No shot.Maybe they will be moving away from physical media and the Switch 2 will be download only. Is that possible?

Would be silly going through all the effort of proprietary cartridges only to not use them at all in one of the systems.Maybe they will be moving away from physical media and the Switch 2 will be download only. Is that possible?
Probably true but it's fun speculating. Also people want a hero after the PS5 Pro at $9000 or whatever.I'm skeptical, a chine source could also mean that it is just another Steamdeck knock-off with a Switch inspired design. maybe even trying to get some hype for a kickstarter or something.
Looks to safe and iterative, just a bigger faster switch. I think steam deck clones will snatch away nintendo market share since both platforms providing similar experience now
The renders already show a cartridge slot. I think you'll just have to install games from the cartridge to faster storage rather than just run them straight from the cart, like you have had to do on PlayStation and Xbox for ages now.Maybe they will be moving away from physical media and the Switch 2 will be download only.

Yeah from personal experience going from FSR to a DLSS 3.0 card was straight up black magic.None of those can provide DLSS. Which stomps all over FSR or any other temporal upscaling solution.
Yep, it's the closest comparison we got I'd say.The 2050 has 2048 cuda cores, T239 has 1536 cuda cores...
So more like a downlocked 2050 in terms of performance
The same type of SD cards people have been using in their Switch aren't going to cut it for games releasing over the next 10 years. 2100MB/s internal storage will be just fine, <150MB/s SD cards, no.SD cards exist, are thankfully not that expensive anymore, and are fast enough these days to not be an issue.

Real ballers wait for Switch QuattroShould I buy a Switch 2 or just wait for a Switch 3 at this point??
It's also not compatible with anyone who has hands larger than a three year-old.Joy Cons purpose is not compatible with a D Pad

This might be a stupid question but how does DLSS work.. If it’s DLSS 3.5, will it always be DLSS 3.5, or is it possible to improve through software updates (no hardware changes)?![]()

There aren't two screens. One is the current Switch for comparison purposes.I think that the two screen and two prices rumors comes from LCD $399 and OLED $449
What do you have against purple?Not PURPLE!

It should be able to be updated as long as Ampere cards have support. Framegen is of course a non go, but the rest of DLSS 3.5 is still available.This might be a stupid question but how does DLSS work..

They can update it, they lock DLSS iterations behind GPUs to make you buy the latest one, with something like a console it'll get better long term support than "rotational" Nvidia PC gaming GPUs I think.This might be a stupid question but how does DLSS work..

Probably DLSS 1080p for handheld form, and DLSS 1440p/4k in docked just based on power projections.So how strong is this new gpu and what’s the resolution? 1080p or 720p?
Switch 1 has 4gb of ram and this(if true) has 12gb of ram that is also much faster.can someone explain the performance in DBZ powerscalling term?

DLSS >3.5 is quite literally insane and that alone will buy the Switch unfair advantages over the other consoles, though, it'll make it massively power efficient because it barely has to lift heavy weights to achieve the exact same look as other hardware.
There's also frame generation etc, Nvidia has all kinds of tools.
All very interesting. Thanks!Well on the PC, the same old hardware (RTX 20 series) launched with shitty DLSS 1.0, and then went on to run 2.0 (transformative), and then went on to run 3.0 (sans frame gen), so all of the meaningful evolutions of the A.I. upscaler tech were done in software and supported by the same old original tensor cores. So the Ampere tensor cores in the Switch 2 will at least run all of the existing DLSS libraries, and presumably could take on new iterations going forward, or maybe even custom designed for the Switch 2 itself. All of that should be in play given the hardware it will have to use it.
I'm more interested in knowing if devs can literally take existing DLSS dll libraries and basically apply them to Switch 2 dev kit build directly, or if they have to go through some kind of translation step to be compatible with the Switch 2 libraries (which are different from DirectX, OpenGL, Vulkan, etc.). Hopefully it's an easy implementation. Or I wonder if Nvidia and Nintendo will be writing their own DLSS versions just for the Switch 2?
Well this is obviously fake. The left joycon has a normal d-pad. Also, there’s no way the switch 2 logo is gonna be italics like that. Looks weird.![]()

Deleted posts = Nintendo ninjas = 100% confirmed real.
Based on this specs, PS4 handheld and Series S docked with better 4K(R) due to Nvidia DLSSSo how strong is this new gpu and what’s the resolution? 1080p or 720p?
I hope they keep them mostly the same form factor (it keeps things from getting too bulky in my bag), but I do hope they have official joy con grips that stay on even when attached in portable mode.I really hope the controllers aren’t flat again.
It should still outperform the PS4 by a lot in CPU, but GPU wise in less obvious ways due to the age of the architecture. I think that's a good ballpark, yeah.Based on this specs, PS4 handheld and Series S docked with better 4K(R) due to Nvidia DLSS
Yes, CPU single core performance is better than current gen machines.It should still outperform the PS4 by a lot in CPU, but GPU wise in less obvious ways due to the age of the architecture. I think that's a good ballpark, yeah.
Haha died..Mein Furer, Steiner.. couldn't secure the OLED...
It's totally real. The person is desperately trying to save face and downplay the leak because they know what's coming for them, they assumed the NDA was over, fucked around and found out. I'm following the whole story as we speak.It would be hilarious if this ended up being a fake from a 3D print enthusiast and the real Switch 2 ended up being some sort of Wii/DS insanity.
But, I kinda think it's legit. There's more coming out to collaborate it, and for what it's worth the main board there is *not* a Switch 1 board despite looking obviously designed to fit in a Switch-like device, and has similarities like the cutout where SD card adapter went on Switch 1. So it's less likely someone 3D printed a shell and plopped a board in there to trick us.

He needs to reconcile with Konami so we can get another.
