The underpowered Nintendo Switch will still be great in 2023

Last week, like many Americans, I traveled home for Thanksgiving. I chose not to bring my Switch with me because, well, I've sort of moved on. It's old and underpowered compared to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, and, besides, the last couple years of being a homebody (thanks to lockdowns and remote work) have rendered its portability meaningless to me. And then I actually caught (a very mild case of) COVID and was stranded in Kansas for an extra week with no video games. Readers, I've never appreciated the Switch more than I did when it would have saved me from a week of extreme boredom.
