Nintendo Switch 2 Leak Reveals Prototype Components

A recent leak has given us our first look at the Nintendo Switch 2’s prototype components, revealing a larger form factor, an eight-inch LCD, and new Joycons connecting via magnetic rails. The leak, which appears to be genuine, was followed up by a video from Xiao Ning Zi, who compared the new model to the OLED model, showcasing its larger size.

Technical Specifications

The Switch 2 is expected to have twin USB-C ports, a Micro-SD card slot, and support for cartridges. The mainboard, which has been revealed without any chips mounted, gives us an idea of the architecture within. The device will have 12GB of RAM, with a 128-bit memory interface offering up to 102GB/s of bandwidth.

The Controversy Surrounding the SoC

The Switch 2’s SoC, known as the T239 processor, has been a topic of controversy. While some believe it may be using an 8nm process node, others think it could be using a more efficient 4nm or 6nm node. The truth is, we don’t know, and it’s possible that Nintendo has made a deal with Samsung for an 8nm process.

What We Can Confirm

* The Switch 2 will have an eight-inch LCD and a larger form factor
* The device will have twin USB-C ports and a Micro-SD card slot
* The mainboard reveals 12GB of RAM and a 128-bit memory interface
* The SoC is still a topic of controversy, with multiple process nodes possible

While we don’t know all the details about the Switch 2, one thing is clear: Nintendo knows what it’s doing, and the company has a history of creating successful consoles with less-than-ideal tech.
