| Amnesia said: I don't want to debate this, I disagree with your way of defining the "Pro" thing. Or let me call it rather "mid gen refresh" instead of "Pro".
I was asking for a solid element which can tell us that we can expect the "Switch Pro" in 2019. |
I also believe there will be no "Switch Pro".
At least not t the effect some seem t think there will be.
There will however be a revision, maybe that comes this year or next but it will come. and these are what I think it will bring with it.
- tegra X1 apu shrunk from 20nm to maybe 14nm/12nm
- size reduction from above results in a fanless unit.
- size reduction also means the apu can be upclocked by abut 10-20% giving "better performance"
- lower power draw as a result of smaller fab apu means longer battery life while using the same battery size.
- possibly larger 1W display but maintaining the same physical footprint. So smaller bezels.
- larger internal flash drive.
Thats it. Those changes will make for a meaningful "upgrade" while also managing to bring the price down. More power has never been the primary driving force with regards to nintendo and their hardware. They will instead focus on ways to make it cheaper and easier for them to make. They more not even drop the price f the revised model.
