In the U.S. Federal Trade CommissionLawsuit alleging Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard would create a market monopolyMany internal documents and communications revealed that Microsoft had intended to acquire Japanese game companies in the past to expand its Xbox Game Pass service market advantage, and also revealed that Nintendo's next game consoleThere will be performance comparable to PlayStation 4 or Xbox One.
When Microsoft announced the acquisition, correspondence between Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick and Nintendo President Shuntaro Tanikawa revealed that the two sides discussed whether the next-generation Nintendo game console could run the "Call of Duty" series, revealing that Nintendo's next game console would have performance comparable to the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One.
However, the letter discussion did not mention the specific name of the next-generation Nintendo game console, so it is uncertain whether it is the previously rumored Nintendo Switch Pro.
However, a performance comparison with the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One shows that even if Nintendo improves the performance of its next-generation game console, its main focus will still be on attracting players with the essence of the game, rather than prioritizing performance upgrades.
Nintendo's current gaming market strategy prioritizes performance as merely one of the necessary upgrades for console upgrades. This explains why the Nintendo Switch, despite its performance barely surpassing that of a current smartphone, has managed to amass a large player base through its compelling gameplay experience.
Even if the next generation of Nintendo's game console still cannot match the performance of competing products from Microsoft and Sony, the current market already has many image enhancement technologies and artificial intelligence applications, which are expected to be combined with Nintendo's creative ideas to produce a better gaming experience.
As for whether Nintendo will continue to cooperate with NVIDIA on the next generation of game consoles, AMD has launched a large number of games designed for handheld game consoles this year.Ryzen Z1 series processors, plus IntelPreviously, it also intended to enter the game handheld market, which means that the next generation of Nintendo game consoles will have more choices in processor specifications, and what decision Nintendo will ultimately make is obviously a topic of concern to many people.
