Nintendo will be releasing a new Nintendo Switch development model with more onboard memory.
Earlier this week, Nintendo announced its Nintendo Switch OLED model. Unfortunately, the new model doesn’t come with the long-rumored hardware improvements, including an improved CPU and extra memory. As covered yesterday, the announcement of the Switch OLED doesn’t totally rule out the existence of the rumored ‘Pro’ model, and the model might just be an interim model as a reaction to the ongoing component shortages and development of Breath of the Wild 2.
Interestingly, Eurogamer’s Digital Foundry has performed a specification analysis of the new Switch OLED and reports that Nintendo will be releasing an upgraded development model with increased memory.
As expected, with Nintendo releasing an upgraded dev model, this has many believing that the rumored Switch Pro model is still on the table.
What are your thoughts about this? Will Nintendo eventually release a Nintendo Switch Pro or will fans just have to wait for a next-gen Switch model? Hit the comments down below.
The new Nintendo Switch OLED launches on October 8th for $349.99.
