Title: Nintendo Switch 2: Alleged next-generation Switch specs, unproven Nintendo Switch Next details, and supposed Joy-Con 2 sketches fuel the rumor mill
Post by: Redaktion on July 24, 2023, 23:57:38
The would-be next-generation Nintendo Switch leakers have hit Twitter hard recently, with rumors turning up in at least three different and tenuous accounts. Supposed Switch 2 specs have been posted, along with information, including a price limit, about a Nintendo Switch Next. If that wasn't enough, a regular contributor to the Switch 2 rumor mill has had more to say about the Joy-Con 2.

Small handhelds don't need crazy screen resolutions or even 1080p. Ampere-based GPUs might be technically capable of running DLSS3 and it's already got raytracing. 8 GB RAM is all anyone could hope for a Switch 2. Faster 64 GB eMMC would be lame.

Sounds like Nintendo would do all that.

It's 2023 and our phones are all coming with adaptive 2k resolution minimum. No way a switch would target 720p it would be 1080 minimum and 16gb ram otherwise there's zero chance for third party ports to keep coming to the switch 2 unless they make a system that can realistically scale current gen games.

And no third party support does actually hurt the system in the end look at the GameCube and Wii u

I'd call this fake af

The number of ram is concerning. I feel like the Switch successor should have 12 GB of ram at least.

It's not a small handheld.  It's a hybrid system and it needs to be able to play games on a tv with some competency.

The first one seems kinda nice but doesn't make a lot of sense, the first 2 images are photos sneakily took with a phone, but then the other 2 are what looks like 2 frames of a video screeshotted from the a pc, i say video because if they are still images they are useless since they don't show the full product. So seems fake to me.
The second is clearly fake, there's no such thing as a "faster" eMMC, the last eMMC standard version released is the 5.1 and is from 2015, it is still used because it's very cheap but recently even cheaper phones have started going for the UFS memory standard, my phone for example has UFS 2.2 which not only is faster even if not by huge amounts, but has plenty of other qualities that eMMC memories don't have. So this one too seems fake to me.
The last one doesn't make sense either, nintendo makes console that are for everyone, they don't make high tier smartphones or tablets, they don't need to put a 1080p screen with 120hz of refresh rate, if it means 500$ of price. Even sony and microsoft had to add cheaper versions for their consoles because just adding a 500$ at launch was risky choice, they still went out of stock at the beginning but they also had not a lot of consoles ready to ship and there were scalpers. So i think this one is fake too.

this is 100% fake, Nintendo purposefully puts out fake info in order to find out who is leaking info and those joycons are not even viable or usable and they don't make any sense to look like that
