What gives you the confidence to guarantee this? Nintendo has never made a cross gen 3D Mario game, yet you are so confident they will do it this time you can guarantee it?
Nintendo is notably a very slow moving company. They don't tend to make large changes quickly, it usually takes them a long time of slow adjustments. Look at their online service, for example, where it's taking them an entire generation to even really get started on it.
You can also look at DS and how quickly they reacted to make sure Sony couldn't repeat with PSP what they did with PSX, the idea of Nintendo being 'slow' is only in some aspects in others Nintendo reacts quickly to secure they future.
The GBA SP revision also came out immediately after Nokia announced they were entering the handheld space.
Interesting
sad this is the most exciting thing to happen in this thread in recent weeks. going so heavy on the copium, it's about to be an epidemic
Finally something to chew on.
Where there’s fire…
I think I just tingled
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice !
I’m feeling something, but I’m also craving some ribs..
Yes and I'm going to lose my mind if we see this bad boy in July just like the Lite and OLED!!!
I think there's a decent chance Nvidia supplies the SoC to Nintendo at cost. If Drake is on, say, 6nm, it wouldn't be competing for fab-output with Nvidia's other products and I safely assume that Nintendo helped fund the design/development of Drake, or even paid for it outright. So if Nvidia supplies it at cost they aren't losing money at any level and they keep a strategic business partner happy while further pushing their proprietary technology as a standard for a large section of the industry.
That reminds me I need to update my profile.
Nvidia are not a charity
I’d say it’s possible with 3D Mario. Bowser’s Fury ran at 30fps when in handheld and 60fps when docked. The new Mario game could run at 540p/30fps handheld and 720p/30fps when docked on the current Switch and 2160p/60fps using DLSS on the new Switch.
Fall Guys runs at 30 FPS but it seems other players are animated less frequently (maybe half?) until the lobby clears up with 15~ people remaining.
not yet. not until some more outlets start talking
This kind of rumors fill my soul with joy. Thanks for sharing.
I feel like his bosses probably put him on a "no Switch 4k reporting" sabbatical after last year.
Removing half their podcast because they just learned it's just a Partner Direct
where's nate? need him or mvg to bring on the disappointment
Not enough for me sadly. Need more.
In general there really isn't a whole lot of evidence pointing to a pro model coming early next year at this point.
I have nothing to cope for…except trying to secure that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Special Edition.
I love this kind of things
maybe Nintendo learned and are now trying to secure the announcement before the whole hardware goes to manufacturing? Not like the OLED was a big deal so they prob didn't care AS MUCH for leaks.
i mean, there are people/companies are under heavy NDAs as well, and leakers will be tracked, caught and punished. Nintendo takes leaks l, copyright infringement and piracy more seriously then any other gaming company.

Nintendo has tightened on the information in recent months, especially considering the gigaleak, Chinese manufacturing leaks and the recent Nvidia ones, I wouldn’t be surprised if we get no leaks this time around.
Interesting. But I'm still skeptical for this year. I think it could mean we shall see it this year(announced surely later this year) but it releases early next year.
If they wanted to make a higher clock profile on the tx1, they could have dones so in 2019 with Mariko. A home console only, woudnt have been necesary to acheive that.
Yeah them animating at 15fps close up is certainly something lol but I suppose they had to do it to get the game running at all. It really shows how much the Switch hardware (especially the CPU) is ageing now.
