Nintendo Switch 2 has 'the most advanced graphics ever in a mobile device' – Nvidia CEO hails custom chip efforts ahead of launch
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is touting the processor in the Nintendo Switch 2 ahead of the new console's launch on June 5, stating that it delivers "performance, intelligence, and beauty in the palm of your hand."He appeared in a "special edition" of Nintendo's "Creator's Voice" series. The appearance marks a rare discussion of technical specs and a rare inclusion of other partners in the discussion of Nintendo's hardware. Huang said that the new Nvidia chip "brings together three breakthroughs: the most advanced graphics ever in a mobile device, full hardware ray-tracing, high dynamic range for brighter highlights and deeper shadows, and an architecture that supports backward compatibility." Nintendo's hardware developers had already confirmed the use of DLSS, and Nvidia didn't delve too deeply into specs when discussing the chip in a blog post, focusing on RT cores and noting that the new chip offers "10x the graphics performance of the Nintendo Switch." Huang also said the Switch 2 features dedicated AI processors to "sharpen, animate, and enhance gameplay in real-time."In May, Digital Foundry reported the official specs, including eight ARM Cortex A78C cores featuring the ARMv8 64-bit instruction set, a GPU based on Nvidia's two-generation-old Ampere architecture, and a memory subsystem powered by two 6GB LPDDR5X memory modules (12GB total) operating on a 128-bit memory interface. The console also has 256GB of UFS storage and has a microSD Express card slot that supports additional storage up to 2TB. Much of the video is actually about Nvidia's part in building the original Switch and honoring Satoru Iwata, the fourth president of Nintendo, who oversaw the console's development but passed away before its Switch 2 is launching at $449.99 when it releases on Thursday (a bundle with Mario Kart World will cost $499.99 for a limited time). Pre-orders went quickly, though some brick-and-mortar stores may have stock on launch day. Follow Tom's Hardware on Google News to get our up-to-date news, analysis, and reviews in your feeds.

Nintendo Switch 2: Everything you need to know
After years of anticipation, Nintendo's Switch 2 will finally be available on Thursday. Like the original Switch, it's a game console that can be used on the go or connected to a TV, but the $700 device is also a much more tech-forward machine than its predecessor and has many key differences. A full review of the console will have to wait, as Nintendo has permitted me to play with it for only two days in total, and only under very controlled conditions. But combining that hands-on time with all the data and information the company has published, I can answer the most vital questions you may have about the new video game system. What makes Switch 2 better than the original? The original Switch was released in 2017, and technology has changed substantially since. Physically, the system is larger but just as thin, with an improved kickstand and an additional USB-C port on top for use when the system is propped up. The display is bigger, sharper, faster, brighter and more vibrant, supporting 1080p resolution and HDR colour with a variable refresh rate up to 120Hz. In person, it's a stunning screen easily on par with the highest-end handheld gaming PCs. When connected to a TV, games can display in up to 4K resolution at 60Hz, or a smoother 120Hz in lower 1080p or 1440p resolution. Nvidia has supplied a custom chip to drive all those pixels, and claims it has 10 times the graphical power of the chip in the original Switch. Switch 2 also supports Nvidia's DLSS for AI upscaling, has three times the system RAM and eight times the storage of the original. Finally, Nintendo has integrated a chat feature called GameChat into the system, so you can call friends and share your screen to show them what you're playing. Certain games support a feature called GameShare, whereby players on other Switch consoles (nearby or online) can join in and play the game being streamed.
