Anonymous, 04 Mar 2021Game-changing tech?? Raytracing in switch?? Doubt VRS... moreeven the playstation 5 and xbox series x has only enabled ray tracing, with a next gen (tegra x2 was a 2015 system on a chip for 2017 switch), thus, i believe the tegra xavier which probably as powerful as last year snapdragion 865, i doubt it will have enough power to do ray tracing

        nintendo for the last 25 years, offered 3rd stopgap iteration for their portable console, while it's unlikely to be like playstation 4 pro, there will be small updates, such as better screen, maybe bluetooth audio,marginally faster system on a chip, a dock with upscaling to higher resolution.

        I also expect true sucessor to switch to be released around 2023 as nintendo has general trend of next generation portable hardware every 6 years, that would probably be as powerful as ps4 and easily do 60fps at 1080p and i believe next gen switch will have game changer tech, HDR visuals

          Hopefully we get Switch emulator for Android before this cr@p arrives.

          Skyline is working in a Android switch emulator.

          Ryujinx is working in ARM64 port for Switch emulator.

          Don't know about Yuzu.

          DAMON is working on Android Switch emulator.


          Egg NS already has an Android switch emulator but it has a shady background and DRM but still it runs @8-9 fps on Zelda Breath of the wild with SD888

            Fearghast, 04 Mar 2021You know thx to oled you will get lower resolution and lowe... morestill 1080p compared to 720, and oled is not much more effective when nintendo games have soo much color and barely black

              TEtech, 04 Mar 2021BatteryYou know thx to oled you will get lower resolution and lower battery life :D

                Hopefully this will come with updated hardware, to match the newest.

                    If they release this with the same obsolete Tegra chip this is dead on arrival.

                      TEtech, 04 Mar 2021What about a better more efficient processor to run the screen? what has cpu efficiency to do with screen?

                          What about a better more efficient processor to run the screen?
