Switch Pro will be an entirely new platform with its own games and backwards compatibility with Switch, but Pro-only games won't run on the original Switch or the new Switch Mini. Screenshot this post and remember it at this year's E3.

I mean, this isn't exactly groundbreaking news.
All you did was copy paste what happened to the 3DS with the N3DS.
It's like "if X happens wich is exactly the same as Y, then it's gonna be X".
Not much effort into this prediction.

Doubt it, we'll get a new model, but I really don't think they'll do the whole "Pro" thing so soon, and if they do there will barely be any games that actually isolate themselves.
30million already own switches and the number keeps growing.
Nothing big or notable would be released as a hypothetical pro only game
I could see a handheld only switch being a thing, as weird as that sounds
I think what ever update does come will just offer more QOL buffs VS some major change to hardware and features

How about u neck urself and screenshot that.

You're literally describin the wii u and that's why you're wrong.

Nintendo as dumb and backwards as it is, wouldn't do it again.

We are getting 2 new models.

>kotaku.com/report-nintendo-is-releasing-two-new-switch-models-1833535450

if there is switch pro exclusive games then fuck Nintendo and I will never support these greedy slanted eye gooks again

What?

The speed at which it came out is the issue. The DSi/New 3DS were both four years into their console's lifespans. This is barely over two.

>exclusives
Doubt it, they are trying to get rid of that.

>charge port still on bottom of console
REEEEEEEE

>report

Stop

This literally happens every generation
The ONLY time this was ever significant enough was with Gameboy Color only carts but also, by that point the original GB was already almost 10 years old so that was a bit more reasonable

>pro tag line

I hate when gaming shit uses it. It’s not professional it’s a fucking game system.

Lucky, I was about to buy a Switch. Guess I'll wait for the uberswitch to come out.

Original report is from the wsj, and they have a good track record for these kinds of things.

They said the same thing last year and nothing happened.

>backwards compatibility
BUT THE SWITCH HAS NO GAMES

>switch lasting for only 2 years
op's brain is the size of a pea

>wsj.com/articles/nintendo-plans-new-version-of-switch-next-year-1538629322
>Nintendo Plans New Version of Switch Next Year
They said a new model is coming in 2019. Now they've updated the report to say 2 new models are coming.

so fucking glad I didn't get a switch yet
my god I was going to get one early this march but I held off and bought a pistol instead

Even if true there wouldn't be more than 1 or 2 pro exclusives like what happened with Xenoblade for the New3DS

They said it was going to release in 2019 even last year.

Very unlikely, the New 3DS had about 2 or 3 exclusive games. I doubt they will pull something like that at all.

That would be super anti consumer.

Tuesday for Nintendo then. They already did this with N3DS.

Ugly useless piece of trash

N3DS was only like 2-3 years in.

Plus at worst if they do make a more powerful model it’ll be:
Switch but with a new coat of paint
(And boosted internals but we’ll never admit it)

it’s ok, I purchased a switch to play smash and smash only.
I still need a fallback game tho, probably pokemon, and that is already announced on switch1.0

So I’m fine, HAHA FUCK YOU.

So at the end of January almost exactly 2 months ago when nintendo president said they aren't considering a hardware revision was that just a lie? Or are you saying they started considering it and planning for it in the last 2 months?

How about you leak some spec too so i can laugh without holding back

You slut. Make sure to buy the new Switch or I'll turn you into my cumdumpster.

>useless
nah
youtube.com/watch?v=256aNCB4AVo
>ugly
I'll give you that. But its still a shotgun pistol

I want to say it'd make sense since literally every Switch currently out is capable of complete piracy. I assume that should this happen, the only real difference is an overhaul in software to stem the piracy issue for a few months.

WSJ is reporting it will be two models
I'll bet $100 its a "mini" version that's portable only and a non portable version with no upgrade in graphics or games you can play

Attached: 1504096298277.gif (400x400, 10K)

That would be most terrible move i ever seen in gaming market but this is Nintendo so i believe you.

Of course it's a fucking lie. Admitting you're going to release a new version of a product that far in advance would destroy your sales.

dumb murricunts loading up on guns to kill each other faster

If they said there would be revisions then a lot of people wouldn't have bought the original.

no it doesnt happen "literally every generation." games are/were not exclusive to ps4pro, xbone x, ps2 slim, ps3 slim, etc.
Retard.

who cares, only dumb dumbs and kids play nintendo anyway.

The New (tm) Nintendo switch and the newer switch U mini DS

No, the 3ds came out in 2011. The n3ds came out in 2015.

>implying Nintendo would be stupid enough to pull another DSi

shut it or I’ll shove my foot in your mouth:P

Can Switch Pro run RDR2?

More like my cock in your mouth.

I have a hacked switch and I barely use it, still wondering if I should go and sell it and just get a switch pro when it inevitably happens. I just keep waiting for worthwhile switch homebrew or mods, but it turns out that all I really want on it is multiplayer, and ever since they took away free online I've had no reason to play it.

The dsi, in hindsight, kind of sucked. It couldn't play gba games, the camera sucked ass, and the dsiware games weren't really that good. Flipnote was cool, I'll give you that, but was it really enough to justify buying a whole new console which lacked GBA support?

Can you put all the emulators on it and play multiplayer, docked/undocked? NES, SNES, N64, GCN. PSX, PS2? I was thinking of hacking mine.

>Useless
>go to a store
>ask for a switch
>show gun
>get switch for FREE

Remember how nintendo was going to make n3DS exclusive games and then literally the only one was that shitty xeno port

>switch sussesor doesn’t mean a hardware revision

>he doesn’t know
Kek

And just like n3DS, PS4Pro and XB1X no one will make use of the exclusivity, then.

