The Switch firmware 12.0.0 update is live, and it interestingly has some code in there that allow for future dock upgrading. Thanks to dataminers, we have learned the possible reason for this big, new firmware update.
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 hope it confirms Switch Pro as being a dock rather than a new system. A res boost and more power to enable split screen in docked mode would be nice.
Would be great if they released a switch 2 with new dock and you could buy the dock separately to boost current switch. Interesting times ahead.
This means new Switch have the new dock. Dock will make upscale 4K or DLSS, not the real Switch hardware. Yes better screen and other improvement but real deal is the new Dock. This is the good strategy from Nintendo. Old Switch hardware will keep run with this new Dock release.
they need to fix the damn drift issues for the joycons before they make a new system tbh
