Say somehow Nintendo is capable of producing  next gen with a Switch Pro that produces the following environment for the console:

  • It is part of the Switch family like the 2ds is part of the 3ds family.  Sales would still go under the switch family.
  • It will play switch games like Smash brothers, BOTW, SMO, basically any other switch game.  Of course no upgrade, but possible Pro versions of games older switch games like MKdeluxe Pro(Yeah I know it's redundant).
  • It will also play all 3rd party games without the downgrade of graphical fidelity.  You know, COD, Battlefield, NBA2k2020, Red Dead 3, etc.
  • Older Switch models will strictly be playing Switch made games.  
  • It's gonna cost you $400+ because it's pro.
I'm not saying this is what's going to happen, but I wonder if it might just be enticing enough for people get on board.   There's the whole baggage of disenfranchising casual switch owners, having to decide whether Nintendo would make the next LOZ on the next gen engine or stick with the switch, confusing the market if it's decided there's a higher quality version of the same game.  There's just so much division and anarchy with such a console.  But despite all this havoc I have one question for you: would you be down?
