      I think you're getting your hopes up too much for the next system. Holiday 2024 is my guess. Everything is guesses right now no facts nothing. Next system could be 0.8tflop for all we know. And I'll be shocked if it's more then 8gb of RAM 2 for the system so only 6 for games. The main screen will probably still be 720p lol

      @@valismind .8tflops was just me joking cause it's Nintendo. But I don't think it will be much more than 2tflops give or take. And I still stand by my 8gb ram. Xbox series s has 10gb absolutely no reason for Nintendo to waste money on 16gb of RAM. I would be shocked if it was 12gb but that would be absolutely the max.
      Also stand by my 2024 release. 90% sure it will be holiday 24 but maybe we are lucky again and get March like the OG switch.
      Also the main screen being 720p I can see as a good cost cutting measure for Nintendo. Maybe we will be lucky and it's 900p.
      So to break it down.
      No more than 3tflops most likely 2
      No more than 12gb ram most likely 8
      No more than 900p OLED 7.4 inch screen most likely 720p 7 inch same exact screen being manufactured right now for switch OLED.
      Also no more than $399 for the next system. Most likely $349. And not coming in 2023.

    Summary of the video below:
    The speaker, who is a fan of the Nintendo Switch, owns multiple versions of the console and shares their thoughts on whether the Switch OLED is still worth buying in 2023. They explain that the OLED screen provides a much better visual experience in handheld mode compared to the original Switch, and the larger internal storage and kickstand are also nice improvements. They recommend the OLED over the original Switch, and suggest that the Switch Lite is a good option for those who prefer lighter games, but not for larger titles. The speaker also discusses the possibility of a new Nintendo Switch being released in late 2023 or early 2024, which could have improved performance and new features.

    I really enjoyed your take here. As someone who has both the Switch and Steam Deck, I do get the argument of tinkering. To be able to just pick up and play is nice. As for the Switch 2 or Pro or whatever the Big N decides to do, I'm in the mind of just waiting and seeing. Between their silence and all the speculations, I can't even get excited for the next Nintendo console anymore. I'm sure it'll be cool but until we get an official announcement, I'll just continue to enjoy my current Switch.

    2100P, or at the very least, 1440 while playing handheld. 4K while docked. Call me insane, but when you look at the specs that are integrated into the latest smartphones, I just can’t see how some super massive jump’s could possibly be unreasonable. Not to mention the battery size that’s packed into a phone that happens to be such a smaller device.
    Backwards compatibility should be automatic, no matter what, I’d think. Otherwise, there’ll be a huge segment of people who’ll end up waiting 2 or 3 yrs before picking it up.
    Similar technology that is within the $300.00/$400.00 price point is being sold all the time in the smartphone industry. Nintendo can do all of the above, if they want. Obvious question is, “will they?”

      Bro just by a switch oled, its 10000x better. I got a switch lite and it was garbage so I just sold it and ended up buying a switch oled(thank god it didn't cost that much since I had gift cards). The switch lite screen is incredibly small, and it gets annoying since most games are most enjoyable on the TV. I bought the Switch Lite thinking I was only going to be playing in handheld but after playing games like Zelda BOTW and other games, I wanted to play on the TV but couldn't. The handheld experience is better on the Switch OLED as well, especially since the screen is more vibrant and much larger.

      I'm in the same boat it's so tough, I think I'm gonna go for the OLED. In the long run, £100 isn't THAT much for all of the features you get. Imagine you're playing Luigi's Mansion 3 and want your sibling or friend to play co-op with you. Well, no can do for Lite. Or if you want to play Zelda on the big screen. Again, no can do for the Lite. What did you buy in the end? Since I'm at university without TV access during term time, the tabletop mode is something I will deffo use

      I think the new switch price tag will replace the OLED, and the OLED model Switch will replace the red box one. Perhaps making the lite cheaper, until they eventually phase them out. I doubt the new console will be any more expensive considering most of Nintendos money comes from their first party games which they're now selling for $70 starting with Tears of the Kingdom haha.

    I think the upcoming rog ally (starts at $599) is going to be a lot more worth it for me, why?
    1. 2x sharper screen, 2x faster as well
    2. Emulation of switch games
    3. Capable of running PC games!
    4. More comfortable to hold
    5. Multiple times better graphics! Switch hardware is just too old
    So I think the ally would be better for me. I can sell my switch for $270 (since it’s the OG moddable one), and all of my switch games for $300ish which means I’m basically upgrading and losing nothing (since I will be emulating the games)
