That's what I'm asking right now. That gap is massive. We know it's going to close the gap somewhat, but like, and it might, it probably won't be until like we see a full teardown or digital foundry, get their hands on one or whatever. But I would like to see just how big... Two things. How much of an upgrade over the Switch is it?

So in one direction and in the other direction, how much did it close the gap between the other current generation consoles? Because I don't think we're expecting parity with Series X or PlayStation 5. That would be mental. But is it going to be meaningfully closer? I hope so. I think that's what we need.

I would just say, I want to come back to what I said earlier. Do not sleep on that fan in the dark. Cooling is such a big factor in performance. I think that when it's docked, at least, and that extra fan is able to cool, you're going to get so much more performance out of it. I think those are going to be some of the most interesting numbers.

Can I say just one other thing? I've got to bring this up on the show. When they showed the video for Nintendo Voice Chat, the opening 20 seconds of it were hilarious to me. Because she's sitting there on the couch, she's like, alone. But then other voices come in, she's like, but together? And it's like the people at Nintendo literally just fucking discovered online gaming.

It's like, wait, hold on. So she's on her own. But there are other people with her, but not in the same room. You just blew my motherfucking mind. And this obviously is shit that we've been taking for granted for decades. But they're introducing it like they just figured this out. And it's like a fucking mind-blowing concept. Alone? But together? How can you be both?
