Think it's embarrassing that a big page like gamespot tries to trash talk a game. Here's the latest trailer and some gameplay, would really like to know where the frame drops happens? Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zw47_q9wbBE&t=2s Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=310PF8ctRTM
@wolfpup7:Stop commenting my posts please, I don't like you, I don't got any interest to talk to you what so ever! And meaby you shouldn't comment on every post, like every single one, seriously dude, what's wrong whit you?
You have actually commented the last like 24 posts or something anyone posted about anything on just this single article. Just write one post of you're own and be satisfied.
And seriously dude try to post a reliable source on whatever you want to say, I posted several links above that really is what I based my assumptions on, I think for my self, it's that simple and I'm happy to share what I find.
People can read them and they can make their own assumption, some will agree with me some will not. You don't really do this, you just think people should take your word for it.
For example, ok you think they use the tegra x1 and that it's underclocked, can you provide a link to a statement or a patent from either nvidia or nintendo that would indicates this? The only real source I seen random blog posts from emily roggers (ArcadeGirl64) or Laura Kate dale:
@Zombie8814: I see how you think but I think that will not turn out to well basically because they will just not get the same budget. Right now they put in a lot of effort into the games because those games will move console sales. So they will make a profit not only on the game sold but also on consoles sold. We seen this happened whit Segas games, that would probably be a lot more polished if they would still be making consoles. Sega still make good games. But think they would have been a lot better today if they would have stayed in the console race.
@wolfpup7: Why are you just jumping between different articles trying to trash talk the Nintendo Switch? And I understand that you are an xbox fan as you have been naming that console a lot in you're previous posts and that is great, if you love the xbox. Talk about it, recommend some console exclusives or something. Personally I have considered the xbox but will go ps4 bacuase I like the heavy rain series, that's it. But I will also go for the switch because I like the transformability as it seems to work well as a home console and as a portable one.
So I would appreciate if you didn't just follow me around and spout shit on basically any comment I make, basically just say the opposite of what I say instead of proving a point whit prof or whatever. If I say the grass is grean you would say it was blue and so on. There is not point really talking to you because I will just say it, you are to snowed in on a single system.
But anyway, not that you will ever accept this but my simple reason to think it will use pascal are based on the best facts we have at the moment. See this articel, it's the official statement from Nvidia. Notice how it reads, "NVIDIA GPU based on the same architecture as the world’s top-performing GeForce gaming graphics cards": https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2016/10/20/nintendo-switch/
Their top performing graphic card are the gtx cards and they basically all use Pascal. See here for you're self: https://www.geforce.co.uk/hardware/10series/laptops/#desktop
And I can see why leaks about Maxwell is poping up, because journalists have likely digged up the first generation developmentboards from some companies trash can or something like that. And they where probably used before the hardware for the Nintendo Switch was done and that was likely the Jetson X1 because that was the only thing Nvidia basically had at that point. Here's a link about the Jetson X1, notice how basically every single piece of information here is exactly equal to basically every single rumor about the Swith: http://www.nvidia.com/object/jetson-tx1-dev-kit.html
But yeah, my guess is Nvidia and Nintendo will follow exactly the same pattern as the shield pattern and there the shield tablets have been released shortly after the new tegra chip and whit the newest chip implemented. For example:
Tegra K1 released 2014: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegra#Tegra_K1
Nvidia shield K1 released 2015: http://www.gsmarena.com/nvidia_shield_k1-7832.php
The only reason that they would ever go whit a Maxwell chip would be if they where doing some really crazy modifies on it like trying to run double Maxwell chips, added extra cuda cores or heavily overclocket it witch might also be the case as they have basically said that it's heavily customized.
Well my guess is that it will. Cooperation between Nintendo and Nvidia is pretty big after all. And I also think it's extremely likely it will use pascal or even some variant of the upcomming xavier. Pascal would be most likely or some custom version of it as nvidia themselves said in a statement that the switch will be build upon the same architecture as their top performing video cards and most of their lates graphic cards like the 1080 are using pascal. Think also most rumors are based on the Jetson development board witch is likely what Switch developers got before nvidia and nintendo had any working version of the Nintendo Switch.
My guess is also that they done some sort of overclocking on it or pushed 2 tegras in it as it seems to use active cooling.
But yeah that is just my qualified quess, pretty asome console either way. Remember how many times I just wished that I could bring the Wii U whit me and show friends games like Xenoblade Chronicles X and all the other cool stuff I had on it. Really like that I will be able to in this generation.
Also hope other companies like Sony pick up on the cartridges eventually. Anyway would be nice to get rid of all that installation time, patching etc. Remember one game that took like a day to even start up because it needed to be installed, patched 4 or 5 times whit shunks of 10GB-50GB of data, run a system update, install trophy, connect to ps online account until I even could start it. Was hitting my head on the table towards the end. :)
Anyway I'm pretty hyped that home consoles might be going back to cartridges and think the Switch is a nice step in the right direction. And yeah hope no one gets offended, I like the playstation (never owned an xbox but heard good things about that to), I also really love the heavy rain series and hope we get a lot more games like that.
But yeah as a gamer I still have wishes for the future.
@wolfpup7: Well if you think no installation time, scalable storage medium and faster iops is a disadvantage, then yes, switch is really at a disadvantage. But yeah I will not waste more time as I have other things to do. Wish you a good life, take care.
