It may display in 1080 because your tv is upscaling but it's actually the exact same image as when it's in HH mode. https://gamingbolt.com/nintendo-switch-ui-always-renders-in-720p Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,318 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 How are they producing this new APU? Would they have a stockpile? Because Nintendo isn't changing any of their sales projections compared to last year. They're still thinking they can sell 25 to 28 million units. So where the hell are these nVidia processors coming from? Let's assume they're not Maxwell/Pascal-based anymore. Let's assume that they new 16nm, like the Tegra X1+. So, its smaller than 16nm, and I doubt they'd still be using Turing. Is Nintendo responsible for the NVidia chip shortage? Link to post Share on other sites

Purist 134 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 So what's the expected power jump? I've heard people saying that expecting the level of base Xbox One/PS4 is unrealistic. Link to post Share on other sites
Purist 134 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Shamelessly copy & pasted from Resetera. Quote - Pretty much same size but with bigger OLED screen (7 inches?), so almost no bezels. - Current joycons compatible. - Surface-style flap for tabletop gaming. - Micro SD slot behind this flap on the back. Easier to acess to. - Slightly thicker dock with 2 USB 3.0 ports and ethernet port. - 4K TV output. Source is Vandal (in Spanish), it has been correct in the past regarding several topics: Quote In the last hours, several prestigious international media such as Bloomberg or Eurogamer have assured that the announcement of the new Nintendo Switch model is imminent, and that it will take place before E3 2021, which begins on June 12. Now we offer you some unpublished details of the new Switch, which we have told you in our weekly Vandal Radio podcast, and which we are going to reproduce below. All this information comes from an Asian peripheral manufacturer that has had access to the console and has already been able to see it, so almost all the details are from the aesthetic part and we do not know specific information about its internal hardware, beyond that It will offer 4K image output when connected to a television, as has been rumored for months. The size of the console will be very similar to the original model, so it seems that it will be compatible with current Joy-Con as well as other types of peripherals. The screen will be larger, up to 7 inches, but without the body of the console having been increased, something that has been achieved by practically eliminating the black frames that surround the screen of the current model. A screen that will be OLED, as you can see, it was pointed out for a long time, so the image quality will be better than the current LCD screen. A novelty in the body of the console will be that it replaces the current support to support it, somewhat flimsy, with a base that goes from side to side of the console and that will hold it more stable, similar to that found in some tablets such as the Surface Pro that you can see in the following image. Another change is that the microSD card to expand the memory of the console no longer goes in the lower part, and this slot is now located on the side of the back, in a more accessible way, although again under the support to support it. The new dock, the device with which we connect the console to the TV, will be very similar in size to the current one, although it will be a little wider at the rear, and will include two USB 3.0 ports, faster than the current 2.0 ports. The most outstanding novelty of the dock will be that it will have an ethernet network port, to be able to connect it by cable to the internet, something unprecedented in a Nintendo console since it has always been necessary to resort to peripherals to have this type of connectivity. The various information that appeared yesterday pointed to an imminent announcement and a launch date for September or October. Our sources have told us that indeed the console is already in the final production process, but that the global launch is uncertain, and that it may not arrive in Europe until the end of November, and with a fairly limited number of consoles compared to previous brand launches. You already know the current semiconductor crisis that is affecting new generation consoles, and the new Switch is not going to get rid of them, as the president of the company himself recognized. If the information of the last hours is true, the new Switch will be announced during the next two weeks, so we will solve all kinds of doubts about this new model of the Nintendo console that has been talking about for too long. Still not clear how big of a power jump except that the dock outputs 4k? 7 inch OLED with minimal bezel is cool though.😎 Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I don't understand too, maybe people are trying their hardest to keep their expectations low to avoid disappointment. Personally I'd be shocked if it's not at least stronger than base PS4.
