If they keep guessing there's a cheaper Switch in development, they'll get the timeframe right sooner or later.

If it means a better CPU/GPU that can dock into TV mode. I won't even use portable mode most of the time, and if I do, I doubt the screen will be smaller than a 3DS'.

It will be a cheaper version, possibly handheld only. Pokemon is probably one of the main reasons for it, similar to what they did with the 2DS releasing alongside XY.

>"I'm a poorfag and Nintendo will HAVE to make me a smaller, cheaper, shitter Switch"
Except the Switch isn't the 3DS, it's outselling PS4 in Japan andd Nintendo will not release a "cheaper" version, when the world as it stands are forking over the cash to buy it as-is. The main complaint is the screen and the guts and if they better both them, it's certainly going to reflect that in the price point. Adapt or die, bitch.

Not while Nintendo still consider it one of these anon and not a handheld (because in case you missed it, they amalgamated both their home and portable hardware divisions AND software divisions about 4 years ago. They've fully invested in the portable home console idea and you deluding yourself into thinking you're getting a dockless Switch on the western market is laughable.

Exactly. Tossers here forget how many pairs of Joy-Cons have been sold, why would they suddenly make all them incompatible (and piss their customer base off when they suddenly won't fit their new upgraded Switch) when they could keep it the same size and keep good customer relations.

>selling well means there is no reason for a cheaper version
Are you some kind of moron? Cheaper versions will always open the door to more sales than a pro model. Nintendo handhelds have always sold generally better than their consoles, one of the main reasons being cheap price. I see little reason for a pro model, Nintendo's never been about specs and their Switch games look and run fine already.

But it's not a handheld anon. That screengrab I posted came from last year's End Of Financial Year statement from Nintendo. To them it's a home console you can carry around, not a handheld that plugs into your telly, no matter how much you insist that's what it is.
Or just ignore the objective truth, but don't spack out here like a retard when it's confirmed to be neither smaller, handheld-only or cheaper.

If they go for making the controller not able to be detached I feel they could still do a similar form factor but add extra battery life with something in the space of a Joycon AA battery pack grip.

I'm waiting for a better Switch, not forking over shekels for the Gen 1 version and considering how trash the first two Pokemon versions are in comparison to their final versions I'm willing to wait

The cost of doing so would absolutely drive the price of the Switch up. There's a reason they take standard sizes anon - it's cheaper to buy in bulk, than get custom sizes made in bulk.

You probably wouldn't get one. There is a large nearly 1 inch total (left to right or top and bottom combined) bezel on the screen which could be shrunk down or nearly removed without touching the screen size.

Also, if they did and you don't want that, guess who is not a target for the product? I don't want a plane because I hate flying. Doesn't mean they shouldn't make planes for anyone, you imbecile.
