Sure, it has about half the base ps4’s specs, but uses over 100 less watts under load or over 70 less watts for the slim, and over 120 for the pro. Same goes for the ps5, the xboxes(1, 1S, 1X, SS, and SX). Meaning if nintendo could do more of that, we can get a console stronger than the ps4 that uses less than 20 watts of power under load.
The switch uses less wattage than the wii, and while that isn’t a surprise, that is still just going to show how cost efficient nintendo is.
