Let's post Nintendo Switch Pro mock-ups!

Yeah that's pretty much what I'm expecting.
OP
OP
I don't think it will look too different. I'd imagine they are going to want to utilize the current joy con instead of making changes to them. Thats assuming this is just a switch 'pro' and not a new console entirely.
No idea what'll happen beyond what you've shown. I suspect it'll look more 'premium' than just the 7" screen on an existing model.
Some thoughts:
Some thoughts:
- Same thickness in order to accommodate existing joy-cons, however...
- Changes to the joy-cons, and a phase out of the old stand-alone products (think Wii Remote +)
- Improvements in the shell/case - the original plastic felt cheap, and my 2017 model had a chip near the power button
Dear god that looks so much more comfortable.Maybe they'll release the redesigned joycons from a few years ago.
Give me this with a matte finish and I will pay heavy coin.
It's got a bit of the Vita look. I like that.
But what's best here is the dock. That's exactly what Nintendo needs to do because it will remove the whole screen scratching piece of it. I love that idea.
But I have a feeling the new Switch will look like cheap plastic like everything Nintendo does hardware wise, but I'm excited for the specs and possibilities though.
Oh no, I simply meant yeah, it's hard to make it look the most exciting at this point. And since it's Nintendo, I feel their revisions/later form factors are pretty conservative on purpose.
I still think the Gameboy Advance to the Gameboy Advance SP was like, a revelation. 😂 Much akin to the Gameboy to the Gameboy Advance.
No reason a third party cant actually make these joycons for the current switch.

Why would you post this. Man that looks amazing, the real thing will almost certainly disappoint me after seeing this.
This is basically what I expect but for there to be a bit more buffer on the sides of the screen as otherwise depending on the size of your hands and how you hold it they could cover part of the the screen and that would be really annoying.
If they redesign the effing kickstand to be usable I'll be super happy.
Yes I expect basically that form factor - the picture in OP with a few milimeters extra width on the overall device. So very similar size but a not-quite-identical chassis.

Nintendo is Nintendo...but they know not to ruin the Switch's success.
Honestly I'd be super down for that mockup in OP. Minimalized bezels go so far in making stuff feel better. That plus the OLED would make every game on Switch right now pop (for those of us who mostly play handheld) without any other changes made.

It's hard to imagine what exactly that would feel like but it's be great if they did something to improve the ergonomics. Between the weight and lack of anything to really grip onto, the Switch has always been extremely uncomfortable to use in handheld mode for me, it actually makes my hands start to fall asleep if I play for too long.
This is pretty much what i'd expect, though the matching red and blue joycons makes the revision look too similar to the top 'OG' unit.
Depending on pricing, it's possible they may go with some sort of metallic body or another material to emphasize the premiumness of the product. The color scheme with definately be different. Probably more blacks/silvers/white/grey than the fun colors in the OG Switch
I don't have a mock-up, but I hope for more robust/larger Joy-Cons with more usable (and drift-resistant) analog sticks, a proper d-pad, and make the -/+ buttons standard buttons with those symbols on them like the other face buttons. Or if they're going to keep them in those shapes, round off the edges so that they are more pleasant to press. Also, I don't even know if you really need the cartridge slot cover. That thing feels like it's going to snap off... if they keep it, make it nicer like a digital camera SD card slot with an actual hinge and not just flexible plastic.
Lol why are the first comments in most era threads so low quality?
That's not a mockup, that's a lazy comment.
I don't get it.

those joycons can't even be removed from the looks of it.
You really expect it too look much different ? I dont see it happening - this new model will probably replace the current standard model by late 2022 and not too many people have issues with the current look of the model.
