because they're more ridiculous?With Switch we got some fairly accruate reporting from actual journalists, and with Switch 2 we have started getting those reports as well as actual stolen documents from Nvidia.
So I have no idea why we would listen to anonymous 4chan posts.
ps4 will be more powerful.because they're more ridiculous?
We're going to get a console around PS4-level performance with a few boosts from modern architecture,
and not gonna lie
I can live with that
nah, bet you're one of the switch is weaker than ps3 types,ps4 will be more powerful.
Nah, honestly I was joking lol. Dlss is a huge advantage for switch 2.nah, bet you're one of the switch is weaker than ps3 types,
It has BC too.No BC? Trash.
It has BC too.
It actually has DLSS 9.0 which automatically remasters/remakes games. My sources say BoTW on Switch 2 looks and runs like a ps6 game. But since it's done with DLSS9.0 you can use the original Switch cartridge and you need no extra downloads or patches.
Or the butler or shifty mustacheod janitorThis is bullshit. Reread the leak and think about who this dude would have to be in order to have the information he claims to have. He talks about the decision-making process within Nvidia and Nintendo as if he was present at discussions between the companies and has a full understanding of their negotiations and motivations. No one in such a significant position of responsibility within either company would go on 4chan and leak, not only because there would be no incentive to do so, but also because they'd be part of a tiny pool of potential suspects. Leaks like this that have an elaborate, compelling story and give a ton of context and backstory are almost always exactly what they read like: fan fiction.
The leaks that turn out to be true are limited in their scope and offer incomplete information, because real leakers are often people lower on the food chain who are only privy to specific information that's relevant to the context of their employment. It pays to ask not whether the contents of the leak are plausible (because that usually just means leaning on vague "common sense" about how we think companies should behave) but whether the context of the leak makes sense.
So, for example, I buy the Eurogamer/VGC reports about the Breath of the Wild and Matrix demos, because the chain of custody is crystal clear: Nintendo showed off target hardware for the Switch 2 to developers at Gamescom -> some of those developers spoke about what they saw to the press on the condition that they remain anonymous. The contents of those stories were strictly limited to the impressions of those developers and things they would have actually seen (which is why you get rough impressionistic comments comparing it to the PS5 or whatever instead of concrete performance information) and don't contain shit that third party devs wouldn't know (like pricing or the launch lineup).
Meanwhile, this is the exact opposite: there's no way to ascertain what this person's relationship to Nintendo or Nvidia is and no way to contextualize this information. It's all third person omniscient shit, which is a very efficient point-of-view when you're writing a novel or short story and want to give the reader as much information as possible, but makes no sense in the real world unless you're a fucking psychic or God.
Yup. Any time the leaker describes the industry in terms of friendship and rivalry like it's a middle school popularity contest, you can reliably call fake.4chan thread was written by someone who sounds 17.
Stop this and just wait
It's wonderful how nervously everyone is waiting, with baited breath, for the full hardware reveal.
You'll get more than that. Current Switch is basically that with less brute force, it can punch above its weights a lot and it's currently just 30% to 35% Xbone in raw GPU performance and it won't make a jump smaller than 5x in GPU alone.All I want is PS4/XBONE level power and I'll be fine with it
ok my babies, let's talk like adults !
show some pictures of what you think Switch 2 will be able to run in real time ! !!!
So we are looking at a minimum 500 dollar machine at launch unless they totally cheap out on the screen and device build quality. In EU with inflation and taxes that’s more like 600.
Still, I’m a sucker for portable gaming so it will be worth it.
But but…..if FP32 process and fast memory with Nvidia 3nm tech through Nintendo custom sauce then 4K 60fps games better than PS5 and XBOX. Also, hardware efficient so 6 hours battery at least.
You guys just don't learn.
I gave up on Nintendo when it comes to hardware after the release of the Wii U.
They could have very easily released a console more powerful than the 360/PS3, but didn't.
They don't care, Nintendo hardware is designed to turn profit day one and to sell Nintendo first party games, that's all.
If it's a RTX 5000 series as post #119 suggests we're talking 4.7 PS5s taped together. A very scientific number that I spent way too much thinking about, for a stupid joke.So how many PS5s taped together are we talking here?
With the Activision rumorsSeems people are getting a bit too excited from what I can tell. I think this’ll be a system that’s at most $399, all while making Nintendo a profit from day 1.
If some parts are more expensive you can bet they’ll make cuts elsewhere.
tbf despite Nintendo's failure with the Wii U,they just couldn't go all the way from developing SD 3DS/Wii games to Xbox ONE/PS4 tier without trouble ,Wii U served as the middle ground to get their teams familiar with "HD" gamesI gave up on Nintendo when it comes to hardware after the release of the Wii U.

Yeah because you will be put in the PS4 ghetto.Nintendo is gonna take us out of the cross-gen ghetto (PS5/SS-X)
With PLXXIt runs everything at 200k Resolution
With PLXX
FFS
48~72 hours he was saying its T239 on samsung 8nm
all over the place
edit : OK, he still says its T239, and explained that T254 is blackwell, not that Switch 2 uses it. So T254 is only from that 4chan rumour, that's not a credible source.
