Ever since the Nintendo Switch - OLED Model came out, everybody has been wondering will there be a Switch 2? Most articles say the switch will come out in 2023 or 2024, so we still have a year or two.
Screens
Some people and websites are saying that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be a TV only console, like PlayStation or Xbox. Though a lot of people wouldn't like that! What makes the Nintendo Switch different from other competitors is that you can game anywhere! Honestly I don't think that's gonna happen. But if they do, this could lead to the end of Nintendo......
Another Rumor is that there will be some type of dual screens like the Nintendo DS. I wonder what it's gonna look like...
Pricing
We know for sure that the pricing will be in the $300-$450 range. The OLED Model was $349.99 so we can probably guess that the Switch 2 will be $399.99
Specs
In a previous leak it said that there will be a custom Nvidia Tegra Xavier processor, a 64GB SSD, 4K video support, and two USB-C ports. Though that does point towards a TV Only Console, which highly unlikely like I said before. However, Nintendo did confirm that the New Nintendo Switch will have 64GB and not 32GB like the current model! This is going to be so helpful! "Fortnite you're not taking all my storage anymore! HAHAHAHAHAHA!".
Display
For display we are looking at a HD resolution since the OLED model could output HD at the most when docked. Ross Young from Tom's Guide said, "Their power consumption varies with the content. So it's going to depend on the type of content that you're playing. If it's video, OLEDs have a big advantage. But if it's a bright video game with a lot of white, then OLEDs may consume more power.”. Even Steven V. Abramson, head of Universal Display Corporation said that Nintendo wants a OLED screen due to response times and contrast.
Now your probably still wondering, what about the Nintendo Switch Pro? Well we did have the Nintendo Switch OLED model come out recently, so this leaning towards a Nintendo Switch 2 not a Pro version.
Nintendo Switch 2 sound like a ton of fun and I can't wait to get my hand on this.
