 Hey everyone, how's it going? I have a great video for you today. We'll be talking about some sources I actually have on Information on the switch pro and I actually have quite a lot Surprisingly, I'll talk about where these sources vaguely are from and stuff that some stuff I'm not really gonna tell you I have a whole set of notes here because I don't want anyone to get fired and anyone getting in Trouble but I'll explain why I'm coming forward with this information now and I've actually had it for oh I'd say probably over a month at this point And before I do that, I want to remind you of a new giveaway. We have going on for the month of March I realized this video is releasing on the last day of February But we're wrapping up that that last giveaway So our new giveaway is actually gonna be for a copy of monster hunter rise And then two other winners are gonna get $20 Nintendo switch each have gift cards playstation network cards Xbox live cards Whatever essentially a digital card were 20 bucks for any of the major Platforms out there. So there'll be three total winners for the month of March a link to enter will be down in the Description and I wish all of you guys luck on that and congratulations to whoever because I don't know who won at the time We're recording this our last giveaway for February. All right Let's get into this. So I have two sources They're from completely different places and completely different companies, they are not related to each other whatsoever one of those sources is from manufacturing a gay The people that are physically putting together switch units And then the other person is from a retail marketing department For a major retailer, but I'm gonna leave which retailer it is completely undisclosed I'm not gonna refer to these people as Male or female or anything in between because I am going to try to keep what I know about these people to an absolute minimum The big thing in me vetting these is I don't want to go into the exact Ways I vetted them because I don't want to give any hints to the companies About who these people are because obviously they are breaking their own rules at the companies to say anything to anyone You might go why me why Nintendo Prime? I don't know why I Tried asking both of these sources that same question and they essentially just said they like my channel That's it. They didn't really give me any other information So that's what I have to work on when it comes to why they chose me to talk to as for How I am able to know information that give me is correct well, they gave me information and a lot of things Including the last Nintendo Direct some of the things that were going to be in that Nintendo Direct not everything But I knew some things. I also knew what was going to happen with Pokemon shining pearl and Brilliant diamond, whatever they're called. I was actually told that information quite some time ago It wasn't told about legends. So they don't know everything. But the point is I was given Literal information that has now been proven to be correct I don't like to make myself the source of things because I realized well technically I'm just a messenger right now from them to you I am where you are hearing this information first making me the internet source for this information And I really take that stuff to heart I don't think I've ever been the source of anything directly in the past So I'm gonna throw out here that what I'm about to tell you I still consider it to be a rumor until Nintendo announces and says anything Everything should be a rumor no matter how much I might trust these sources And they're proven track record to me behind the scenes that being said you guys are here because you want to know What the hell is going on for four minutes in a what the hell is going on? So let's let's just jump into it I'll have a tie-and-stamp as well that would have jumped to this So you don't have to go through all the intro mumbo jump. All right so The switch pro and by the way, they actually gave me So other possible names that Nintendo is considering for the device But I'm not gonna touch on those names because I feel like if I mention the names are considering It could point the companies to potentially where the leaks are coming from so I'm not gonna put the names out there I appreciate they told me they said I could share I am gonna protect them and not share names So for now switch pro it's currently in production not just dev units So yeah dev units obviously that's no secret We know dev units are out there from other leakers and other sources But we're not talking about dev units for about final retail units are currently in production There are two manufacturing lines that are literally doing nothing at Nintendo but making switch pros Every other manufacturing line they have is making current switches switch lights all that stuff red box switch Nintendo does not want to launch the switch pro until it has close to 10 million Units ready to go in warehouses to avoid shortages that they have seen themselves a PlayStation 5 Xbox Series X and even themself last year in fact the switch shortages last year is what pushed Nintendo to want to build up Enough stock of the system before launch rather than going in with the typical couple million and ramping up production as demand increases They feel like demand for the switch pro is apparently going to be super high out the gate and that they'll sell at least 10 million Units not necessarily right away, but you know that that they figured that they're gonna sell at least 10 million You know no worry about production once they see where demand is that after that? They can't currently have more than two lines Making the units because of chip shortages and this is something we already know exists out there Everyone's having chip shortages. This is why we can't get enough PlayStation 5 and Xbox series X's and all that out there Why we can't get all the new latest and greatest PC components out there because there's there's a worldwide silicon shortage Everyone's being impacted by this switch was impacted by it last year. So