I'm generally not a fan of Nintendo but in this regard I think they
got it right. They hopped off the graphics-train and started focusing
on the experience of the game itself. Now, personally I think they
could have stood to stay on the train for a stop or too longer, but in
general I agree they were right to stop chasing after top-end visuals.
 

I think Nintendo hopped off one generation too early, but they usually release the console for their games and then everyone else has to deal with the hardware.
And Nintendos games usually follow a comic graphics style (with a few exceptions like Metroid) so their games more or less are not that demanding (again the latest Zeldas here being the exception)
And yes they nailed it with their dropping out perfectly! They can be low cost enough and on the other hand they do not have to deal with a hardware race at all and they are on proven ground so no bad surprises are to be expected with a new hardware they design!
I would never buy a 4090 for instance wasted money, you can show off for 2 years then the successor comes out and your card performance now is mid range, given that I have to earn my money and cannot burn it as I please i only upgrade when really needed, and that has been quite a while ago for my aging PC!
