so wrong in many levels, not even the nvidia shield was capable of what the switch is doing, that's why the thing had a streaming service and not physical games. Because the technology was too expensive for the time. Now we have new architectures for graphic chips that allow better visuals on a tablet and less power consumption, as a matter of fact nvidia was going to use that for their new shield, but was cancelled because of the switch. Even the razer edge tablet was a similar product, a tablet with controllers and less power for a $1,000. Also, now is that cards with big storage are less expensive for mass production. So I would say that now is the right moment for the switch. |
Had you read the OP, you would have seen that i didnt think that it was actually viable 2 years go, but in the near future. Here we are 2 years after the OP and the newest console is really a tablet with gimicky little controllers attached. two years ago u could get a tablet and buy external controllers easily for it. the problem back then was the games.
It is near the end of the end....
