It is bad. But Nintendo never had cutting edge tech.
They are behind 9th gen which laumched on 7nm. 5 years later they still can’t reach it.
Nothing to serious to be honest.
Looking at the stuff coming out of Open AI’s Sora video creator is crazy. The investment Microsoft made into OpenAI is probably the most important thing they’ve done in the companies history. I really hope the studios can take advantage of some of what will be available to them:

I’m still here because you single handedly destroyed Xbox.

Once again, this is a misunderstanding of the way pipelines for rendering work. Sure it’ll be slower than the other consoles, but the key thing is that the chipset supports modern technology and engines.
It’s why the “from 2016 mobile chip set” was able to run well, as it might have been old but it supported the tech that the Xbox One and PS4 supported. That’s why it is able to run games, and the new Switch will be no different, probably supporting DLSS 3 or some custom version of the tech.
I hate everything about this.
Seriously though, I can appreciate the tough spot Xbox Era is in.
In a more rational world people would understand that it’s both possibly true that MS talked about all of these things and even made preparations and then also decided not to go forward with it. Unfortunately I don’t think this world is that rational. 
Being right “only” 9 out of 10 times shouldn’t discredit XE and there is no other fan-run site/podcast that offers everything XE does.
And on top of that I love the fact that the community here simply loves games no matter what console they’re on. If there are overzealous Xbox fans deciding not to hang out here, I’m not sure if they would fit in anyways? But I hope they do reconsider.

I actually believe Nintendo is scared of releasing the next console because of the cycle they have. Success then failure like Wii to Wii U. If they start slipping, Xbox and PS will be the one to tell them “First time?” What they got is safe and stable. Any mistake, bye bye profit.

And yet more layoffs:
Blackbird Interactive (Homeworld 3 and Minecraft Legends). Apparently this is due to partners pulling out various deals.

I know most of you dont care/believe this, but Nate Drake has just said new Banjo Kazooie game has been recently kind of rebooted, but it is for the best fate of the project.
For me any reassurance the game could exist is pure bliss.
The fictional Uncharted character - Nate Drake ?

Has he said if it’s a remake or a sequel?
No as far as I am aware.
Reboot could be like how Tomb Raider 2013 was a reboot and brand new all around.
No, what’s being implied is the development of the project has been rebooted.
