Sounds good to me. More time to save up some cash on Amazon month by month.
Buy a PC already, it hurts to see you suffer like thisinstead of buying ugly switch games for another year I've pared my purchases down to Splatoon 3 and this book
I built a PC when I was 18 but I don't like to talk about it. It's bad for my imageBuy a PC already, it hurts to see you suffer like this
I feel this a lotI built a PC when I was 18 but I don't like to talk about it. It's bad for my image
no but I’ll get through itEveryone okay in here?
Btw: the Super Switch alike Chip Orin has been released and is now able tu buy immediately:
not that I put much stock in my vibes, but I find this harder and harder to believeNot that it matters anyway since devs have been getting kits for Drake.
I should clarify, I mean dev kits that are similar to Drake. They could have gotten the custom core one from the breach recently. Who knows.not that I put much stock in my vibes, but I find this harder and harder to believe
yep. waiting on games is going to save me a fair bit of money tooEven if this isn't Furukawa saying this, I can believe it, unfortunately.
Which is fine, this year is stacked enough as it is game wise, don't need to spend extra money on Switch hardware lol
NEVERGood. Now we can chill with the constant Pro talk and focus on games.
tbh it’d be easier to focus on games if they looked and ran betterGood. Now we can chill with the constant Pro talk and focus on games.
Having followed this discussion for a while, I have consistently heard late 2022 - early 2023 as a speculated 'consensus' for possible release timeframe. I've never heard early 2022. Even in late 2021, I've been reading late 2022 - early 2023.I'm gonna be honest it is a little tiring that people are now saying H2 of 2023 makes sense. First it was H1 2022. Then it was H2 2022, even as recently as this weekend. Then it was H1 of 2023(with Botw2 ofc) and now H2 of 2023.
It was never H1 2022. It remains H2 2022-early 2023 as it has always been said to be since the beginning of 2021.I'm gonna be honest it is a little tiring that people are now saying H2 of 2023 makes sense.

Eventually you guys will be right ig, lol. But right now this speculation is a bit tiring, no?
Logically speaking these shortages point to nothing substantial coming. There was definitely something coming but covid and the supply shortage made it unfeasible.
Quit it with the excuses we all know real gamers don’t play gamestbh it’d be easier to focus on games if they looked and ran better
Nate’s podcasts started veering into early 2022 territory from March 2021 after Digital Foundry poured cold water on the idea of it being 2021.Having followed this discussion for a while, I have consistently heard late 2022 - early 2023 as a speculated 'consensus' for possible release timeframe.

I'm sticking to this timeframe, myself. Nikkei's report seems to be reasonable and informed analysis but is not gospel that guarantees a new console cannot be revealed or released this fiscal year. Maybe the release slips into the next fiscal year but still falls into early '23, because of said shortages. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
Either way the hardware from the Nvidia data breach exists and will be in our (or scalpers' hands), unlikely it's some cancelled project that never got off the ground like the Nintendo Indy.
Ah ok, I'm definitely curious about what's going on behind the scenes. COVID, war in Ukraine and shortages introduce so many confounding factors that I don't doubt whatever existing plans got screwed up.Nate’s podcasts started veering into early 2022 territory from March 2021 after Digital Foundry poured cold water on the idea of it being 2021.
At one point he said it needed to be announced before April 2022 but I don't think he ever explained why he thought that.
Well he seems to put that down to a mistake now so I don't think it was an actual thing.Ah ok, I'm definitely curious about what's going on behind the scenes. COVID, war in Ukraine and shortages introduce so many confounding factors that I don't doubt whatever existing plans got screwed up.
We know.Don't expect a new Nintendo Switch model this financial year - report
Nintendo won't launch another new Switch model during the current financial year, ending in March 2023. That's accordin…www.eurogamer.net
I'm recalling a ResetEra member - Matt I believe - who vaguely hinted at having / seeing (?) devkits with comments like "Neat" and "Very neat." (the latter in response to a report about a DLSS Switch). This was last year.not that I put much stock in my vibes, but I find this harder and harder to believe
Furukawa backstage after the interview:put on your tinfoil hats, i’ve got a conspiracy theory
Furukawa is trying to make the public message “we are trying our best to make as many as we can but it’s gonna be rough and we might not be able to fulfill demand” so people think ”well I guess I should buy hardware asap” to try to goose sales to counterbalance the sales drop that’ll occur when solid word/pictures come out (officially or otherwise) that the Pro is real and will be coming out before end of FY23
This isn't even remotely true but I'm not going to argue because there's no point.It was never H1 2022. It remains H2 2022-early 2023 as it has always been said to be since the beginning of 2021.
I really hate this revisionism that makes people who like to discuss rumors look like goal post moving idiots. It's extremely toxic.
Well not really, the earliest it can be is April 2023.It was never H1 2022. It remains H2 2022-early 2023 as it has always been said to be since the beginning of 2021.

That's if you 100% believe this report which I don't think anyone should be at the moment. It needs the same level of salt as most Nikkei reporting (which isn't much, but still some).Well not really, the earliest it can be is April 2023.
I do believe it more than Nate. I mean both Nate and Nikei. Could be right if it launches between April and August, but you know what I mean.That's if you 100% believe this report which I don't think anyone should be at the moment.

You're not arguing because you'll be wrong. All the timeline is in the future hardware op.This isn't even remotely true but I'm not going to argue because there's no point.
But a lot what had leaked was did fit the Nvidea leak?I think it's about time that we realize that most of these Switch Pro rumors (outside of the Nvidia leaks) are either outdated or misleading, if not completely false. If the early rumors were true this would be out by now or in the next few months. But it's not. I'm thinking 2024 Switch 2 now.
I'm not arguing because the other person found it toxic. Is that hard for you to understand?You're not arguing because you'll be wrong. All the timeline is in the future hardware op.
The Nvidia leak lines up very well with the other rumors, though. Including with respect to timing. I have some reservations about the claim in this article, but even if it's true, the hardware really should be on store shelves by this time next year.I think it's about time that we realize that most of these Switch Pro rumors (outside of the Nvidia leaks) are either outdated or misleading, if not completely false.

I think even with new hardware coming out they will have a good chance of passing the PS2. Supply issues & cross-gen will keep the Switch relevant for a bit.My dream is for the switch to overtake the PS2 in sales and so I either want the new hardware to either be counted towards the sales or it not to come out for a few more years so the switch has the best chance at surpassing the PS2.
I don't know if he's toxic but he has his facts straight and that's easy to grasp.I'm not arguing because the other person found it toxic. Is that hard for you to understand?
Okay you clearly aren't paying attention. He found what I said to be toxic so I dropped it. How is that not easy for you to grasp?I don't know if he's toxic but he has his facts straight and that's easy to grasp.
I wouldn't say all that, but I'm definitely there with you on rumors. To the people who enjoy them they're their own reward, but I think in my case I've wasted a lot of time trying to understand what's happening through them.Let this be a lesson, not to waste time with rumours and with so called insiders. The whole Switch Pro rumours since day one of Switchs lifecycle, were mostly there to generate traffic and a desperate attempt to slow down Switchs success.
... Nikkei's report is an insider report though.Let this be a lesson, not to waste time with rumours and with so called insiders. The whole Switch Pro rumours since day one of Switchs lifecycle, were mostly there to generate traffic and a desperate attempt to slow down Switchs success.
So true. They will cite Nikkei or Bloomberg whenever it suits their narrative to troll and insult people.... Nikkei's report is an insider report though.
I like how last year Bloomberg and Nikkei were lying "so-called insiders" and now Nikkei's word is gospel since it aligns to your particular narrative.
