i missed what happened so i'm just seeing a cemetery
People decided to try and use the thread to recruit for other forums, which is blatantly not allowed.
more or less where people's hype is at sometimes and it'll IMO crash the same way; this thing seems good but man people are overestimating it

I really want them to make something else... Federation Force was so well designed, and we haven't had Punch-Out in forever.Luigi Mansion 4 will probably look like a Pixar movie.
My God.
Yea steam deck 2 will be coming 1 year after switch 2 though so the switch 2 specs will look impressive for 1 year atleast lol
I buy Nintendo hardware for Nintendo games though so doesn't really matter
Where did I say that they should put PS5 pro specs into a handheld? What doesn't make sense are people who can't read.This doesnt make any sense, might as well say: I am not a physicist so I dont care about physics, so why dont nintendo dont put PS5 pro specs into a handheld?
They said 2 - 3 years in 2023I dont think it will. Valve told a year ago about 3 a 4 years before a new one. So dont get your hopes up. Also, if it will be as good as switch 2, at what price? The steamdeck oled is already expensive. Lol (i own a steamdeck btw as second device because of many reasons)
switch 2 will be a safe bet. Im sure that nintendo made a great deal with nvidea and others to sell it at a lower price.
I personally think it's far more likely to be 4nm. 1536 cores is 3 times more than the SD. yes I know AMD and Nvidia can't be compared 1:1 but still it seems far to much for an 8nm handheld.Not really? I mean we're still looking at an Ampere GPU launching in 2025 possibly on a 10nm derivative Samsung process.
Impressive for a 2025 would be using N3 packing 2x the GPU into that. As it is it all looks very Nintendo - using ~5 years old tech for their newest console.
4nm would be great tbh but I'm not holding my breath for it to be anything but the originally disclosed 8N of Ampere.I personally think it's far more likely to be 4nm. 1536 cores is 3 times more than the SD. yes I know AMD and Nvidia can't be compared 1:1 but still it seems far to much for an 8nm handheld.
Specs aside, there's also the good old thumb rule, which has been true for more than 20 years (yeah, with some technicalities here and there).I doubt it will crash 'in the same way' like with Wii U speculation. I don't even remember if prospective specs from one of the hardware makers leaked for the Wii U like they have with T239. We've had these GPU/CPU specs and API documentation for more than a year now and the consensus has been a PS4+ machine that has less horsepower than the current gen home consoles (because of course). The people who are claiming that this will match or exceed the Series S are not the same people who have been combing over the specs for years. For some reason a flood of people have learned about these specs yesterday (even though the only new information was RAM, storage, and a mic) and there is some overexcitement at the moment. But in the last two years I've participated in this speculation we have some idea of the ballpark and not enough information (e.g. clock speeds) to actually say where it lands on the PS4 Pro to Series S scale.
They said 2 - 3 years in 2023
So that would be end of 2025 - end of 2026
Huh? So just talking about another forum is banned? Because I'm part of the other forum and most people talking about it aren't mods, they're not trying to make money, and there's no harm in inviting users to another site.Official Staff CommunicationKnock off the derail, self-promotion and cross-site drama is blatantly against the rules. We aren't here for you to make money off of. You don't get to use Era to recruit for your own site.
The Oled feels pretty nice, actually.I hope the build quality is good. My switch feels like its gonna snap like a KitKat if i put any pressure on it.
No recruiting. It's that simple. That's the issue, talk about the site if you want but you cannot recruit for other sites on Era.Huh? So just talking about another forum is banned?

The argument against 8N is that then the chip would be too large for the form factor. If we assume that Nintendo is being cheap, then going for a higher clocked 6-8SM would have been as performant, consume less or similar power and be cheaper. If we trust the peeps that made the math, is a solid argument.4nm would be great tbh but I'm not holding my breath for it to be anything but the originally disclosed 8N of Ampere.

Right? It's ridiculous. Dunno why BDubs is graveyarding posts answering it. No one was recruiting or advertising. Wtf.People literally just answered a question of where people went didn't they? If someone mentions IGN or Eurogamer will that get moderated as "recruitment" as well given those places also have their own forums / discussions?
Last digital foundry video, they mention 7nm from Samsung (3:55 Mark)The argument against 8N is that then the chip would be too large for the form factor.

I hope its 4N, I think that other Samsung are still possible. But I also agreed that 8N is a real possibility,

Going "Oh Nintendo fans all left and went here due to drama that happened three years ago" isn't mentioning where the news came from, it's straight up recruiting for another forum by convincing people to sign up.

Yes. And this feels like blatant overreaching by the mods because of the forum in question. Talking about reddit, twitter, etc isn't banned, but Famiboards is? If a mod wants to come in here and explain I'm all for it, instead of just removing posts and issuing warnings. Especially when the mod warning indicates that people are making money off of it when that is so hilariously not true.

The problem with this is if they'd be using 4N then why not use Lovelace instead of porting Ampere to a process it was never made for? Honestly some other derivative of Samsung's 10nm is far more likely IMO. Samsung is also desperate enough for customers to provide solid price cuts to someone willing to become one for the next ~10 years.The argument against 8N is that then the chip would be too large for the form factor.

I hope its 4N, I think that other Samsung nodes are still possible. But I also agree that 8N is a real possibility,
I really think them using some other random Samsung process node is a possibility. So many think this thing needs to use TMSC 4nm or Samsung 8nm and that its impossible to use anything else.

No one with a shred of sense will actually believe this.There's some talk that the Switch 2 might actually do better ray tracing than the big dogs due to Nvidia's inherent advantage regarding RT, but it's also possible that the Matrix Awakens tech demo just became more efficient since it was first shown.
ERA is literally "making money" off of <redacted> by having users view and discus information from said website here.

See in you again in 4 years - Nintendo
Current information suggests a regular LCD screen.
Like 10-ish, if we're going by exclusively by tflops.
For a portable system launching alongside 4K consoles with 16GBs? Seems fine really.
Depends on how they hit that figure but generally it's always costs of course - either from chip size or memory chip quantity/density.Even by today's standards, why not just use two 16gb (two 8gb)? Power consumption? Cost?
It's very likely a $399 machine in a world of rising costs. Even the choice of LPDDR5X 7.5 GT/s was very surprising given these are faster RAMs that also cost more than standard LPDDR5 6.4 GT/s.Is the 12gb ram true? That seems kinda low, right?

Well, there's precedent as Nvidia and Nintendo did shrunk Maxwell for the Switch soc update.The problem with this is if they'd be using 4N then why not use Lovelace instead of porting Ampere to a process it was never made for? Honestly some other derivative of Samsung's 10nm is far more likely IMO.

My guess would be that it's because the Atlan platform was cancelled entirely. There is no Tegra to start from other than Orin with Ampere.The problem with this is if they'd be using 4N then why not use Lovelace instead of porting Ampere to a process it was never made for?

Recruiting by simply telling the truth when asked to for an already far behind us event?

AI SoCs aren't relevant anyway no matter what was cancelled when.My guess would be that it's because the Atlan platform was cancelled entirely. There is no Tegra to start from other than Orin with Ampere.

12GB is more than enough, specially given Nintendo uses a lean OS with minimal RAM reservation. Not only that, 12GB is 2GB more than Series S. If we take into account OS reservation, Switch 2 (assuming 1 - 1.5GB OS reservation this generation) would have 2.5 - 3GB more RAM available than Series S.
