DLSS is just an AI imaging reconstruction technique, it doesn't really care what game it's working on, it's just examining an image frame and then reconstructing that to appear at a higher resolution than it actually is. 

I think it would be most reasonable for them to charge $349. I could see them going up to $399 though.

I'd like them to go for $399 (stripped down) and $499 (standard). But they're probably going for $299 and $399, or just one model at $399.

The Z1 are just rebadged 7040U series.

It may have 8.6 Teraflops of FP32... But it can't use it in any meaningful way.

There is one big issue with that.

...Bandwidth. The achilles heel of all mobile processors.

FSR is a given regardless if it's nVidia or not. It's hardware agnostic.

I am of the opinion that 4k is a waste of energy in a mobile device, reconstructed/upscaled/A.I enhanced or otherwise.

1080P is a great middle ground on a 7" panel, provided it's a quality panel and not a TN/VA panel with muddy contrast ratios.

I think it'll launch at $350. I definitely could not see them selling a system at $400 in the near future, that would put them up in Xbox/Playstation style very expensive systems, which Nintendo has always avoided.

But with Switch and OLED still at $300 and $350, and presuming a price drop at least to $250 and $300 for those in the next 12 months, it wouldn't make sense for a next-gen system to launch at what the old (OLED) system sells at - $300. $350 seems like the best bet.

$350 with full backwards compatibility with upscaled resolutions and NSO working on day 1, launching with 3D Mario, with MK9 out within a few weeks of launch. I don't think people would balk at the higher price of $350 with all that available in the launch period.

As far as the resolution as people are talking about it on here, yeah I would think with DLSS Switch 2 will just do 1080 native docked similar to current gen but then leverage DLSS to display games in 4k. From what I understand next-gen games shouldn't have a problem being 4k thanks to that tech. Thanks to this AI tech I think gone are the days where resolutions matter - you just get it performing well at an acceptable resolution and then bump it up to super high rez with AI without sacrificing all that processing power. The actual device screen I could see being 900p, it'd be nice to think 1080p but Nintendo is gonna want to keep costs down and frankly with that sized screen the current 720p is already good, 900p will be real nice. To keep the price at $350 I think we'll see 900p screen and 128g disk.

Assuming this is an iteration of the Switch, not something completely different, and in terms of powers is around PS4 levels, 399€ sounds about right. Do they still have the NVidia partnership deal going on?

$399 mininum.... Since this will probably be Nintendo's first time doing cross gen, they could brave $449 and still keep the regular Switch on the Market at $249

What

Releasing new games across multiple platforms. I.e the next Pokémon being available on Switch and Switch 2. In the past Zelda has been their only cross gen game at release, whereas I think it'll become a theme for the first 2 years of Switch. Not with all first party titles but a lot of them.

Damn not a single person voted for the right option. I was expecting $399 back in 2023 so would've voted for that as well though.
