That "10 million displays" post was in relation to my hidden comment about console stockpiling. It does seem like Nintendo wants a lot of systems to prevent scalping. However that tweet was from a few months back, so it's not new information for the majority of us.
That the biggest leak so far comes from a couple of companies that are skipping confidentiality just because, yes, it's simply spectacular
Still, if this is all true, I really hope those third side buttons next to L, ZL, R and ZR are actual triggers. That would be amazing for racing and shooter games, or GTA even.
Switch 2: Nintendo's Next-Gen Gaming Experience Unveiled
Prepare to embark on an adventure with Nintendo's highly anticipated Switch 2, featuring enhanced features, backward compatibility, and innovative design. Stay informed on the latest gaming advancements for an immersive experience like never before awaits!www.mobapad.com
Well they decided to put out a full English article.
No. If this info is real, Nintendo is most definitely not ok with them leaking it. Nintendo wants to control the narrative, they want to be the first to show new features and form factor. I think they would be more ok by someone leaking clock speeds, and they woudnt be ok with that either.
Idk man, + and - kinda removed the need to have a proper select button imo. Sure it's not as iconic, but it's a solid enough way to still have a menu button for both controllers and act as easy-to-understand independent buttons for normal controllers. My guess is that the additional button is for a gimmick or to act as a "share" button or something.
Thank you for your didactic explanations. Sorry for going off topic, but could you explain why Windows is bad in this respect? It seems strategically incomprehensible to me that they don't make it an important part of their specifications.
Can you develop Switch accessories and sell them, without official permission from Nintendo?
Essentially, Windows is an OS that has to support a lot of backwards compatibility features and support a whole bunch of third party software, it essentially becomes an all-in-one OS after a point... but that means it becomes very bloated by comparison. Linux has a general software base that can and often does not support specific software types. The Steam Deck's OS, SteamOS (which itself is a ArcLinux-based OS), is only able to run games through a specialist compatibility layer called Proton, which allows Windows titles to run through that layer without issue on Linux.
Ultra 64 wasn't a codename, it was meant to be the actual name for the system before they ran into trademark issues. I don't think Nintendo's codenames really have any particular meaning except for maybe Revolution. I know Iris had something to do with it being the 5th product in the Gameboy line (don't remember the specifics as to how it relates) but for the most part they seem random.
Yeah, it came at a time we were already expecting 2024 release, so I completely forgot about it. I didn't have much time to catch up the thread and there were a lot of posts ahead, so I just went looking for follow ups other reports, but ended just going through dozens of post about the name again.
Fair points on both sides, I actually admittedly forgot about the Ultra 64 name problems. Though, I believe Atlantis was just the precursor to the GBA before a lot of ideas were cutdown due to issues with feasibility and cost.
Maybe they're capacitive pressure sensitive back buttons... And all our dreams come true
No relation between the 2.
Yeah. I remember when the larger size came out and people were in hysterics saying that the larger size implies (or confirms) a big "dumb" node and that's why the screen and console needs to be bigger.
Yeah, I remember you saying that, only to forget about it later
If they wanted this info out there they could just you know reveal the damn thing. No company wants other parties to reveal details about their unannounced products.
The node talk is so interesting because there’s no right and wrong answers, heck they might even use a 5NM node.
4N is 5nm.
What was the mistake when launching with 20nm? If at that time 20nm was the only available solution for the Tegra X1 they didn‘t had a choice. Almost every home console got the first revision when the die shrink was available and the die shrink is not available at launch of the console
Looking back at the 4K OlED Switch video. It make sense why they didn't. It was really just very low demanding games. Also, once you think about it, marketing the Switch as the first 4K Nintendo device will have bigger impact.
What about the Nintendo rectangle?
From what I have been told here it isn't the wifi or the ethernet. The Switch have cap on network speed
Seems like Miyamoto upended the tea table.
Node names are super confusing, and it's on purpose. A company does some minor improvements to a node, and they give it a better sounding name for marketing reasons.still learning about which is what
Thanks for letting me know
No, remind us.
yea, they just don't get access to schematics before launch. also makes you liable to be caught in Nintendo's crosshairs, but risk/reward
Also, there reason why node process discussions is centered around SEC8N and TSMC 4N is because that's what the majority of current-timeframe nvidia products are fabbed on. So in most of our views, it's either SEC8N or TSMC 4N.still learning about which is what
Thanks for letting me know
He over came his fears, that's character development.
Well see if this company is going to sell make Switch accessories much longer. Nintendo probably woudnt do anything publicly before reveal anyway, as it only gives legitimacy to the info. But silence also says something, they had no problem publicly making a fool of Mochi.
Flying Wii Remotes come to mind…
Mobapad just posted a blog in english with the information

It honestly sounds like total nonsense to me.
As has been stated here previously, they can use an electropermanent magnet so that there only has to be one electrical pulse to turn it on or off rather than a continuous use of electricity to keep it on.It honestly sounds like total nonsense to me.
Magnets might be involved in the sense of helping to align the controllers on the console, making for easier attaching and detaching, but they don't make sense as the only way to affix the controllers and using literal electromagnets, rather than the broader idea of "electromagnetic suction" which includes... Regular magnets.
The power consumption of holding the controllers firmly to the console would make, frankly, no sense.
It's enough to make me skeptical of the whole thing. Then again I don't know much about electomagnetic tech in general.
I didn't realize it can work that way. As I stated, I don't know much aobut electromagnetic tech in general.
Yes
Yes, there's always that chance. So treat it that way accordingly.
yea, there's a chance
Counter point (to myself!). It's possible to customize the power curves of a chip - that's why Steam Deck performs better per watt than other PC handhelds using AMD chips which were designed for laptops.
