i watched nintendo switch event but i didnt hear them. english isnt my native language so i guess i missed them...
id like to know whats the gpu, cpu power(hz and core), resolution (pad and on tv)
thanks

edit: also how much internal ram, vram and hdd please

Confirmed specs, I'll add those that are confirmed later :
GPU : confirmed to be nvidia custom tegra chip, early devkit had a maxwell chip, unconfirmed if the released model will contain maxwell or pascal chip though. Rumored to be 256 cores.
RAM : At least 4gb according to a twitter source
Internal memory : 32GB
External memory : up to 256gb microsd card
bluetooth : unknown
wifi : 5ghz ac
Display: 6.2'' 720p capacitive touch screen IPS. TV mode at full hd 1080p
The Switch itself appears to have a built in fan. It's unknown whether the fan is only used when docked
The dock provides passive cooling, and may or may not provide extra power (As in electricity, not GPU power).
The leaked parents show that each joycon has an extra CPU. It's unclear whether this is only used for wireless and motion control, or if multiplayer games will be able to use it for extra processing power for each player.
The leaked parents also show an NFC reader in one (Not both) of the joycons. This would provide Amiibo support.

Well umm it has A screen... is not 1080 or 4K, i think less than 7 inches, battery life is 2-6 hours depends on what you using it for. (Treat it like a smartphone, bighter screen light less battery) And umm... Is not much to say since nintdendo forgot to RELEASE THAT INFORMATION. :glare:

I'm waiting for them to just admit is a modified Nvidia shield tablet, I mean if it is, is fine, but SAY SOMETHING NINTENDO :wtf:

My bad, has Nintendo ever prided themselves on specs. No they just release games and you think they are fun or not.
theyve been prided for their specs once, in 90's... but still, id still like to know the specs even if they arent that high

~7 in. and 4k sounds like murder for my eyeballs anyways D:
yeah, under 20inch, you see no difference between 4k and 1080p
You forget is also a console. Connected to TV it has 1080P, Sure the portable screen wouldn't need or have 4K but I didn't forget is marketed as a console as well as a mobile device. :P

They are only used for accessories as far as we know so it won't make a difference. 3.0+ is only useful for storage devices and there is nothing about the switch supporting USB storage so it is irrelevant

My point was almost nothing usb nowadays is released as 2.0. Sure a few products buy 3.0 is far more widespread and useful.

Of course it would be better to have 3.0 but I highly doubt nintendo are even breaking even selling the switch so, low. The tech inside those joy con isn't cheap like and the nvidia tegra chip isn't any cheap slouch either.

You sir are a comedian. I can't recall a console being sold at profit at launch (according to the manufacturer).
