"Switch Pro and Lite - While the 2019 Switch Pro has been already reported to be in development by the Wall Street Journal, I also think Nintendo will offer a "Switch Lite" (or just keep the current version at a lower price) to cover the lower end of the spectrum and offset sinking 3DS sales."

Can someone show me a solid proof and not a rumor or rumor package that we will see a Switch Pro soon ? I was among those who believes that there won't be any, until today. I say "today" just because maybe one of you will show me a source in a few minutes. Until I see something nearly from Nintendo themself, I still stick on my theory that the current Switch hardware is already the "WiiU Pro" of the 8th generation.

The switch is not at all related to the Wii U. The concept is completely different, the architecture is completely different, the media is completely different.

A Wii U Pro would use power PC architecture, Wii U optical discs, do the assymetric gameplay thing, and might add in another screen to the back of the controller, so you can flip it over on its back to access even more screens while playing. Also, they'll lower the load time to get into games to only 4 minutes.
