I mean, there wasn't a lot wrong with the switch to begin with.
It couldn’t even play first-party games at a solid 30 fps, and the sticks on the joycons were infamously shitty.
Both of which are fixed with doing the same, but upgrading the hardware...?
Yeah exactly. If those things are fixed and it's got a better battery and CPU/GPU and more RAM, that's great. Nintendo had a history of just going in completely different directions with every generation, so it's good to see them just try and improve on a good thing.