Just like the 3DS XL lie. Look it up, it was just a few days between them lying and announcing it.

Dunno, I could look into it. Just low-priority when the bigger issue, desu, is that I don't go out and don't have friends locally since I recently moved. I suppose then it's more that issue than other things. Plus I've been playing all of those systems for decades now, and still own them too. If I wanted to play a game on them, I'd more likely just get that game and play it on the real hardware than emulate it on a switch, esp. since right now I don't have a reason to go out.

I guess in reflecting on it, the problem isn't the switch so much as I haven't made new friends locally yet. Appreciate the input, however irrelevant it was to my end result.

There were a couple other games that were N3DS-exclusive, but most were exclusive only in the sense that on original model they were borderline-unplayable.

So a Vita and a Vita TV?

Pc fag here wake me up when switch is emulated thanks
Don't care about this phablet wunnabe shit I don't even think it will be as fast as a ps4 let alone a xbox one x making it a downgrade even compared to a regular ps4 or low end pc
I'd rather game on a phone desu if it absolutely had to be mobile

This
Fuck this moron your replying too aye
Ffs pc games are backwards compat to the very first games 50+ years ago
Fuck this exclusive shit
>DURR your just dragging people with the better consoles down
Then call it a switch 2 or something else

It would be neat to see it as a "better on pro" situation. Games like Daemon x Machina and Astral Chain look like they could really benefit from having more horsepower, but it would also suck if the potential consumer base was lowered by making them pro exclusive.

>pc games are backwards compat to the very first games 50+ years ago
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOOK AT THIS RETARD

It's not physically possible to make it more powerful than the gpd win 2. You'll need more cooling and more battery and more expensive stuff like in top tier phones.

You can play emulators on it. All console gens up to N64 and PSX run well. Some PSX games like Tekken 3 are a bit choppy. There's a gamecube emulator but it's very slow. No PS2 emulation. As for multiplayer, if you play games you pirated online, you're most likely going to get banned. However if you have a NAND backup from before you got banned, you can just restore it and you'll be good. If you play games you legally own, you won't get banned. There currently isn't a hack that lets you play online without paying for the service. Honestly this thing isn't as good as the gpd win when it comes to playing emulators, as you can actually play netplay, play most gcn and Wii games on dolphin almost flawlessly, play PS2/Dreamcast games, and even emulate some Wii u games with cemu.
The SNES virtual console games were also n3ds exclusive but by that point snes emulation on the 3ds was basically perfect.

yeah
it makes sense. I remember reading some report saying that most people either used theirs portable only or docked only, so they could be going after those types. It will likely have a cheaper price point as well, by around $50
and people who want both options can just get an OG switch np

Is that how worried Nintendo is about piracy?

it always pays off not buying day one, same thing happened with the3ds

if you do a switch data transfer, is all of your hours played transferred too? i have 600 hours in splatoon 2 and i want the "pro" switch when it comes out

So glad I didn't buy a switch yet. Now I can get the Pro.

Switch is just getting games, and there's going to be a revised version? I hope not, kinda fucks me over. I'm not buying a new switch. I have a good PC for multiplats anyways.
I swear to God if Animal crossing is exclusive to the Switch2 I'm gonna fucking break a mirror. It's all I wanted.

>what is emulation/sandbox vms
Actual retard here folks

>Taurus
even the switch is a better self defense weapon, at least you can throw it at someone and it won't dismantle UNTIL it hit's the person's head

Nigger it's rumors

This would be the death of nintendo. The Pro is propably just a boxed version with pro controllers included.

>cheap handheld-only version released together with new pokemon
This is too realistic. I believe it.

TWO KICKSTANDS?

Of all the websites you could link this article from, you chose Kotaku.

Computer have been using the same architecture since the IBM PC in the 80s. (We use AMD64 now, but it's compatible with x86).
You could boot up FreeDOS on the machine you used to post that and play Commander Keen.

You can emulate on consoles too dude.

They'll have a slightly more powerful system that allows for the full clock speeds of gpu/CPU/ram allowing for better performance in games. And maybe even letting Devs have access to this to begin with can squeeze better shit out for games.


Also probably a better battery and altered screen.

Good now you can shoot yourself in the face with it

>guncucks

>waitfags still holding out
hope springs eternal I guess

nice meme
just because brazil police still use 30 yo guns that are never repaired or maintained doesn't mean they are all like that

Switch Slim
Switch Portable (doesn't dock/undock)

There.
They're not going to split their playerbase with a retarded Pro model when the default model is selling like hotcakes at almost launch price.

Jewtendo have been lying for decade and getting away with it due to the rabid fanbase.

i legit feel like a retard for buying a switch, got it only for smash and mhxx. should i hack it?

"Switch Pro" ain't no "more gigaflops" pro. more like Deluxe model with a bigger battery and AMOLED screen.

This is Nintendo, user

Pro model will happen no matter you like it or not

No it wont. They will simply make a cheaper version that uses less battary and doesn't need active cooling due a slightly better soc on a non trash process. And then in 2-3 years they will launch a way better switch 2. because that brings the most profit to Nintendo. Don't forget that the N3DS was a flop, nintendo isn't going to split it's usebase again.

If you FUCKING THINK im doing ANYTHING other than waiting 5 years to buy a new nintendo console, you've lost your goddamn mind.
I've owned a switch for 2 years and all I have to show for it is smash and splatoon. FOR FUCKS SAKES all these ports remakes and indie shovelware garbage games this shit console has shat out. Nintendo you've fucked everyone over too hard
