Jeff Grubb: Whatever's next for Nintendo may not be a 'Switch Pro' or 'Switch 2', it may be something in-between to continue the Switch generation

Yeah, I know. Since that's an old one with almost none of it's members still posting here, I think making a new OT will be better for Era.
Unless this means an option for the Switch generation continue and having a quiet leave instead of what Sony does, which is dropping the support as fast as they could and making them buying the next PS, then it's a positive thing.
Otherwise, if they really want to keep Switch around without going for the next project, then it's a shot in the foot. Shame and everything.

There aren't any available chips from Nvidia in-between the X1+ and what was rumored/leaked that even can be used, so I'm not sure what you mean by "old ass HW".
Switch TV. Best guess I could think of is some sort of dock that supports the other Switch models but comes with a significant storage and power upgrade. Some games can only run in docked mode or via the cloud when portable. Some games are flexible enough to run both. Sell the dock alone for ~$100-150. Sell the bundle for $399 for new owners. Give all Switch models a $50 price cut.
There was / is a rumour for every possible permutation of the next Switch - which in turn makes every single one of these rumours a total waste of time.
Like throwing a six sided dice and then predicting "it'll be somewhere between a 1 and a 6, probably a 3 but could be a 4" oh and also remember "plans change so we might be looking at a 1 or 2 situation".

A better Switch that continues the switch generation is a switch pro. A new model that plays software the switch doesn't is a new generation. This is true even if some software still supports the switch.
People keep trying to push for a dock only version and it doesn't make sense. The Switch Lite and how it gets destroyed by the normal models show people largely don't want a Switch that doesn't have the FULL capabilities of a handheld or a console. Also Nintendo isn't going to do any cloud based gaming. If they were, they would've built NSO that way
He doesn't know anything but fairly logical conservative Nintendo wouldn't rock the boat of a good thing, maximise profits with a nothing tweak and milk it to death.
Switch 64 - Double the storage space.

The Switch Pro or whatever sounded pretty convincingly real, and I guess a year or two after where we'd think it would have come in the Pro would be a halfassed inbetween product that Nintendo would put out instead of developing something new. Prolly gonna go w/ dude talking out of his ass though.
Like how Pokémon legends, diamond remake and violet were all within 12 months???
To be fair that's The Pokemon Company, they do whatever they want, Nintendo just publishes
I'm thinking of it more as an attachment like you purchase the new and improved dock which has boosted power, storage, and perhaps other features such as 4K or VR. You can dock your lite/og/oled in it and play an enhanced version of some games as well as exclusive content. $399 model for first time Switch owners who don't already own the main unit/handheld component. Again based solely on what Jeff is speculating. Also, the Switch currently offers Cloud-only games. Something that extends the Switch's lifespan and continues current software sales while still being this weird in between he is talking about.
that's really not going to work. boosting power how? the usb on the switch doesn't have enough bandwidth to support an external gpu and memory and storage
Yeah I think Grubb has indications there is new hardware but he is absolutely clueless as to what it is.
That said, he seems most definitive that this new device will work with the existing Switch ecosystem and to carry over existing users
This is pretty much what Nintendo has been saying for years but people continue to second guess them "because Nintendo"

It's done/ready. I'm waiting on the clearance from any staff member before posting it.
I don't know why his logic is maintaining the same ecosystem = not a full successor
It sounds more like he's falling into the assumption that Nintendo drops BC with every new system, which is exhausting to hear and constantly dispel
by his logic, the Series and PS5 aren't successors either. I'd like to see him make that argument
