Specifications & Features
1. Performance & Chipset:
Chip: Custom NVIDIA T234 (Orin) chip.
This would be a massive leap from the current Switch's Tegra X1, enabling modern graphics features like:
DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling): This is the most heavily rumored and significant feature. It would use AI to upscale lower-resolution images to a higher resolution in real-time. This means the console could run games at, for example, 1080p internally but use DLSS to output a crisp, native-looking 4K image on a TV, saving significant performance.
Ray Tracing: Capable of real-time ray tracing for more realistic lighting, shadows, and reflections.
2. Display:
Screen: Likely to remain an LCD screen to keep costs down, rather than an OLED. However, it could be a larger screen, moving from 6.2" to around 7-8 inches.
Resolution: Handheld mode resolution is expected to be 1080p, a nice bump from the current 720p, making games look much sharper on the device itself.
3. Form Factor & Compatibility:
Design: The prevailing rumor is that it will maintain the hybrid handheld/home console form factor. It may be slightly larger and heavier to accommodate the new hardware and a bigger screen.
Backward Compatibility: This is a major point of discussion. Most analysts and insiders believe backward compatibility with original Nintendo Switch games (both physical and digital) is a top priority for Nintendo. This would be a huge win for consumers with existing game libraries.
Cartridges: It is expected to use a new physical game card format, but the console might still have a slot that can read the older Switch game cards for backward compatibility.
