Could the Nintendo Switch be Underpowered When Used Without Its Dock?
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

I wouldn't exactly use that terminology. I am guessing that the system is limited when in handheld mode so it doesn't kill the battery in like 2 minutes. The dock just allows the system to run in full mode.
Well the Switch won't be able to use the full resolution when it's portable as it would if it were docked so there has to be some form of limitations but not anything that major
It's common sense it would use scaleable hardware. I also think the battery life will vary with each game.
I have a nvidia shield tablet and when I unplug it, it would disable cores for better battery life. For example, when plugged in it would enable all 4 cores. When unplugged, it would disable 2 or depending on if I choose custom mode. I get around 6 hours with single core. With all four cores activated, I get around 3 to 4 hours. But with all cores on, it is a freaking beast.
It is a cool function nvidia added on their tegra k1 processors. But I can't wait for the switch, the unknown specs are killing me with suspense :( :(
