Re: Rumour: New Nintendo Switch SKU Planned For Late 2019

I understand the concerns with alienating the userbase with a revised Switch with better specs that would allow for exclusive games on the new hardware, but the reason there are so few third-party games on Switch compared to its competition is because of its lackluster specs. I would be totally on board with selling or gifting my current Switch and upgrading my hardware to something that could run games at the graphical quality of the base PS4 at least. Also, hardware revisions could allow for so many more features than just upgraded performance. Bluetooth headset capability, more RAM to allow for background apps (so Nintendo could finally merge the Switch Online app into the console itself and add more features to it. Party chats and instant messaging, anyone?), a larger battery (never been a problem for me, but some people never play in docked mode so it's understandably an issue for many), and even revisions to the joy-cons and pro controller such as a headphone jack. There's so much potential in a Switch Pro and I fully support it, as long as Nintendo doesn't squander the opportunity.
