I'll be real, I love what Nintendo chose to do with HDR and I wish more companies would follow suit. I hate it when they make the content crazy bright. Tone mapping for SDR games on PC and Steam Deck is notoriously bad, with oranges getting blown out into vibrant reds instead (I love my steam deck but basically have to leave HDR off).

Subtle but higher color accuracy/range was always HDR's selling point. I'm angry at Nintendo for a lot of things right now, but this is one thing they got right. High quality HDR LCD screen for high longevity and not overturning the colors to blind the hell out of you with "vibrancy."
