If Sony PS5 and Microsoft Xbox Series X can be launched and sold at the end of this year as scheduled, 2021 will be the first year of market competition for the new generation of game consoles.
such a competitive landscape, Nintendo will naturally not miss it. As another member of Yusanjia, Nintendo also recently exposed the new game console Switch Pro.
is just different from Sony PS5 and Microsoft's soft Xbox Series X, which are big product iterations. The previously exposed Nintendo Switch Pro is only a relatively small upgrade. After all, the current momentum of the Switch is hot, and there is no sign of weakness or obsolescence. Therefore, it is not appropriate to launch an upgraded version at this time.
only waits for the commercial value of the Switch to be wiped out. The hardware platform can no longer meet the new demands of players for games, and the new Switch is necessary.
According to the news, Switch Pro will not support ray tracing and 8K resolution. Only minor upgrades have been made for reading speed and image quality. In addition, according to the news, Switch Pro will also support dual-screen display.
On August 24, Taiwan’s digital media broke the news about the new Switch. The new Switch will start stocking in the fourth quarter of this year and will be available early next year. But whether it is called Switch Pro or not, there is no answer.
Perhaps this Switch Pro is just like the enhanced battery life version of the Switch. It is a small upgrade and will gradually replace the ordinary Switch in the future.
