There better be an Animal Crossing edition nu-Switch

I was going to buy a switch, now I can wait.

This is going to push the Switch past the ps4 sales.
Switch will actually outsell the ps4

How much upgrade does new model need to run game from this gen properly?

About 12
Maybe 13

>Switch plus: Original Switch but with a better screen, slightly better internals and build quality. Still a hybrid.
>Switch mini: Handheld switch with built in joycons and no rumble and a better screen. Still able to be displayed on a TV.
BASED.

this "leak" is bullshit.
The reason the Switch is weak is because it NEEDS to be underclocked to run effectively.
If you run the Tegra at stock speeds the battery will bulge under the heat, it will overheat, the case of the console breaks and even if all this didn't happen the battery life would be abysmal.
Also Nintendo is not using Tegra again after it made hacking and piracy so easy with RCM.

This "leak" is suggesting the console that's heavily underclocked for heat and power usage will for some reason double its processors and overclock them.
It's retarded.

>Tegra x2 overclocked
I fucking hate reddit holy shit

>dude the switch is a console they can just put high end processors in the tiny box and it will just work just put in more batteries nintendo you dumdums
>heat? jut add another fan it's easy

Isn't this because of the exploit that allowed piracy?

Yeah, this is probably running Tegra T214 Mariko

>mfw I just bought a switch

Same.

that has been fixed with current models on the market already.

you're still winning as long as you have a hackable unit.
Remember, firmware doesn't matter only the serial number matters.
You did check the serial number before buying right?

They better not add any extra processing power, or sell them without de-tachable joycons.

That shit would just split the player base and make everything a nightmare for developers.

Checked your mom's serial number.

it was fated to happen

>Hacking
Look at this loser.

wut

Is this a reference to that fourteen-year-old meme, Nintendo On?

>bought an old model
>can't even use it as an emulation machine
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It sounds like you don't actually want to play video games user.

Aren't currently model already have overheat issue? Also adding fan in handheld device is very stupid idea

believing this is literally like thinking Yea Forums direct leaks are true.
Nintendo president himself has denied the possibility of new models.

Attached: 1519373713576.png (632x1024, 789K)

That's more about the developers needing to WANT the games to run properly.

I bought a switch to play switch games.

oh great a half new mariozelda emulator

>200GB SD card is already full of Switch exclusives with all their DLC
>also have games on external HDD connected to the dock
>"you don't want to play video games"
???
The Switch already has a fan.
you'd play a lot more if you could steal them.
All the big games get leaked too, piratechads got to play Smash before all the losers with unhacked systems.

how many of those games have you played for more than 10 minutes?

>buy a switch cause i wanted smash bros, BotW and octopath
>literally less then a year later they switch to upgraded specs
son of a bitch.

>the heat meme
Faggot, my 300€ xiaomi has liquid cooling system, and I run wii games at full speed and phone doesn't even get hot. It also can last 5 hours of battery while emulating.
Stop with the excuses, Nintendo made a functional, yet cheap console to get better profits

well you got to play those games, so what's the matter?

all of them except Bayonetta 1+2
you're an idiot.

>yfw they just name it the New Nintendo Switch

it's the timing is actual hot trash for me user, thats why i'm sad.

Why even buy the first iteration of a console when they just going to come out with a new model anyways.

>“You would be wrong to think the enhanced version is similar to what Sony did with PS4 Pro and the other is just a cheap alternative that looks very similar to some past hand-held machines, say, Sony’s PlayStation Vita,” a source told The Wall Street Journal.
What is it then?

wii emulation is easy, no shit a phone can do it.
The tegra processor in the switch was built for the nvidia shield tv, which despite being a 2015 product blows all other android devices out of the water for gaming.
This processor needed to be underclocked to function optimally in the switch's form factor.
We know this, you can overclock the switch to a clockspeed that's BELOW the tegra's actual stock clockspeed and the battery with bulge out.

Phones have a high core count ARM based processor and specially designed GPU that makes them fine for viewing high resolution content but shit for any complex computing.
They can do a lot for a passively cooled device but you simply can't find games with graphics as good as the Switch is capable of on android.
Even the S10 only manages 60fps in Fortnite on high settings.

some people aren't poor.
If you can't afford $400 every 3 years then maybe you should consider stepping out of your mom's basement and getting a job.

Hardly. Both the piss4 and the bone have hardware upgrades and that's what devs work with. If a games runs like shit on the base model then the answer is upgrade.
please ignore that it runs like shit on the enhanced version of the console too.

>mfw people said base consoles would still be the standard and pro consoles would just be an improvement
fucking never falling for that meme again.

