What is the Switch Pro?

There’s the Switch. Then there’s the Switch Lite. What’s missing? The Switch Pro. In this article we explore which form it will eventually take. One of these will make the cut.

A sign of the hypocrisy of Nintendo fans who say they don’t care about how powerful a console is

JHOP2462d ago

We do and we don't. It's a tricky situation. Other consoles are represented by their power. That's all they do. Nintendo consoles always have something more. Some other element that completes the package. We care about graphics because having an even better handheld experience is a unique thing. Having a hybrid console that can give us both the home and portable experience in a neat package is fascinating.

Couldn’t have said it better myself really.

Playstation isn't just about power either.

“Other consoles are represented by their power. That's all they do.“

Really? Have you tried PSVR?

Astro Bot: Rescue Mission is the Mario of VR. In fact I’d say it’s one the best platformers ever made.

I like Nintendo Switch but I’d love a Switch Pro. Nothing wrong with more powerful hardware so games can look and perform better.

Some solid points here, but saying that 'power' is all other consoles do is just nonsense.

Well that doesn't make much sense. Are fans making it?

Maybe it's aimed at your not-so-dedicated Nintendo fans who do care about the lower specs of the OG Switch.

Lon3wolf2461d ago

And does this article represent all Nintendo fans or is it the opinion of the writer?

SyntheticForm2461d ago

Good distinction; glad you made it.

indysurfn2461d ago

To be fair (and rational) If you read the article you would notice it is a sign that the DEVELOPERS want more power to translate their game to. Nintendo fans don't port games.

Segata2461d ago

By that logic, PS4 and Xbox owners should not care about power either since a PC is better than all of them.

Im hoping either a switch with a 1080p screen and overall better hardware or a dock only switch thats much more powerful about the power of the base ps4.

More powerful Switch Console.

Something that does not exist.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle9d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
