It would, if they wanted to redesign the main housing of the system, but I doubt they do. Developers can already access full clockspeed anyway, it's just a matter of playing it safe with players' consoles.
As stated from other users arround here, the switch doesnt use its fan at all, it could very well handle the cpu original clockspeed. The only downside i see is the battery life, but i guess if they have a better version of the switch already in mind, pretty sure they would include a slightly better battery.
They don't have a "better version" planned, that's a fantasy. Especially if you're talking full clockspeed and a bigger battery, might as well be a laptop with current tech. Like I said, TX2 or bust in terms of the next Switch, there's no reason for them to hinder Switch's sales. Switch's price will be down to $200 or so before Nintendo even considers a big hardware upgrade.
We know Nintendo does rapid upgrades on portables, but not on their consoles. We know Switch is the most powerful portable ever released, and there's nothing stronger out there anywhere near this price point. "Nintendo magic" isn't literal, they can't pull new tech out of their asses. Nvidia are the ones supplying the tech, and they have nothing new to show us in this form factor yet. So Nintendo consider Switch a console, not least of all because they have to for now.All i can say is lets wait and see. No one knows the absolute truth, so, lets play the waiting game
Eh, a cpu and battery upgrade arent stuff out of this world, they could perfectly find a supplier who delivers a similar battery with better duralibity than the current one, and as i quoted other people, the switch has a fan that almost doesnt use at all. Even a slightly cpu clockspeed increase would enough amd much better than the limited 1.0ghz of the quad core arm cpu. And as a example of the 3ds and the new 3ds or the ps4 and ps4 pro, both versions of the switch could easily coexist, but the better one of course would deliber better perfomance and probably better or the same battery life.
I mean, I like to dream too, but the facts are that more capacity requires a bigger battery with current tech, and increased performance correlates to increased battery drain.
Li-Ion wears out over time, so going to a new battery over an old one is always going to seem to have better capacity. Buying a new battery for your old phone would've had the same effect. Same deal with Switch, and it's not like the battery is hard to replace.
Eh nop, crazy thing is that i had budget for a low-mid range phone not so long ago, so less than a year i managed to get the budget for a new mid range phone... the low-mid range wasnt used that much nor charged frecuently or irresponsably, and the battery seemed to still be as "exactly as new", still flat, etc.
Which is why I said it wears over time, how you use it matters, but the fact that you use it at all also matters. Bending/expanding is relatively uncommon in decently well-designed batteries, regardless of wear/use.
