Nintendo has made it very clear that they won’t be releasing a new switch console in any way, shape or form in 2020. But can we really trust them? Well, apparently not, because a new leak may have revealed Nintendo’s plans, which might actually involve a new switch console being released later this year. It might sound crazy, but according to reverse engineer and infos, second coziest Mike Haskin. The Nintendos switches ten point zero point zero firmware update has spilled the beans and let the entire world know about a new switch console and an interesting feature it might include.
This update is one of the best we’ve seen for the switch as we’re now allowed to fully remap all of the buttons on the console, which is something we’ve wanted since launch. While most of us got excited for a full button remapping and some other accessibility features, others, like Haskin, dug deeper into the files and noticed that the ten point zero point zero update added preliminary support for a new hardware model known as an X ABC D. He also noted that there’s evidence of a secondary display being added exclusively for that switch model. Now the code name for the Nintendo switch light is an X ABC B, which is just a little different from the one Haskin mentioned, which has us thinking that this could definitely be logit.
The thing is, this isn’t going to be a brand new revolutionary console from Nintendo. We don’t expect to somehow get a Nintendo switch capable of ray tracing an 8k visuals at one hundred and twenty frames per second. We also highly doubt you guys were expecting that either. If we had to guess, we’d think that this new switch is just a beefier version of the Nintendo switch light. We saw Nintendo give the switch a bit of a refresh last summer so it wouldn’t shock us for them to do the same thing for the switch light and give this new console a Tegra X1 plus processor.
But the idea that there might be a second screen with this new Nintendo switch has us thinking there’s going to be something more than just a new processor in this upcoming console. If this league is true, then maybe we’ll be getting an entirely new type of Nintendo switch console, one that isn’t quite as versatile as the regular Nintendo switch and not quite as limited as these switch light, a mid tier level switch, if you will. The issue is trying to figure out exactly what this second screen could be. Paskin doesn’t have any additional information about the screen, which has us thinking that it could be a few different things. Are we getting some sort of clamshell design for this new switch with two screens like a 3D s or is it going to be something like the we–you and its gamepad? OK, we’ve seriously doubt it’s something like the way you gamepad situation because that will just make absolutely no sense for Nintendo.
The switch perfected everything the way you brought to the table and the way you was an absolute flop of a console. So Nintendo is not going to take a step backwards for no reason at all, which means we may be getting an a Tendo switch D.S.. If you’re wondering how Nintendo switch D-AZ could work. Just think of the original D.S. and 3D as the main game is being displayed on the top screen with the bottom screen being used to provide additional information to players in general. The bottom screen wasn’t as useful as it could have been, but it really varied from game to game.
It was very important for some games like Animal Crossing, for example, and would also help on the switch. Think about it in New Horizons, even with the sound cue. It’s sometimes quite difficult to spot those balloons in the sky. If the switch had a second screen that it could have been used to show the sky and we’d have been able to easily identify that a balloon was flying in the air and where it was. It would have even helped with those pesky meteor showers.
And that’s just for one game for Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild. It could have been used to showcase a map of the dungeon or area and RPG games like Fire Emblem 3 houses. It could have been used to show the status of your team and where they were on the battlefield. The opportunities are endless for the second screen and if anyone can figure out how to use it effectively, it’s Nintendo. They’re not just going to forget how the DSM 3 t yes worked. So we trust them completely. Of course, andthese second screen wasn’t a part of a switch from launch.
A lot of older games most likely won’t have support for a second screen. But if Haskins leak turns out to be true, games will slowly make use of the second screen over time. Who knows? Maybe older switch games actually will get updated to support the second screen. That being said, weed out the bottom screen will have 3D capabilities if they do end up releasing a switch to yes we expect intended to keep things simple with the console and give it the same 720p touchscreen display. As for whether or not you could dock the Nintendo switch D.S., well, we seriously doubt you’ll be able to because as far as we know, no company has plans for a TV screen TV.
Meaning that second screen won’t be displayed on a TV. Or at least we seriously hope Nintendo isn’t working on a two screen TV for the switch. That would be a bit. Much of Nintendo really wants to sell the second screen as a major feature. Then the console won’t be DOCA ball. What we can expect as a console more similar to the switch light than the regular switch. Yep, that’s right. If this leak is true, it doesn’t support the idea of an Tendo switch pro at all.
But what it does do is indicate that a unique yet all too familiar clamshell type handheld console may be joining the Nintendo lineup in 2020 or 2021 with the switch to yes, we’re all for it as a mid tier option for gamers interested in the Nintendo switch. But how well the second screen will be used and what process the console will use remains to be seen. Only time will tell if there’s any truth to this rumor. And that’s everything we know about a possible Nintendo switch. D.S.. But do you think about all this? Are you interested in a dual screen switch or prefer the current single screen setup?