So how legit is this 'leak' really? Ive seen a lot of back and forth on this topic in the archives but I'm partially sceptical about it all.
But if its real this is some bad timing for me, I was hopping to buy a switch this week for mghu, dragons dogma, and some future stuff.

I still don't understand this:
>“You would be wrong to think the enhanced version is similar to what Sony did with PS4 Pro and the other is just a cheap alternative that looks very similar to some past hand-held machines, say, Sony’s PlayStation Vita,” a source told The Wall Street Journal.

So basically...
Don't expect the new high end model a huge upgrade like the PS4 to PS4 Pro.
Don't expect the lower end model to be really small like a PS Vita
Is that it?

>overclocked tegra 2 chip
dumbest shit ever
i will cut off my dick live on stream if a fucking overclocked chip of anything is in a switch pro

>Nintendo president himself has denied the possibility of new models.

He has every reason to deny them, and every reason not to. He's a businessman.

You just brag in greentext user.
You're much more about having the means to play games than actually playing them.

And then you ridicule others for not caring about doing things the same way as you.

Get a fucking grip.

Because I'm not poor and bought the Switch at launch, which I have thoroughly been enjoying and made good memories with so far.

You do know that "overclocked" really just means "clocked higher than the manufacturer's retail setting" and that the manufacturer can decide on a pretty broad range right?

The existing Switch shifts the clock frequenzy up and down depending on whether it's docked or undocked. Does that mean it is sometimes overclocked or underclocked?

That's the second time the WSJ talks about this and it's backed by tech and market analysts that have inside knowledge and aren't the run of the mill tranny leakers you're used to.

I predicted this to be the case, but ffs if the smaller model can't fit in a normal pocket its not worth shit

Really though nintendo could just release 2 budget tier models, one for tv only, one for portable only, charge same price as each other, and things would be just fine

>Nintendo president himself has denied the possibility of new models.

Hahaha, no, that's precisely what DIDN'T happen. He just denied that the management had plans to market them within the foreseeable financial future.

His remark was so vague and useless it almost admitted that new models were coming.

The specs leak are unconfirmed rumors, the new models existing are legit.

>you'd play a lot more if you could steal them.
This is a straight lie. The more games you can get for free, the less value they have and the more backed up your backlog gets. I know this for a fact because I only played around 3 of the 10+ games I pirated on my old Wii U.

>the new models existing are legit.
Only in that it seems extremely likely to be true.

oh boy a switch mini and a switch super mini, one won't have detachable joycons and won't work with a dock but you can pair joycons with it if you like, the other is just smaller with new joycons and a new dock.

I'll buy the Super Nintendo Switch, please.

>you'd play a lot more if you could steal them.

Yeah no. I found this to just not be the case for me.

Here's the wall street article wsj.com/articles/nintendo-to-launch-two-new-switch-models-11553494773

They call it the "cheaper" model for a reason.
Not necessarily "smaller".

>one of the benefits of console gaming is that you don't have to upgrade it every couple of years
hilarious how things work nowadays

You're being stupid on purpose.
I can guarantee you that you won't have to upgrade to a newer Switch model to play the games.

I don't want to be left behind with my old inferior Swirch though if a new one comes out already

How is this a positive?
New games will be optimized for the new model and I'll get 15fps or what?

Attached: 4k9o1_500.png (497x480, 218K)

Well, but you don't. The PS4 still plays all games, the Pro only plays some of them better. The same can't be said about PCs where new games eventually become unplayable.

wall street has no source though, it's literally "expert predicting" toilet paper articles reposted until some greasy bal snoyboy present it as truth.

Sell the old one.

Unless they can be hacked I don't care. Simple as that. I barely touch my switch as it is and it's hacked and literally loaded with tons of great games.

Attached: 1539382279661.gif (300x250, 31K)

It happened multiple times with the Gameboy, GBA, DS and 3DS. Nintendo are just doing what they've always done with portable consoles, but if this leads to a dedicated and more powerful TV based unit I'll be perfectly happy.

If this is anything like the New 3DS, this will barely be an upgrade and you won't be missing anything if you keep the old model.

I just realized what if they put an underclocked x2 in a vita style form factor
Wouldnt need active cooling as itd be more efficient and underclocked. It'd be able to be docked and do better graphics but in handheld it'd just be the original but wirh longer battery life and much smaller. I think that'd be ideal.

