I haven't seen anything official, but rumors are suggesting Hall Effect joysticks.

Nintendo playing against type on that one then. They tend to go for the cheapest worst option.

Well the warranty repairs and replacements certainly weren't free. Hall effect may be the cheapest option. Especially at their manufacturing scale.

Any word on the screen? Would be sad if it wasn't OLED but it wouldn't surprise me if they wanted to cut cost for the base model.

It's actually just leftover 3DS screens.

Stereoscopic 3D would be awesome. I loved it on the 3DS.

TOTK makes me wish 3D TVs caught on.

I mean the latest version of the Switch 1 went OLED. It’d be weird if v2 downgraded from that.

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 years ago

V2 switch was LCD just like V1 with no physically obvious changes. Only the OLED model was OLED
