Lol, they shadow dropped the reveal teaser/trailer. One thing I can say is that Nintendo didn't show a fully digital SKU in the reveal trailer and I respect that.

The leaks just keep on coming almost daily. Switch 2 Docked/Undocked Tflops leaked.

https://wccftech.com/nintendo-switch-2-docked-undocked-tflops-have-been-leaked/

Data mining may have leaked the Nintendo Switch 2's computing power in teraflops. According to Famiboards user Zachy, the undocked or handheld mode will have a GPU clock speed of 561 MHz, translating into 1.71 TFLOPS. In docked mode, the GPU clock speed nearly doubles at 1000 Mhz, translating to around 3.1 TFLOPS.

That's one-fourth of the 12 TFLOPS of the GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, which launched in 2021. However, the RTX 3060 is a desktop GPU, so it's not an apples-to-apples comparison. A better comparison is Microsoft's Xbox Series S console. It has been said that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be less powerful than the Xbox Series S, and indeed, the leaked TFLOPS data supports that theory since the Series S has 4 TFLOPS of computing power. That's not a big difference, though, and third-party game developers will undoubtedly use their Xbox Series S configurations as starting targets for their ports to the new Nintendo console.

The Nintendo Switch 2, powered by NVIDIA's Tegra 239 SoC (featuring an eight-core CPU and an Ampere-based GPU with 2048 CUDA cores), does have an advantage over the Xbox Series S: its reported native support for NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and Ray Reconstruction technology. While the latter may not prove to be very useful as developers wouldn't want to spend the meager GPU power on ray tracing effects, DLSS SR will indeed be invaluable to uplift the performance to acceptable standards.

I don't like this. Square Enix wants to deny themselves with earning money. Denying fans access to games and services that they paid money for is rude and Square Enix might not give their customers refunds.

Their customers will feel robbed and it will make them stop buying stuff from Square Enix.

I voted for no. I also would be fine if they called it the "Switch 2".

@Pedro: @luxuryheart: Yeah, we're coming off a whole generation with no price drops. Switch 2 will be $400 at least, probably $450 so the OLED Switch can stay somewhat appealing at $350.

Corporate greed. They are greedy pricks. The Switch 2 might end up having a decent price.

Looks like Xbox is going 3rd party. They'll make money through software sales on others platforms and whatever game sales they get on Xbox, but their hardware sales will take a nosedive.
