The design will remain the same and the screen will be upgraded to 1080P
To Nintendo Switch the handheld TV host in one mode, nintendo and players should feel satisfied, this model fully considered players in any places of entertainment demand, more important is the form of game consoles, won't make the nintendo into the function of Microsoft and SONY war, this area is nintendo's disadvantage. The Nintendo Switch and the success of previous generations of game consoles have shown that even though the nintendo console has limited capabilities, it can still be successful through novel gaming methods and a form suitable for the masses.
Therefore, in terms of form design, it is a reasonable guess that nintendo's next generation console will continue to maintain the status quo of TV host + handheld. Moreover, handheld devices are more conducive to promotion on the one hand, and on the other hand, even if the hardware is upgraded, it does not need to spend too much money on research and development costs.
In addition to its performance, the Switch was a disappointment for a handheld with a low resolution, 720P screen that was a staple of the device years ago. To be sure, the next generation of consoles will be upgraded to 1080P on the screen, but for the sake of cost, OLED screens will continue to be used with LCD panels.
Host mode upgrade 4K, or add HDR
This generation of Switch is 720P in handheld mode and 1080P output in mainframe mode. If the handheld screen is upgraded to 1080P, then the console mode will have to be upgraded as well. Although nintendo's next generation console is not likely to have the same performance as Microsoft and SONY's new generation console and still have smooth performance in 4K high picture quality, the ability to output 4K resolution should be a viable option, which is also in line with the current trend of video entertainment development.
In addition, the quality of the 1080P game on the Switch highlights the comfort of the graphic design and overall graphics, rather than some of the effects and texture details that require high performance. So even if you were to raise the resolution of the current nintendo game to 4K, it wouldn't require much functionality. And we don't think every game will be in native 4K, even if the console can output 4K resolution, so this upgrade shouldn't put too much pressure on nintendo.
If nintendo host to upgrade to the 4 k output, so inevitably adopt HDMI2.0 interface, so that the picture of the game, in the future we will most likely see HDR effects, even in the handheld mode, the next generation of nintendo console will open HDR mode, provided of course that is about to see the JDI panel isn't good enough, at least from the iPhone mobile phone after 7, there is no difficulty, can even support dolby horizon.
Drop the Nvidia and go with the samsung chip
What matters now is what hardware the next generation of nintendo consoles will use. The Switch uses NVIDIA's Tegra X1, which was introduced in 2015, five years after the Switch was released, and the next generation of nintendo console processors and GPU upgrades are sure to be on the CARDS.
But nintendo shouldn't be working with NVIDIA anymore, and while there's no question that the next generation of consoles will continue to use ARM processors due to compatibility issues, the point is that NVIDIA hasn't seen any new developments on ARM processors in years. In recent years, with the exception of the Shield TV Pro, which came out last year with a souped-up Tegra X1 Plus chip, NVIDIA has largely faded out of the ARM processor business, and even the Tegra brand is on the verge of oblivion.
Samsung's Exynos line of processors is relatively mature in both development and sales, with plenty of experience with third-party vendors, and the Exynos processor is relatively cheap and more generous than NVIDIA, which seems to be a more important factor for nintendo, which values cost and profitability.
