i think it was reported that the switch 2 will have 12GB of memory since that's what was found when the skus leaked previously. The switch CAN'T come with only 8GB, we aren't in 2017 anymore, now games are made for systems with 16, so 12 would be a manageable compromise for developers.
The first switch only has 4gb tho, shared between gpu and the rest of the system. For well optimized consoles, 8/12gb should do the trick even these days, unless you go native 4K (not upscaled 720/1080p>4k). (Even the steam deck "only" has 16gb and is not as well optimized as other consoles)
@@128KB-News well considering the switch was originally set to have 2GB of ram, and that they only upgraded it because third parties said they wouldn't port their games on it, maybe this time nintendo has learned the importance of available memory. Games are only gonna get more unoptimized so if the switch 2 only has 8gb, we won't see third party support for long
Forza 5 is rumoured to be coming to Playstation next week !! Such a shame Sony are killing their own games on PC why limit your sales I understand the reason but with what they are doing they may as well not bother putting them on PC, Can't wait for the Switch 2 next year day one purchase for me I think !!
@@128KB-News Yeah hopefully it has some great games for launch and thats what the rumours and leaks are saying right now on Twitter and gaming websites :)
@@bennettturk3206 a friend of mine who's a Sony Glazer got one and played one game (that horizon game) and he says it took him a day. My guy never touched the headset again. Like, imagine spending £500 for maybe a few hours of mediocre gameplay.
Switch 2, 8K, Sony confirmed.
16k 360fps
Half-Life 3 confirmed!
The Switch 2 probably leaked at least 10 times in the past 4 years.
At least!!
Currys have them in stock.
The OG Switch has 4gb of RAM, so the Switch 2 only having 8gb actually makes perfect sense given this is Nintendo we’re talking about
Yeah maybe!

yeah we think you're about right that 12gb seems like the sweet spot. But nintendo will do their own thing, so it could be anything!!

Day one purchase for sure. So excited for the announcement. Are you serious about Forza 5? That would be crazy!

cant wait for the switch 2 so the switch 1 plumets in value and i might buy my first gaming device in 40 years :-)
hahaha, I'll do a whip around for you ;)
Imagine paying for a VR headset that costs more than your console to play like 5 games. Seriously I *HATE* VR.
Totally with you, it feels like a mad expensive gimmick
@@128KB-News for the price of a PS5 and a PS VR headset you could get yourself a decent PC lol
It's fun for like 5 minutes.
