Nintendo Switch Pro rumor: 4K with Nvidia’s DLSS AI chip
A new report from Bloomberg says Nintendo’s next Switch, or Switch Pro as it’s been dubbed, will house a new Nvidia chip with DLSS capabilities, meaning some games could be played in 4K when docked. There’s more: analysts say the new step-up Switch should boast a better CPU and more memory, but cost as much…

Press X to doubt.
DLSS is AI powered upscaling…

If these rumored specs are true, I suspect this will be $399.99 considering the Switch is $299.99 and the Switch Lite is $199.99.
I suspect they’ll update the battery life as well as the JoyCons. Maybe this time, the JoyCon drift won’t be a thing?
I think we can expect some games requiring the updated Switch kind of like what happened with the PSP and the 3DS.

The question is, will the gpu scarcity be over by the end of the year — personally, I don’t believe so, it might be more a 2022 product realisticly speaking.

Yes, I’m definitely going to wait now. I’ve waiting this long to play BOTW. another few months couldn’t hurt. Especially since I just got my LG 77GX. My new media room needs an updated Switch!

Come on! At least give us high refresh rate 1080p oiled screen on the new switch

I agree! I would prefer higher refresh rate at 1080 in handheld mode.

It took sony and microsoft more than 10 years to push their consoles to hold up 60fps. Therefore, it’s unfair to ask for higher fps. It should be fine as long as it can hold a stable 30 fps.

Nintendo Switch is a great console. The pro version would be even better..!! Thank you for the update, CNET..!!

Dlss cannot be on a dock it has to be on the chip itself
Curtis Whitehead

It’s why they pulled the dock from Europe

Is it too much to ask for 1080p in handheld mode? 720p with a larger display will look even more pixelated.

Im pretty sure that’s the next gen Nintendo console. I think the updated switch will just be better battery, the oled, and possibly higher clock speeds so that the switch can play finally Xbox 360 games at 720p at a locked 30 fps.

If it would cost $400, I rather buy a $499 PS5 or the $400 PS5 Digital Version.

I have been holding off on buying a switch specifically for their updated versions of the console because they do it with every handheld since the GBA. Don’t wanna get screwed by buying the original model when a superior one feels almost inevitable.

Is this 2021-2022 rumored version worth? I also holding back to buy one while waiting the monster hunter series lel

For the price expectations go and check what Nintendo did in the past. If the Pro replaces the current Switch it will not cost more. If they sell side by side until the original runs out there might be a price hike with the Pro and a price drop in the original.

I’m hoping the newer Switch model with have HDR support for both games and media. It also be nice if the new screen would be an LTPO 120HZ OLED panel.
