A dataminer leaked a new model of the Switch named "nx-abcd" found in Switch Firmware version 10.0.0, The new model will have two screens, it will probably be like pic related because of Nintendo wanting a successor to the 3DS.

Fake and gay
how would it even close?
I'd actually love to buy a dual screen Switch. Having two clamshell screens is pretty comfy.
please be true, I want another EO without sacrificing anything
Should honestly happen, two screens is more plausible with a higher-power portable system these days thanks to battery improvements (assuming nintendo doesn't bungle that)
Two screens will be a soft return to nintendo's risk-taking ideology though, i'd love to see more creativity in approaches to games again. Should be much cooler since nintendo's working so well with third parties now
Assuming this model releases, what would be the point? Unless they're making 3ds games compatible, but why not have that from the start?
sure thing "leaker"
It's literally a real thing, follow the link.
That wouldn't even close because of the joycons sticking out, try harder.
inb4 it's just an accessory
I just fucking got a switch come on dude this is why i don't buy nintendo shit
how's that nintendo's fault
the screen on top is too large. how would you even get the joycons off?
For doing it?
AS LONG AS ITS A PRO VERSION
DUAL SCREEN IS THE FUCKING BEST
Please bring back the Wii U style TV + Handheld screen
It's obviously using their WiiU video streaming tech to allow wirelessly docking to a TV.
Just fucking make a small box as powerful as a regular PS4 and package it with a Pro controller. How hard is this? Why does Nintendo never, ever get the message that the only people interested in the "genius" is them?
But youve had 3 years to buy a switch. Is nintendo supposed to wait for you?
Please god be this. The Wii U was so amazing.
If this actually comes to pass and the TWEWY port isn't revamped Square Enix can eat shit forever.
After the failing of the Wii U which was their attempt to fall into line with the others I doubt they will ever try to directly compete again.
The second screen can be a foldable attachment. Think you fucking moron.
So how do you play this docked? Now I need dua monitor set up? Fuck Nintendo
yeah and it protects the screen
Shut up early adopter shill. Nintendo is making the best games they have made in over a decade with the limitations of the switch and you want some additional clutter just so you can play some garbage gimmicky bullshit. Truly retarded.
They're always releasing new revisions of shit which is why I waited so long
3ds
2ds
3ds xl
new 3ds
new 3ds xl
new 2ds xl
It's ridiculous
You attach the second screen to the joy cons. It slides in just like a regular switch screen. If functions like a wii U. Think you fucking idiot
Why do flip-up portables look like only people under the age of 13 should be carrying them and anyone outside of that description is a fat, balding social reject?
We all remember what a great business decision the Wii u was
>make a concept
>give it bezels that look like the OG iPhone
Does Nintendo only approve the stupidest possible ideas?
>The new model will have two screens
this is headcanon tho.
>fat, balding social reject
>saying that like it's a bad thing
Casual.
I completely agree. The Gameboy advance felt great to walk around with. When I got a ds I didn't want to be seen dead with it.
No that's your mom mate, she approved you
What if they made the screen detachable? So you can use it like a DS on the go and like a WiiU when docked.
clamshell design sounds terrible, it would be too big. I'd like more specifics of what the guy means by secondary display, i think the best fit would be a dock with standalone hardware that connects to the current switch
The only leaking in this thread is your brain leaking out of your ear for posting this untrue bullshit. Yeah, I'm kinda based.
Tits or ass, boys?
Some guy on twitter said it, no way. Do you know how much clout those twitter guys have?
Your personal bias. I'm chad as fuck and rocked my DS/3DS all through college.
Why the hell would they ever go back to 2 screens? Hardly any game on DS, 3DS, or Wii U actually took advantage of the multiple screens to make unique games and most just dumped UI or maps on the second screen. Since Switch is 720p it has the resolution where it's no longer needed to dump those things on a separate screen since you can put them off in a corner instead.
>source: dude trust me
>Literally all sources are linking to this tweet
hmmmm you'd think if this was real anyone would be able to find it.
That's just capitalism, no one forces you to buy them.
>nothing to plug the top screen
>this is where the exhaust is, meaning the switch would literally overheat in less than 3 minutes
>no game is designed around a second screen
>it would take the interest off the "plug on your tv on the go if you want"
heavens, this is worse than steve leaks
If they go for a Switch lite kind of size then it wouldn't be substantially bigger than the 2DS XL. Nintendo seem to have conceded that docking was just another gimmick and are basically treating it like a handheld now, so I wouldn't be surprised if a third hardware revision was slightly smaller than the lite and clamshelled
That doesn't even make sense.
How is the regular switch compatible with something that has an extra screen?
>Nintendo seem to have conceded that docking was just another gimmick and are basically treating it like a handheld now
Another example of Nintendo only giving a fuck about what Japan wants. In the West the use is almost exactly 50/50 docked and handheld, but in Japan it's mostly handheld and thus Switch Lite. But even there, people buy the Switch more unless there's nothing but Lites available. People like options.

But those are pretty much the same shit in a different package. Adding a screen to the switch would leave all of their user base needing a new console after 3 year just for a fucking screen. It'll never happen.

Seems like it may be a dock-only system.
>Another example of Nintendo only giving a fuck about what Japan wants
Honestly this is a good thing
The idea is so stupid that it's hard to even pretend it might happen as I do in other "leak" threads.
i mean, the switch has been doing gangbusters in japan since day 1, moreso than any other region
If you had a 3DSXL you could safely ignore the other versions. Hell a lot of people think that the XL screen is too big and stretches the image in an ugly way.
The docking was a gimmick that was also their way of cleverly killing off 3DS so that they can focus just on their Switch because Nintendo realized their non-shovelware output isn't enough anymore to sustain both a handheld and a home console. Now Switch is doing better and they're treading the waters again. But the Switch + whatever this new model will be desperately need some actually -new- entries in their IPs rather than shameless Wii U ports with Deluxe slapped on them. Doubt that will happen, unfortunately.
