Nintendo Switch OLED The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Edition Pre-Order

What happened to Nintendo, they used to give u a game or two and make it worth the purchase. Lame

I know this will be a collectible and probably fetch north of $500 some day but man, I echo the sentiment that this hardware is really aging. It was slow in 2017 and even slower today. I really hope we see a revision to the hardware soon, when in reality the tegra chip inside is from late 2015…

The only nonsense here is your comment. If you doubled the switches power (it'll probably be at least that much improvement to the next one), it should be easy to run any switch level graphics at 60 FPS. The switch is so weak that even in the most polished nintendo games they often can't break 30 FPS, despite how simple the graphics are for the time. I don't need my graphics to be more advanced, I just want a decent framerate and maybe a bit better anti-aliasing. Your staunch ignorance to the subject just makes you look like a joke.

Switch 2 will almost 100% have DLSS trick to get fake 4K so they can market that. And obviously the hardware will be like a 2 year old cell phone chip. Only a fool would think Nintendo is going to have some state-of-the-art chip that competes head to head with the iPhone 16 powerwise. And sure Steam Deck has 16gb quad channel ram but no way in piss Nintendo does that. Especially since the Xbox Series S has 10gb.

I expect maybe a 4X more powerful chip then the current switch and 8-10gb of ram and 128gb internal memory(64gb also a good chance, I wouldn't put it past Nintendo to be cheap). The screen will most likely be OLED and 720P I would be actually quite shocked if it's better than 720p. And if it is better 900P not 1080p. I wouldn't even put a past Nintendo to have the same seven inch 720p oled screen as the current switch OLED. Maybe they will even do 7.2 inch and even worse ppi lol. I have been thinking that it would be more costly to add this feature but it would be very cool Nintendo type gimmick and that would be some type of wirelessly playing the switch on the TV while undocked. That would bring more gameplay possibilities with using the switch. Almost like the Wii U. Now granted that would cost more to have that built into the dock connected to everybody's TV. But this thing's going to cost more than the regular switch guaranteed.
$399 Oct/Nov 2024 I expect for the Switch 2. Nintendo I doubt will go $499. That's just too pricey for Nintendo. No chance in heck it's $299 or even $349.

I also think Nintendo might include a game with the Switch 2 like the Wii and Wii U. Something that shows off it's new gimmick and features. I know the switch did not come with a game at launch but Nintendo was in a very poor spot. Wii U sold like trash and they were kind of going back to their roots. You play it either undocked like a game boy or play a docked like a GameCube and that was it. So I don't think they needed a game to show off the Switch. The gimmick worked for everyone by just docking it and undocking it. So my guess is the Switch 2 will have a new type of gimmick (possibly wireless docking capability) Mario Kart 9 could be played by 5 people 4 on TV and 1 on the Dock. It will include some type of game to show this off and get people use to it and then sell Mario Kart 9 for $69.99 with the feature.
I also believe Metroid Prime 4 will be a launch game for the Switch 2. It will also same day come to the regular Switch. It will be a good game to show off the new DLSS 4K trickery. It will look nice and shiny and have better textures.

Gimmick will be trojan horse VR if they can put a higher res screen on it. Doesn't mean the handheld games run at the higher res. They will just upscale those in some fashion from the 720p.

That's my gimmick guess. Still might be too early for them to be able to do that at a Nintendo price point. But there's always Switch 3 or a mid cycle update that adds a higher res screen that VR would require.

They did a proof of concept with Labo VR. It was interesting. The 720p was too much of an eye sore tho to want to play it for very long. Maybe as low as 1080p would be good enough.

I know this will be a collectible and probably fetch north of $500 some day but man, I echo the sentiment that this hardware is really aging. It was slow in 2017 and even slower today. I really hope we see a revision to the hardware soon, when in reality the tegra chip inside is from late 2015…
