| Wman1996 said: The rumored Switch Pro will almost surely add more RAM. But I couldn't see anyway Nintendo would've launched a hybrid platform in 2017 with more than 4 GB RAM. Nintendo hates selling hardware at a loss or merely breaking even. Loading the Switch with 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM would've been very costly to Nintendo. It would've been especially costly and difficult in a mobile device. The world's first smartphone with 8 GB RAM didn't even launch until 2017. Smartphones with 8 GB RAM are more affordable and common now, but they're still not the standard yet. I don't know if there's a way to split RAM between the the tablet and dock. If there is, I suppose Nintendo could've put 4 GB RAM in the tablet and an extra 2 GB or even 4 GB in the dock. |
Right, I certainly considered 4GB of RAM is respectable for a mobile device. Just pointing out more could have been very benefitical for handling modern games and cleaning up blurry textures.
Something I would love to see in a new Switch but certainly won't happen is add some of that super fast NVMe storage. Like maybe just 128GB which seems to be cheap. I would love if Switch had quick resume like the Xbox Series consoles. Perhaps Switch could even enhance games using NVMe as memory. Kinda like how demanding 7th gen consoles utilized a HDD for memory. I certainly hope they at least consider that for the next Nintendo device.
