Are we talking Emily Rogers or another leaker?
If it's someone else, excuse me if we are talking about the same person yeah i don't trust her.
Are we talking Emily Rogers or another leaker?
The timing of this and the fact that there are two models in the works makes me wonder if the leak that Papagenos put out about a Switch in 2020 with a 1080P OLED, a 5G modem, and a 512 CUDA core SoC in 2020 to hedge against PS5/Scarlet.
JOLED will be putting out very cheap OLED panels by end of year and Nintendo has already had relationships with Japan Display and Panasonic (who are both invested parties in JOLED), and Nvidia just signed that deal for making chips on Samsung's new 7nm node, which may be more ideal for power-constrained SoCs than high end enterprise chips.
So after the female Link debacle i don't believe anything she says.
Still what?Are we talking Emily Rogers or another leaker?
If it's someone else, excuse me if we are talking about the same person yeah i don't trust her.
Do you have any idea why they (apparently) delayed it from an early Summer release ?
Sounds like the two models should come around the same time then.
I already gave my answer why i really don't need to explain myself any further.
What a strange attitude to take after one mistaken detail, compared to all the other stuff that was right on the money.Are we talking Emily Rogers or another leaker?

The same Nintendo that sold the Switch for $299 and was DOA due to the high price?That Papagenos stuff sounds like a pipe dream to me. All of that stuff in one device would be crazy expensive and Nintendo coming out with something with that premium of a price tag just doesn't fit the company.
So after the female Link debacle i don't believe anything she says.
Don't think so, if they started production it is coming this Fiscal year.I am a firm believer that they release BOTW 2 alongside this new SKU. If we can extrapolate a release date based off these leaks, I think we can also find the release window for BOTW 2.
Switch specs where already known people just didn't wanna accept it back then, i didn't follow labo so i can't comment on that.lmao you've written her off because of one inaccurate detail from a game in development?
She had the exact specs for the Switch a month before its announcement. She wrote about Labor VR well in advance of an announcement. She's been extremely cautious with the information she shares.
No way, botw 2 isn't releasing this year lolI am a firm believer that they release BOTW 2 alongside this new SKU. If we can extrapolate a release date based off these leaks, I think we can also find the release window for BOTW 2.
If it's in production now, it's going to be a 2019 release not 2020, so I would assume they are wrong unless they just missed on the date.The timing of this and the fact that there are two models in the works makes me wonder if the leak that Papagenos put out about a Switch in 2020 with a 1080P OLED, a 5G modem, and a 512 CUDA core SoC in 2020 to hedge against PS5/Scarlet.

i'm sure Mr. G is trolling report him for derailing the topicWhat a strange attitude to take after one mistaken detail, compared to all the other stuff that was right on the money.

I could see Witcher 3 being ported to showcase the next hardware ;)

You are right.
BOTW 2 coming by the end of the summer confirmed. To be announced at the Treehouse.I am a firm believer that they release BOTW 2 alongside this new SKU. If we can extrapolate a release date based off these leaks, I think we can also find the release window for BOTW 2.
Two years in advance before the first game was out even?What if her female link rumor wasnt for BOTW.... but for BOTW 2? Pretty easy to get those confused if there wasnt a whole lot of info for her to go on.
It's in the OP. WSJ is reporting that both models are already in production.Do we know if this is for the pro version or the lite version? I imagine they release the lite version first, then a pro down the line. I dont think they would muddy up their SKU's with 3 different versions all at once.
Well if they want Witcher 3 as the big showcase for the Pro ... they should've waited and announced it together with the revision. ^^
Pro will replace the current Switch SKU imo. It'll come after the Lite version which should be cheaper.Do we know if this is for the pro version or the lite version?

That's a weird take. No one is expecting that.I just hope people keep their expectations in check, and know that it will likely still be way less powerful than even the launch Xbone. It's likely going to be such a small upgrade
So after the female Link debacle i don't believe anything she says.
Whenever this thing comes out, in whatever form it comes out, I promise there will be threads on here complaining that it doesn't solve every performance issue they've experienced on the Switch. I promise you that, lol.
List of things that are not happening:
They are just too expensive, and the 1080p and LTE would just drain battery like a madman.
- OLED (UI burn-in risk)
- LTE (how do you manage the whole carrier thing?)
- 1080p
I' might be wrong tho
The leaker did suggest it would wind up having a ~$500 price tag, which sounded crazy, but if PS5 and/or Scarlet release at $500, like we suspect they may then...That Papagenos stuff sounds like a pipe dream to me. All of that stuff in one device would be crazy expensive and Nintendo coming out with something with that premium of a price tag just doesn't fit the company.
You're not buying one then.I'd buy a Switch Pro if it meant playing Daemon X Machina at 60 fps. Or Xenoblade 2 at an actual 1080p resolution.
BOTW 2 coming by the end of the summer confirmed. To be announced at the Treehouse.
It's happened a couple times iirc.In the past, hasn't Nintendo announced hardware revisions in the week or so after E3?
Doesn't Nintendo have some kind of conference in the last week of June? It could be then
