I wont hold my breath for a Switch Pro, but like many have mentioned I can see a Switch TV like the Vita TV, but please have Netflix by then (or sooner lol)

It must really arrive in 2020 if else Nintendo can just roll out a NS 2.

What the hell is this “Switch Pro” thing? I see it mentioned a few times in this forum. Is it some kind of dev kit?

What's the pro version going to do? BSe versions struggle as some games look awful. No doubt pro will look better but it will make original purchasers feel pissed

The upgrade might be smaller than 3DS to new 3DS. Seems that is just the regular switch with a similar chip of Lite version.
Allows to double the battery life in HH mode, and increase the clock on dock to better performance for dinamic resolution games.
In the worst of cases, wont be rebranded, and be the same switch.
In the best of cases, will be rebranded(switch +), less belezs, 1080p screen and allows an optional performance mode on hh, to match the regular switch dock performance hh.

Anyway, 2020.

No, Nintendo filed to make changes to their original model.  It’s like how the 360 had like 4 different types of chip configurations.  Console makers do this when they find ways to reduce cost.  The FCC report is just some modifications to the orginal, most likely to incorporate new methods to cut costs, not a new model.

edit:  it could mean very slight improvements, but it wouldn’t be enough for Nintendo to market it as a new model.

I can't see a Switch home console that's cheaper than the Switch hybrid. If Nin wanted that, they could have just included a dock with Switch Lite, or maybe they will sell one as an optional add on. If you want a dedicated Switch home console you likely want more performance, otherwise just buy a Switch hybrid, since it has a dock.

How can anyone call lite niche? It's targeting the 3ds/day market (which is bigger than the Wii/Wii u/switch one) at a ridiculously cheap introductory price. It's also got the high likely hood of current switch owners buying it not to replace their switch but to have in addition to for more outside time. This thing will sell far more than any Switch Pro would. Compare 2ds or Ds Lite sales to new 3ds sales for proof. The hardcore will just wait it out until a new generation comes out a year or two after the pro, making it sell horribly. Nintendo knows their market and what they are doing. Yes to the Lite, no to the pro, and bring on Switch 2 in a few years.

NVidia apparently updated the X1 slightly for their next Shield TV, so it's quite probable the original X1 production will end and be replaced by the new model.

And the change in NAND could mean that the upcoming model may come with a larger storage space, which would be a nice bonus. Not sure if it's possible to have 2 different models with this that only differ in their storage space (and maybe color scheme), but if that's possible with this, then I expect the OG Switch to drop to $250 around the holiday season and a new "top model" with 128GB storage space along with it at the original pricetag.

You're daydreaming.