Yeah, that is a thing and that makes it so Nintendo can't actually ramp up production Haster words currently at that being said they did not give me any information On what chip is being used inside the system other than saying it is a new chip It could be new in that it's just a Smaller even more shrunk down version of Tegra X1. That's able to be overclocked with the same cooling solution All the way up to other rumors and reports out there. I did not have DLSS 2.0 I did not have 4k talk to me They didn't really go too much into tech specs, which I know everyone wants but it's a new chip So it could be everything from just a shrunk down Tegra X1 that's overclocked all the way to you know The rumors that are out there that this is like something new with tensor cores or you know DLSS and 4k output Possible. I don't have any information to refute any of those reports The screens are being manufactured by a completely different company than the current switches now the current switchers We'll be in Japan display and a couple others That's not it. We do know that Nintendo does have a public contract with in OLED display But none of those displays actually exist in any devices they sell now So I think it's kind of a safe assumption that it's probably an OLED display which can do everything all the way down to mini LED displays even Much lower power draw better better colors more accurate blacks all that jazz and you can do Screens all the way to the edge and it's just newer technology that's more energy efficient and Produces better image quality will make a lot of sense to switch to it if the price is right, of course So whatever gonna be a new screen that actually is like a really old rumor That's one of the first things we actually heard about switch pro is that we'll have new screens. So there you go Just reconfirming I suppose double upping You know, whatever the old rumors Nintendo wants to launch align the switch pro with a proper software Not necessarily Exclusives people are worried about exclusives for the pro But just in terms of games that can tangibly encourage users to consider upgrading So this kind of aligns. I think with a lot of people thought processes breath of the wild to Splatoon 3 You know Pokemon legends games that are going to be on the current switches today But maybe are just higher frame rate higher resolution on the other platforms Nintendo is has a goal to push current switch momentum as far as it can go leading into release a New strategy for Nintendo according to one of the sources That is based on their history of using new tech to reinvigorate sales So typically what Nintendo does is they bring in a new version of a system I'm even a more powerful version when sales are starting to go this way Nintendo actually is trying to do the opposite this time and Peek switch to sales like this and then release the pro and have that just take the peak even higher That is Nintendo's goal whether or not they achieve it. We don't know But I mean you could argue they're on track for it at least for the first half of this year We'll see people are probably wanting to know when is it going to come out? There's no exact time frame at this at this point. Obviously we can look at game releases and try to figure it out The neither of these sources are sure because Nintendo internally apparently has not actually picked an exact date yet But could be anywhere from this year 2022 sometime in the next 18 months This thing is going to be on the market is my best estimate based on what they were talking to me about Nintendo absolutely Will not mention a switch pro nor will they say anything new is coming soon? Because they're gonna try to keep momentum going as strong as it can again This kind of reaffirms what before they want switched to peak and they want to release it at that peak Which is a completely different strategy. That's more like a PlayStation strategy really Beyond that there will be an extremely short announcement to release period Could be as little as one or two months after the system is announced that are derived So literally they can announce it tomorrow. It's here by April like that's that's kind of what it was sort of framed to me As it's going to be a really rapid announcement to release because when they announce it, they're ready to go Basically, they're they're ready to get this thing out there. They don't feel they need a six-month run up In fact, that would make a lot of sense That would actually really kill switch sales and they don't want to ruin momentum So if you're gonna have a temporary momentum stopper, it's because everyone's saving up money to just buy, you know Millions and millions of these systems at launch So that is what I have for you Nothing too groundbreaking I would say but it is very interesting to encapsulate all this information together and kind of paint the picture Nintendo is sort of setting up here For switch assuming again that these sources are Correct, I am still gonna consider all this information to be rumors even though I'm the source even though I'm confident in these sources I Have never done this This is a first and so when all this stuff proves to be wrong which I'm some of it I guess can't ever be proved to be wrong, but When some of it's proved to be wrong people are gonna bring back and say I'm horrible and don't trust me and that's fine I'm not sure if I 100% trust this information But I want to bring it to you because I feel like I have enough evidence to not like not not just sit on this info and Not give it to you guys After I sat on another info and didn't give it to you guys and then they were right So I'm just I'm gonna throw it out there see what happens We're all on this switch pro journey together those of us that are waiting for an upgraded switch I know not everyone even wants an upgraded switch people are afraid of the upgraded switch know To answer your question. I know what you're thinking Do you did you hear anything about improved joy con? Did it fix drift? I have not heard anything about that. I did ask Never got a response. So it is what it is.
