Rumor: Possible Nintendo Leaks About The Switch Pro

The most-requested video game equipment in the gaming community is the Nintendo Switch Pro. Even though the console doesn’t exist yet, it is a video game console that every Nintendo fan needs now. After all, it’s been more than six years since the Switch has been on the market.

There have been many reports from fans that the new and upcoming Switch games don’t run as smoothly as the past ones did. So it won’t be wrong to say that Switch is nearing the end of its life cycle. Meanwhile, the internet is full of rumors related to the rumored Switch Pro.

There have been hundreds of rumors related to a Switch successor since 2019. But after Nintendo revealed there won’t be any hardware released in the fiscal year of 2022, there are rumors that the much-awaited next-gen Switch might release later this year. So let’s take a look at everything we know related to this Switch Pro from the rumors.

Everything about the rumored Nintendo Switch Pro

The rumors about Nintendo working on a next-gen Switch solidified when Nvidia fell victim to leaks. Last year, there were multiple leaks related to Nvidia, which is a leading company in the GPU race. This GPU company works very closely with Nintendo, as the Switch consoles use custom Nvidia Tegra X1 chips.

But one latest leak revealed that Nintendo is working with Nvidia’s latest Tegra239, simply called T239. Many believed this leak because this T239 chip supported NVN2, which is believed to be the successor to the NVN. For those who don’t know about NVN, it is the Application Programming Interface (API) for a Switch device.

If these leaks were true, that means the upcoming Switch would support ray tracing, which would help improve a game’s graphics. Aside from these chips, there were also rumors that the next console could have a 4K resolution. There were rumors about Dev Kits sent to many game developers.

A Dev Kit can be said as a stripped-down version of a console that is sent to developers for them to start working on games for the new console even before its release. Many believe the bugs and glitches in the latest games like Pokemon Scarlet & Violet were because they were built for this rumored next-gen console.
