In light of Chinese manufacturer, HonSon, and UK retailer GAME putting out accessories recently for the switch mini, I figured I would share details I know of so far regarding the switch mini. The details are from someone I know close to the manufacturing of the switch mini in southeast Asia, where Nintendo has decided to move all mass production for the Switch and other Nintendo products.
Specs >5.8in touch-screen LCD panel with 720p resolution >Same underclocked Nvidia tegra X1 soc found on current switch >4gb ram, 32gb internal storage >One front firing speaker towards bottom of the screen >Detachable Joy cons are not present. This cheapens the cost of the system, and the manufacturing costs of the system as well >Will be playable on TVs via a "mini" dock included with the system >A "mini" controller also comes packaged with the system to be used in docked mode or tabletop. It's essentially the pro controller but a "mini" version of it >Support for microSD cards. Expandable storage up to 2TB like the current switch >Battery life appears to be the same as current switch. Battery is smaller than current switch >Built-in gyroscope on both the handheld and mini controller >IR camera also found on both >USB type C is present on the system, as well as the mini dock and mini controller
Price, release date, and accessories >$219.99 USD, €199.99, £199.99, ¥23,999 >September 20 worldwide release. Launching on the same day as Link's Awakening remake >Available in multiple color variants: neon blue, neon red, and black/grey >Will be officially announced "by the end of June". Not sure what day or where the system will be unvelied >Pre orders starting on the same day as announcement >Nintendo will sell first-party cases for the switch mini in multiple colors variants (as pictured). Will be available to pre order >A handful of other third party accessories for switch mini will be available to pre order as well, the same day the system will be revealed
>Fake leakers have latched on to new Switch Models
Oh brother Remember that one time a fake smash leaker posted with a trip, and it was the username he uses for everything? Then someone found his reddit, along with an account for a gay dating website? Good times

>Price, release date, and accessories >$219.99 USD, €199.99
In case there was any doubt this was bullshit
Landon Hernandez
Still no USB-C on top?
Ayden Taylor
you better watch it too punk
Sebastian Ross
>Some random chink company has insider info!!! >people actually believe this
AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
Adam Martinez
What's the point of this if battery life is the same?
Alexander Morris
>>$219.99 USD, €199.99, £199.99, ¥23,999 lol no it's going to be 300+
Blake James
Yes because what the Switch really needs now is more underpowered hardware
Leo Peterson
Source: your ass.
Alexander Nguyen
No one cares about hardware nigger.
Nintendo have always had the lowest hardware settings. Yet they sell a tonne, why you may ask? Games, they deliver games that have amazing gameplay and replayability. Not cinematic hallway shooters with top quality set pieces that are only interesting for about 3 hours. Suck a giant dick, if you cared about hardware you'd get a PC.

>A "mini" controller also comes packaged with the system to be used in docked mode or tabletop. It's essentially the pro controller but a "mini" version of it Out of all the retarded fake leaks I've ever seen, this has to be the most stupid.
Not enough to justify buying a new console if that’s your criteria Astral Chain, Daemon X Machina look very promising, and The New Fire Emblem might be good.
Wyatt Reyes
>Daemon X Machina Is it less of a laggy piece of shit now? Because the demo was showing it off as a very laggy piece of shit.
Dylan Campbell
what kind of monkey designed this shit
Dylan Smith
I love home console, but is there anything worth paying for a PS4? I'm not interested in cinematic experiences, sports sports sports, stronk women, indies or multiplats
It is slightly less Laggy, but footage doesn’t seem that much cleaner. Definitely wait until it releases to see if people still comment on performance issues.
Evan Garcia
Literally the same image you fucking retard
Nolan Martinez
That's a real shame, it looks fun, but it's unplayable like that. Hope they fix it, somehow.
Anthony Gray
>Rumors
So nothing concrete? Why do you people eat this shit up?
Angel King
I would. I only play on handheld mode and on OG switch its pretty uncomfortable
Julian Parker
Show me Crash Team Racing on the iPad.
Benjamin Scott
Dumb Xbox buttons.
Julian Cruz
They keep saying the 3DS is not dead so who knows
Michael Hall
Not that guy, but since everyone claims the Switch is more powerful than the 360, then show me Halo running on the Switch.
Henry Cook
>new switch mini leak Wow, it's only what, the third one this year?
Nathan Brown
People eat it up because it's what they want or expected. People who don't eat it up obviously expected more.
Grayson Kelly
>>Detachable Joy cons are not present. This cheapens the cost of the system, and the manufacturing costs of the system as well
How will Super Mario Party work then?
Jaxson Green
Fuck off dumbass, take your console warring shit with you.
Carter Sanders
FUCK Mario party
FUCK your waggle shit gimmick
Charles Diaz
I would get one if the joysticks were level to replace my vita for emulation.
Matthew Brooks
No man's sky. The new free huge update is coming this summer. It support vr too
Adam Bailey
Why would you play only docked? All games look like ass and performance is typically worse when played on the tv. I feel like the switch is more suited for handheld play, hardware wise. The joycons still suck. I hope pic related isnt too expensive, looks more comfortable
Because, as you mentioned, the joycons suck, they're way too small, thus I play every game with the pro controller.
Zachary Cox
You will be forced to buy a separate pair of joycons
Leo Lee
>portable version of a portable console >less features but same battery life >only $80 cheaper
Why would I buy one? I already have a switch
Brody Cruz
tabletop mode my nigga
Joshua Taylor
I already own two switches why would I need a third also I play docked only and put it on one of my pc's monitors
David Martin
Why would I even consider that? If I don't play it as a handheld and plop it down somewhere, I might as well sit in front of my TV which has a much nicer screen to begin which.
Gavin Hall
That’s not the Nintendo button layout. Nice try though.
Julian Jones
Tabletop is good for a desk where you're >1 foot away, any more than that and you might as well be playing a gameboy
Blake Davis
just got a switch at target for 200 and it came with a free travel case. might as well get the bigger screen if the battery life is going to be the same.
Eli Cook
...
Jace Smith
That looks like ass. Why is the B backwards? Chink shit.
Caleb Torres
When does your pic get released?
Anthony Price
I'd like to read about this too
Jason Reed
>non-detachable joycons >they leave the shitty design so it starts drifting upwards after 3 months >"we are sorry you are not eligible for warranty" Damn, those Nintendo jews are genius.
Ryder Jenkins
The article is there
Jacob Davis
>$200
That's a great deal, are they still on sale?
Levi Hernandez
September
Kayden Long
Yeah I'm sure you're not full of shit.
Logan Carter
why would they call it the switch if they don't let you switch?
Wyatt Flores
. >Nintendo have always had the lowest hardware settings. Yet they sell a tonne Zooooom
Juan Cooper
>>A "mini" controller also comes packaged with the system to be used in docked mode or tabletop. It's essentially the pro controller but a "mini" version of it Naaaaah.
Jonathan Gray
>720p >in 2019 my phone has had better resolution than that since five years ago or more
