    Need 1080p in handheld or it’s a pass.

    Need 1080p in handheld or it’s a pass.

    Not happening, too expensive, would drain the battery too fast and on top of that no switch game would reach 1080p resolution on handheld. We're gonna have to wait for switch 2 to have that

    Source? Nothing about how things will look and run has been confirmed yet... So I need to see proof about the whole 4K @ 30 FPS etc. thing fam

    this is industry standard s***

    like if they dont offer what i suggested then what would be the alternative?

    they wouldnt get away with selling a 1440p dock with 30fps max

    and the current dock already does many games in 1080p @ 60fps

    so just think about a logical 5 year upgrade and do your research on latest Nvidia chips

    we never need 1080p for handheld

    900p on a 7" screen looks mad crispy tbh

    can your eyes really notice 1920 pixels horizontally on a 7" screen compared fo 1440 pixels?

    Some games already run 60fps on handheld mode tho, like Smash and Mario Kart. You don't think BOTW could get that bump on a Switch Pro?

    BOTW and Pokemon Sw/Sh could potential see higher frames but idk if any backend optimization would have to happen and if it would you can bet Nintendo would rather move forward unlike Xbox's optimization

    just because you have more power doesnt mean older games that were capped on OG Switch will automatically run better and thats where Nintendo has to be careful as Xbox is handling that move VERY well

    Yeah i dont think nintendo would update older titles to run better if switch pro is that kind of upgrade. I wouldnt mind tho, i can live with that if the next Mario, botw2, Metroid prime 4, bayonetta 3, new monolith and pokemon run better on it and would justify a purchase for me

    Maybe. I need more than 720p though. Cause that s*** looks mad blurry to me on the handheld screen.

    It looks blurry cause most games dont even run on 720p in handheld

    not all handheld games are fixed at 720p, some are dynamic or flat out 540p

    MarioKart and Smash run 720 nicely
    Astral Chain runs 720p and is crisp
    same with Mario Odyssey too

    Xenoblade and Zelda run sub720p though

    If a Switch revision is coming later this year then BotW 2 must be coming along with it Was starting to think BotW 2 would join us in 2022 with Splatoon 3 and Pokémon Legends: Arceus after Aonuma refused to talk about the game at the last Direct, but the Switch revision rumors give me hope that BotW 2 could be coming this year.

    You really think they're gonna release games exclusively on a switch pro when 80 million people are playing on current switch?

    They done it every other time, & lie all the time that they are gonna continue support when they actually drop it within or a lil bit after a year without official say.

    GB Color to GBA, GBA to DS, DS to 3DS, 3DS to Switch

    Wii to Wii U

    Only 3DS & New 3DS kept its promise, kinda, byt New 3DS full tech potential wasnt used much.

    Cant think different if your history & pattern proves otherwise.

    Switch is also very underpower even compared to ps4 etc. If next switch is such a substantial upgrade these new round of leaks claim, it wont keep up & the downgrade ports will look & be terrible like just about every "cutting edge" 3rd party ps4 x1 games ported over to current switch.

    Idk about that dude, the examples you posted are entirely different consoles. Gba and ds are fundamentally different consoles, same with 3ds and switch. They cant make a game that can release on both switch and 3ds. Switch pro gonna have supposedly dlss which is an AI increasing performance so games will still be developed with og switch in mind but they can also run on this switch pro. Think of it like a ps4 to ps4 pro, ps4 pro was slightly more powerful but it didnt stop ps4 support

    @Water_Giver you're listing consoles from entirely different gens. Switch pro is a mid gen console, like switch lite is. GBA and NDS are too different and are parts of different generstions. NDS had different hardware, different concept (touchscreen, 2 screens, stylus) and it was their new console for the new generation

    Think you missed the point, that -they- themselves said they would support all of them, & then didnt. Its always a bold face lie.

    GBA & DS were not meant to be separate, neither was DS & 3DS. They were not marketed as at first & were told they were not successors but are companions pieces, same with Switch & 3DS. It is pretty much a joke & a meme at this.

    And again, considering if this "pro" is true, it is way more than a pro. It is a next gen system. 4k 60 isnt even fathomable for current switch, lot of stuff arent even ttrue 1080 dock or true 720 handheld. The current switch can barley run true 8th gen games, who honestly thinks it'll be able to run 9th gen or 8 & a 3rd gen games? Either the new switch will be held back by old switch, or the old will get left.

    They have never supported a previous iteration even though their words suggested otherwise.

    Guilty until they show different imo. Never trust Nintendo when it comes to the support side. Its been their major downfall since the beginning.

    From consoles to games to services & peripheral, they are never honest.

    3ds last game was released in 2019 so technically they didnt stop support, during switch they launched Metroid samus returns, fire emblem echoes, minecraft, persona q2 and shin megami tensei strange journey redux and these are the big examples, ther were also indies and smaller titles. They had to stop at some point to support the switch since it was their moneymaker at that point.
    Gba had ace combat, a fire emblem game, a mario party game, a mario tennis game, a donkey kong game after ds released. They stopped at some point because the nintendo ds was their moneymaker.
    The switch pro situation is different because:
    1. If it upscales to 4k its gonna have to use dlss which is AI induced upscaling so the base game would be the same for both consoles, but only the pro could upscale these games. The software will run on both hardwares, but will run better on one type.
    2. Nintendo switch has 80 million users they cant and wont ignore until a truly next gen console, Nintendo wont market it as a successor and before this there was the switch lite that had the same games as the normal switch despite lacking what it made it a switch. Switch pro is gonna be like a switch lite but in the opposite direction, focusing more on dock rather than the handheld, so they'd naturally have to increase performance.
