"New" Switch 2 by 2027

youtube.com/watch?v=Nc0ieceoQKg

Will be called the New Nintendo Switch 2, original Switch 2 will be renamed to the Old Nintendo Switch 2 like what happened to the 3DS line.

5nm Switch 2 SOC known as Shepherd is already finished as the original 8nm SOC chip is known as Drake.

Cheaper to make then the 8nm Switch 2.

Mostly a overclock of Switch 2 but with more ram (16GB, up from 12GB) and dedicated camera hardware to fee up CPU resources and so the cameras can run at 120FPS instead of 15FPS.

2.2GHz CPU, cache banks are the same (128KB L1 per core (64KB instruction and 64KB data), 512KB L2 per core and 8MB shared).

1.12GHz GPU for TV mode, 3.44TF, shader count is the same but has more cache (2MB L1 (1MB instruction and 1MB data) and 4MB L2).

Handheld mode is the same GPU clock speed wise.

256-Bit LPDDR5, 8533MTs, 240GBs in TV mode.

Handheld mode is the same but the bandwidth is now at 132.5GBs due to the 256-Bit ram bus.

1TB of built in storge, uses PCIe buses for speed, 3.9GBs read and 3.6GBs write.

SD Express has also been updated to use PCIe 5.0 speeds.

Game cards can take advantage of the faster PCIe bus.

DisplayPort bus is now at 2.1 so the bottom USB-C port's high speed lanes now run at 80GBs (Switch 2 only uses a DisplayPort 1.4 bus for it's USB-C port's high speed lanes).

Top USB-C port runs at 80Gbs (Switch 2's top USB-C port only runs at 10Gbs, enough for a 1080p Camera and a Gigabit Ethernet adaptor using a USB hub).

Screen is now OLED as OLED screen tech got better since 2023 when the 8nm Switch 2 was finished.

5 Hours of battery life at max settings.

Will see release by Q4 2027.

No lite due to low sales (on top of production costs going up to the point that a Lite won't save that much money in terms of production costs).

New Nintendo Switch 2 only comes in OLED.

Should cost $500 with tariffs.

Both New and Old Switch 2s will be supported just like how the New and Old 3DSs were both supported at the same time.

New Switch 2 exclusives will exist but will not be the norm, just like how New 3DS exclusives exist but they were not the norm.

Multi boot games that will gain performance boosts going from Switch 1/2 to New Switch 2 will exist, just like how some 3DS games gain performance boosts from running on a New 3DS.

Switch 3 is still a ways off.

Thoughts.

I'm interested in playing on mouse and keyboard

I'm gonna wait for the Switch 3 instead

Not pirating though. Avoiding console

Switch 2 has that.

none of this will happen

they didn't do a switch pro when the original switch badly needed more power they're not going to do it with a system that is far more future proof in comparison

Get a PC then...

He will not wait for the swtich 3

Still waiting on the switch pro bro.

Switch Pro got canceled due to Covid-19, they already have a 5nm Switch 2 SOD chip ready so a cancelation isn't going to happen again.

5nm

yikes.

nintendo mentioned the switch pro in one of their dev interview, weirdly enough. it was a developer model thing

2018: Switch Pro in the works

2019: Switch Pro announcement this year

2020: Switch Pro delayed because of COVID

2021: Switch Pro announcement this year

2022: Switch Pro announcement this year

2023: Switch Pro announcement this year

2024: Switch Pro announcement this year

2025: Switch 2 is Switch Pro see we were right all along

dynamic memory clocks, try harder, kid

will they make the models that sold the most on the switch 1

lets waste time in a youtube video discussing things with obvious answers

Just wait for Switch Lite!

Just wait for Switch Pro!

Just wait for Switch 2!

Just wait for Switch 2 Pro!

Switch Pro got canceled due to Covid-19

citation needed

Yeah sure, but I'm still buying Switch 2, I'll sell it when the new model is out

niggerfaggot thread, but if they can get it to 4K120fps docked, I'll upgrade day 1

Why did OP make up a bunch of very obvious lies and expect people with a brain to believe him?

PS5 Pro uses a 5nm SOC chip, to Nintendo it's a die shrink as Switch 2 uses a 8nm SOC chip.
Switch Pro got canceled due to Covid, this isn't happening again with Switch 2 as a new 5nm chip already exists and is already in production in bulk.

Switch 2 not even out yet

anon day dreaming about Switch 3

contrarianism has peaked

imagine fantasizing about this shit and posting it

Thats the benefit of the DisplayPort 2.1 bus, you can have both 4K and 120fps.

These are people that have parts shipping details, it's real.

