Rumor: Nintendo Switch 2 to Feature Custom Nvidia Chip, According to Reuters
The gaming world is abuzz with excitement as rumors circulate about the highly anticipated successor to the Nintendo Switch. According to a recent report from Reuters, the next console from Nintendo will feature a custom Nvidia chip, promising even more power and performance for gamers.
The current Nintendo Switch already boasts the Nvidia Tegra X1 chip, but sources suggest that the Switch 2 will take things to the next level with a custom-designed chip from Nvidia. This news has sent shockwaves through the gaming community, sparking speculation about what this new hardware could mean for the future of gaming.
While Nintendo has declined to comment on the report, industry insiders believe that the Switch 2 will launch later this year. One of the most exciting rumored features of the new console is its 8-inch LCD screen, which would be larger than any of the screens found on current Switch models. The Switch OLED currently has a 7-inch OLED screen, while the original Switch and the Switch Lite have 6.2-inch LCD and 5.5-inch screens, respectively.
The potential for a larger screen opens up a world of possibilities for gamers, allowing for more immersive experiences and enhanced graphics. Coupled with the custom Nvidia chip, the Switch 2 has the potential to deliver unparalleled gaming performance.
Industry experts have also weighed in on the potential price point of the Switch 2. Kantan Games CEO Dr. Serkan Toto predicts that the successor to the Nintendo Switch will retail for $400, with a chance that game prices will increase to $70. Dr. Toto believes that the time is ripe for a Switch successor, stating, “The time is finally here for a Switch successor, even though I can say a ‘Pro’ model actually did exist and certain developers were already working with the dev kit.”
As fans eagerly await official confirmation from Nintendo, the gaming community is buzzing with anticipation. The Switch has already captured the hearts of millions of gamers worldwide, and the prospect of an even more powerful and feature-rich console is enough to make any gamer’s heart skip a beat.
