I've used both, and the PS3 definitely has the edge in raw power. You get better overall performance with the PS3, especially for graphics-intensive games.
Hot take: The Switch isn't about raw power鈥攊t's about portability and great exclusives! If you want power, stick to the PS3 or step up to newer consoles.
Not really. The PS3 was designed with more raw computational power in mind. The Switch focuses more on portability and versatility than sheer horsepower.
