I'm confident we're getting a Metroid game this year. Announcement of new Switch hardware seems imminent as well.



Yes, Bloomberg's report was accurate. New screen, upgraded chips. Aiming for Sept - Oct release. An announcement is imminent. We might be getting news sooner than we thought.

The Bloomberg report said that the new model would include a 720p OLED screen, brand new chipset, 4K DLSS, and a 7-inch panel.

What has she gotta right before? It's also weird to need confirmation of this when it's been practically an open secret for the better part of year.

Before E3 would be nice if only that means we get Switch pro footage of games. I'm still thinking it's announced after though

Didn't she also say (albeit a long time ago) that Mother 3 was going to launch on Wii U and that Mario Odyssey was a launch title? Not entirely sure if she's super legit, though she has had some stuff right before, but some stuff she has also gotten wrong, so IDK really.

Yeah, what I'm wondering is if it will allow for exclusive software... if it does then I guess it'll just be a new generation for Nintendo hardware then?

Wow, Emily has proven to be trustworthy, she has proven time and time again that she knows what is going on.

Holy shit, this would be much sooner than expected.

Could an E3 announcement/reveal actually be coming?

Wow

So I guess the next time we see BOTW2 it'll be running in this new hardware, which would make sense.

the "bloomberg report" one was less "SWITCH PRO" and more "about the same with a bigger oled screen and 4K dock"?

Considering when they announced 3DS XL and Switch Lite, I guess they're waiting a week or two after E3. Can't wait honestly.
