    Bigger screen and new ports? Awesome!

    Still looks like Switch 1.5, not 2…but I’ll wait until I see hardware specs and games

      Specs have been leaked before, starting way back in 2021 regarding the T239 SoC variant.

      Since then, especially recently with the motherboard leak, people have pieced together specs that make it ~11x more powerful, but that’s looking at raw numbers and trying to fit that into something we currently know.

      Knowing Nintendo, it will be underpowered and underclocked to preserve cost, battery life and make it as stable as possible for the long run.

      Something different this time is the DLSS tech though. This might make games run easier no matter the raw numbers by allowing a lower native resolution without losing (much) visual acuity.

      But that’s more a story for 3rd party developers, honestly, so I digress. I’ll say I’m cautiously optimistic about the potential of the hardware.

        Dlss doesn’t interest me at all, but it might be a bit helpful on the smaller screen