Attached: spook.jpg (568x516, 109K)

Just like how you don't need to upgrade from PSP1K to PSP3K to play all of the games, but many games benefit from the PSP3K's higher clock speed.
Or how you don't need to upgrade to N3DS to play Pokemon Sun & Moon, but on the O3DS, any battle involving more than 1 enemy trainer drops the fps below 20.

The WSJ claims that industry people have seem the models already and the journalist that wrote the article is trustable.

MH4U was only enjoyable on the N3DS

Hack the old one, dumdum

It's bullshit the moment it says "Pascal Architecture".

Didn't Nintendo literally tell investors they are not doing any new Switch models just a little while ago?

I can't imagine them lying to all their shareholders like that.

Attached: Nintendo_Doesn't_Switch™.png (1217x1217, 89K)

How would the framerate in a pokémon battle ever be a fucking issue or hindrance?
It isn't. And you don't need a New3DS to play Sun & Moon at all.

Don't be stupid on purpose anymore.

how will this save it? no blockbuster games for at least five years.

He said they aren't planning to launch a "successor" soon, as in, a new console.

Nintendo console is fastest hacked console in gaming history. I don't see how new model going to break the record

They did not actually say that.
Their statement was just a vague assurance to the public for marketing purposes, to make sure they didn't hold off from buying Switches for Christmas.

>claims
>no source
>only trannies blogs online to back up that shit
You eat it because you want it, but you know that it's fake and in a few week your "trutable source" will claim "the informer lied" or "goobergate troll did it". Like always.

Setting adie that it doesn't need saving, this won't save it. Console revisions very rarely save a system. It just assists in keeping it relevant as an option to people who haven't yet bought one.

Wasn't the whole put of consoles so that you don't have to upgrade like PC's every year? Looks like you are being duped by chinks faggot. Doubt you can afford a 2,000 dollar PC like I can.

>Been waiting for the inevitable revision since launch
>Switch Pro might be a thing
Sweet vindication.

Attached: 1549550126161.gif (461x346, 149K)

Sounds to me like you won't be buying it anyway, if you already aren't playing your hacked Switch, user.

So it's not like your opinion has a lot of persuasive weight to it.

>forced to buy another 300 dollar console just to play future switch multiplats or w/e at 30fps
This kinda pisses me off.
Obviously devs will only optimize for the new Switch, not the old one.

>still no games
shitch is pathetic

reggie is no more, so they can do whatever

Pokémon Sword and Shield and Animal Crossing are both this year and they're as huge as it gets.

>new models
>just for a glorified port machine that can't even get the latest multiplats
>as well as a nintenbro rehash bin
What's the fucking point of even owning one?

I'm not persuading anyone besides the faggots that think a non rcm hack is ever coming
Switch OS is more secure than a nuns asshole

>pro version already confirmed to be nowhere near as strong as vanilla ps4/xbone

Why tho? What's the point then?

>3ds era pokeshit
>autistic crossing
Where are unique exclusive games?

As this user said this isn't a leak by an internet fag wanting to be popular, but feel free to be unable to see the difference.

>two consoles
>but only one exclusive game
Based

>portable Switch sells like crazy
>non-portable sells like shit and bombs
This is how will happen, someone Screencap this.

Both are nintendo exclusives what are you talking about?

>portable Switch sells like shit and bombs
>non-portable sells like crazy
This is how will happen, someone Screencap this.

It wasn't Reggie, it was Furukawa who said it. And he never said "no Switch model this year" like clickbait sites noticed at the time.

I'm not surprised considering the usual nintendo retard believed some random cunt on Twitter about Persona 5 coming to switch TWICE.

Next, feel free to tell me how weebshit doesn't count.

Attached: H2x1_NSwitch_AstralChain_image1600w.jpg (1600x800, 394K)

That's still the point of consoles, and you still don't have to upgrade.

Let's hope devs don't pull a XC3DS kind of deal, otherwise any port tailored towards that console is gonna underperform hard and 3rd parties will keep ignoring nintendo anyway

Meh.

>b-but those doesn't count!
Always a classic.

>huge upgrade like the PS4 to PS4 Pro.
>huge update
lol

No, this is actually first unique shitch game. On the third year of lifecycle. Impressive.

There's a laundry list of things they can improve on the Switch that aren't related to processing power.

Well what did the other consoles get in 5 years?

What's impressive is that you can still imagine yourself being funny while driving that narrative.

I literally only play docked.

Wii U got Splatoon, XCX, Devils Third, Fatal Frame V, Mario Maker, Hyrule Warriors, #FE.
All games were unique gameplay or idea wise.
And on shitch we only have boring sterile "sequels" like splatoon "2".

>cheaper more portable Switch will probably cut the vibration because developers aren't using it
But what about my titty games??

