While it may still be rumor, DigiTimes says that Nintendo will release a Pro console in Q1 of 2020.

There have been rumors floating around about a Nintendo Switch Pro version pretty much since the launch of the console. Despite that, there has really been no official word from Nintendo pointing at an upgraded console. We got the enhanced battery model, but that’s about it when it comes to added features.

The aforementioned report states that the new Switch model will be ready for mass production by the end of the first fiscal quarter of this year . They also state that the new model will have a magnesium alloy body, instead of the current plastic one. The model will also boast a stronger CPU, allowing for smoother play of some of the more complicated games.

While this is still just a rumor, it is one that I intend to keep a close eye on. The Nintendo Switch Lite also started out as just rumors, and now its here and popular! Having a pro version of the Switch is definitely on my radar, seeing as how Breath of the Wild is one of my favorite games. Also, I’m going to put a hurt on that console when Animal Crossing New Horizons comes out. So I say, the stronger the better?

What are some features that you’d like to see come the Nintendo Switch in Pro version? Let me know in the comments below!
