I'm kind of bummed about this, the game already has a ton of content but BoTW had some great challenging DLC and ToTK would have definitely benefitted from something similar.

Yeah I'd bet on Ampere for sure, Nintendo is still gonna go with the old tech. Lovelace wouldn't do much unless they wanted to do heavy ray tracing and I don't think they do. I think they're interested in seeing what they can do artistically with raytracing but don't care enough about it to go all out.

The only thing I can guarantee about the Switch 2 is it will be on ARM and it will have DLSS. Or in though? That seems fuckin massive for a mobile chip. Yeah it'll get cut down, but there are a lot of aspects of Orin that seem like they'd be overkill for Nintendo. But then again, I think Nintendo wants to stop people from emulating their shit and making a sequel switch overkill powerful would do it

The point where the buck stops is price. I can't imagine a casual and family focused company like Nintendo would want to charge more than $400 for a system, while remaining at a profit.