>sequels and rehashes
lol I thought you meant actually unique games user

Only FF is sequel in my list. And its biggest and most beautiful title in Project Zero series with interesting control of camera obscura.

But developers ARE using it.
And I'm not sure they'd be the place to save either way.

When putting together the tech choices for Switch, they already did away with a long long list of parts from previous systems. So I think they're good.

>mario
>zelda
>FE
>Xenoblade
>shooter rehash
lol

>Hyrule Warriors
>Unique
Only unique thing about that game are the designs of Link, Impa and Zelda, the original villains and Lana.

Arms and Mario + Rabbids in 2017, Octopath Traveler in 2018.

Ok, you doesnt own Wii U and never played games listed above.

Well you don't own a Switch so I'm not sure what your point is

>Arms
LMAO
It was forgotten before release.
Dont give a fuck about Ubi shit or Square shit.

There are ZERO reasons to own shitch right now, if you Wii U owner. SmtV is vapoware at this point along with MP4.

Thanks for proving my point I guess

You can laugh, but the game has still sold almost two million copies.

Wheterh you and your friends have forgotten about it doesn't make it less profitable or fun.

You could point to the numbers that other games manage, but that's slightly besides the point it.

Says the guy pretending devils third is good

I just bought a motherfucking switch, and I can no longer return it...

Fuck it, I'll just get a gayman laptop

>If you are this thing that I'm not, then there's is NO REASON for you do do this thing which I also wouldn't do

Powerful and insightful messages straight from a trusted source.

You're making very little sense.

You bought a system you can no longer return, supposedly with the intention to play it, but now that perhaps in the future an improved version is coming out, you won't play it, and will instead spend even more money on an entirely different system.

What does that say about the reasoning you exhibited when purchasing a Switch in the first place?

We finally got a new home Vitabros

Well yeah, the Switch is getting all the lewd panty quest games.

You guys know this two new model is not gonna be last, right?

Newer model might get even more spec upgrade and come with actual VR that not just cardboard

And let's be fair, what you're actually looking at in the game is an endless horde of batch rendered enemies plucked from disparate games, and some scenery that doesn't even attempt fitting in with ANY established Zelda art style.

Nobody cares about the VR, man.

>"""VR"""
I sleep. Wake me up when full dive VR is a thing.

With this logic you'd never buy anything...

>Custom Tegra X2 Chips, Overclocked
That's all you need to know to know this is bullshit. Muh gamer buzzwords.

>Most devs can't be assed to make docked and/or undocked run at proper framerate and resolution.
>Introduce another console with new hardware they won't optimize for.

I call bullshit. Plus wasn't this supposed to happen during the holidays according to some jap version of WSJ?

Attached: 1431533841355.jpg (552x600, 171K)

The whole NINTENDO WON thing doesn’t really work without a exclamation mark.

It would be 12nm or 7nm chips, so even if they are based on pascal/X2, they’re going to be much faster than the 16nm X2 that came out 2 years ago. I would guess base xbox/ps4 performance at the very least.

new 3DS definitely made a difference. but it seems like devs didnt try to take advantage of the increased performance.

seriously. try comparing both 3DS's at the same time with mh4u its crazy how much better the new one is.

Then he'd go to the library and read for free, meet a cute college girl who's studying, and live a happy life far away from Yea Forums

are nuns easy to fuck in the ass?

>WSJ making "prediction based on muhpatterns"
>game blogs takes it as an official announcement
>despite none of the actors i nthe industry that should be involved in it having changed anything in their plans for this year, not the slightest swing in hardware components production, nor any software or service projects being launched
gullible.

This. They could be in supersekrit mode to pull big reveal on E3, but more likely possibility is nothings going to happen.

Plot twist: new Switch model come with 3D screen and feature all 3DS port games

Nothing more

What are the differences? Better screen and better battery?
I mostly played my switch plugged to my tv.

>this cope

Anyone that believes in this article despite having NO public announcements by nintendo is a goddamn retard.

>retarded voice chat implementation
>retarded tabletop charging mechanism
>ugly af handheld screens
>underpowered

Yep, waiting for the definitive edition switch was the right choice.

I'd go for an actually portable version. As in, pocket-size.

They also dinnied that they were going to drop the Wii U.

no way fag, nintendo is done with dual screens after the wiiU.

I canm only think of 4 or 5 games that made use of the upgrade of the new 3ds.

same
I got memed anyway tho, and got the nu-3ds
I'm still mad

>he believes this new version will solve all those problems
user...

Eventually one of these "reports" will be correct right lol