PS5 Pro uses a 5nm SOC

double yikes.
consolefags are sad. even phones are down to 3nm now.
I wouldn't be surprised if modern flagships are more powerful than modern consoles.

Phones cost $1000 so they have the money to use smaller chips that cost more to make, consoles need to use lateral thinking with withered technology to keep the price points low and have a profit buffer to manage the tariffs, otherwise they will cost $3000 each before tariffs.

Not thanks, Im waiting for the Switch Pro 69

5 Hours of battery life at max settings.

Ah, the tech illiterate.

Batteries and SOC chips got better since 2023 where the Switch 2's hardware was finished.
Watch OP's video.

Yeah I'll wait for the Super Switch 2 Turbo

The Switch 2 isn't even out yet and I'm already waiting for the Switch 2 Pro.

Oh yeah I'll wait for the Switch 4

switch 2 isn't even out yet and faggots are already making shit up about a pro model

switch 2 isn't even out yet

SWITCH 2 PRO SOON GUYS

metroid prime trilogy collection coming too by the way guys

I hope every single one of them dies tonight.

I don't want to share the same platform with you people + Reddit.

Right? If anything, CoViD would be a reason to expedite development on a Switch 1 Pro.

expect people with a brain

None of those use this site

Not made up, look up shipping info and you will find the needed info, also watch OP's video.
They didn't have the parts needed to make a Switch Pro due to Covid shortages.

Not lies, watch OP's video.

from 2018 to 2024 (You) and others like you all whined and complained

just wait for the switch pro

the switch HD is about to be announced

at this point just wait half a year for the stronger switch refresh

then in 2025: here's the switch 2

NOOOOOO NO NO NO NO NO NOT LIKE THIS WHAT THE FUCK AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

every single EVERY single time every hour on the hour

Sure anon, I believe you
Just like the switch pro released in 2020 right?

That has never been the case, Switch Pro got canceled due to Covid.

refresh

new architecture

Yeah, bullshit

Canceled due to Covid.
Die shrinking a 8nm chip to 5nm and adding in a few extra features is not new architecture.

LMAO, they sold more over covid than any other year anon, you’re full of shit
The OLED was the pro

are you purposefully memory holing every single

should I buy a switch

thread that occurred a year after it released? literally every thread was "why would you? just emulate the games" or "bro the refresh, just two more weeks" you're a fucking round headed monkey fella.

No, it wasn't, OLED was a replacement because the OLED screen was the only thing they could get.

The fuck are you talking about retard, they were still making all the console types as they were selling OLED

They managed to hold fine 8 years with old technology, they can do the same with Switch 2.

Switch OLED was a replacement for what was supposed to be Switch Pro's spot in the market.

NO THEY FUCKING DIDN'T!!!!! They almost went out of business because of it.

New Switch 2 is seeing a release in 2027, watch the damn video.

No it wasn’t
It is the “Pro”

watch my video

I’m not touching your dogshit anon

Yes it was.
OLED was never a Pro model.
Switch Pro used a 12nm SOC chip that is somewhat more powerful then Mariko (really a overclock with more shaders and a larger ram bus) and has 8GB of ram.
OLED still uses the same 16nm Mariko chip the Lite and V2 uses and still only has 4GB of ram.

I'm not part of Digital Foundry.

Wrong, it was only real in your mind

No, right.

switch2 is so disappointing people are already speculating and bullshitting about a revision

lul

No, fact, Digital Foundry does not lie.
We're getting a 5nm Switch 2 in 2027.

Source?

i only care about the lite
i dont care for joycons at all. dont care about the dock either. just give a comfy lite please

No lite due to low sales (on top of production costs going up to the point that a Lite won't save that much money in terms of production costs).

I refuse to believe this
it sold too well in japan

It didn't sell well enough is the thing.

ps3 had for its gpu, 90nm, 65nm, 40nm, 28nm
ps3 for its cpu had 90nm, 65nm, 45nm

ps3 didn't have a pro model, all of them ran the same speed
you are one of those tech illiterates
hang yourself

Says while phoneposting

LOL

youre a fucking retard

PS3 was before Pro models were a thing, it was a different time.

Watch the damn video, it's all in there.

Dude just give up, dont know why you are trying so hard.

not giving your video clicks faggot.

tsmt
I'm not buying your slop nintendo. I will wait until you release a reasonably priced console with decent specs, not something with a half decade old soc in it.

this just made it even easy to avoid buying switch 2
i guess i will wait and just emulate in the meantime

Not my video.
Watch the video.

You seem pretty desperate for people to watch for it to not be you video
