My question is the dock an eGPU?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Unlikely, Nintendo probably isn't bothered to boost the graphics beyond the switch 2's onboard GPU. Nintendo doesn't really care about graphics so I'd be surprised if it had an eGPU.

Could make an interesting pricier addon for down the line. Like the release version is just a dock but later on they release an egpu dock that you have to buy separately.

That would complicate things in a pretty non console way, especially counter to Nintendo that hasn't tried to match competitor console performance since the GameCube.

N64 expansion pak

The current Switch still selling as much as it does proves that performance doesn't really matter.

Almost certainly not

It ought to have been, considering how much games struggle on the first switch lately. This will have the same problem otherwise, 2-3 years into its lifecycle it will be begging for death while the PS5/XSX are still chugging along.

Considering what the SteamDeck can provide already...Not really

If anything they put some better upscaling into it.
