Switch lite can't dock? Will the "Pro" be the same story?

[JGCD]

Bit misleading title but I'm curious after learning how the switch lite cannot dock or connect to the TV in any way, shape, or form. Will the "Pro" just be a strictly console switch? And how would people react to it?

There's been loads of discussion on how they can improve on switch for a pro model but people were always grounded on the fact that it had to be a handheld. With the "lite" losing its "switch", will the Pro version follow suit with a console base ? And the normal switch being the only true hybrid?

 

[Keyouta]

No. It will likely replace the current model. If not, then it'll add to the Switch at a higher price.

I think, the pro cant be worse than the normal switch, so it cant loose the portability option.

 

[Lynd]

No way

 

[jedmund]

No, why would they do that?

 

[Rhiwion]

Wouldn't be much of a "Pro" model if they removed features, don't you think?

 

[TheMoon]

Obviously not? The way the rumors have pitched it and how logic would dictate, that makes no sense.

 

[cw_sasuke]

This doesnt even make sense - the Pro model will/would offer more than the standard Switch and be more expensive. Not less - lol.

 

[Savantcore]

It will be dock-only

 

[Bunkles]

The Pro will replace the OG Switch, so no. But if there is a market for it, I could see Nintendo releasing a TV-only Switch model. Make it look like Apple TV and call it Switch Puck.

 

[Wander_]

na.

 

[Ephonk]

No, for all the reasons above. It would be silly. It wouldn't be a "pro".
That doesn't mean nintendo won't ever release a console switch version that is also cheaper.

Guys, the Lite is the 2DS, the Pro will be the New 3DS. They've done this all before.

 

[darkside]

Pro model will be the opposite obviously, it'll just be a box.

Seriously its just going to be an upgraded Switch. The upgrade will probably be a whole lot less than what everyone is hoping for.

 

[Dest]

no lol

 

[LunaSerena]

Nah, the Pro Will probably be a stronger ot more efficient version of the current model, with all the bells and whistles.
The lite is aimed to a more casual market, basically.

no

 

[Deleted member 10737]

did you really need to ask this? of course it'll have TV out.

 

[TheZjman]

Why do we need a thread for this? It clearly will allow TV play otherwise what's the point in boosted performance?

 

[LiK]

Pro is OG but better. They won't take away the handheld aspect or that would be a mistake.

But there are people who will be happy to only playing it as a home console.

This appears to be a reaction thread based on unfounded speculation as such it is now closed.
