Nintendo Switch Pro Reportedly Surfaces in NVIDIA Leak

The recently leaked NVIDIA DLSS source code appears to contain several references to an upcoming Nintendo Switch product with files such as "nvndlss.cpp", "nvn_dlss.cpp", and "nvn_dlss_backend.h" listed which reputable leaker @kopite7kimi believes belongs to an upcoming Nintendo Switch model with a new SoC. The files are all found within a folder titled NVN2 which is likely referring to the successor of the NVN graphics API written by NVIDIA for the original Nintendo Switch.

These files allegedly contain references to an 8 nm T239 chip that looks extremely likely to be designated for the Nintendo Switch Pro based on Ampere with ray tracing support and DLSS 2.2 according to @NWPlayer123. This supports previous rumors that pointed to a Nintendo Switch Pro featuring a new NVIDIA processor with DLSS 2.0 support.

progsteNah, phones suck for gaming.
Maybe I'm biased because my primary console is my PC and I use the switch as a secondary/portable platform.
Agree, gaming on a phone is daft, unless its while you're sat having a crap on the bog.

SkullFoxWell... if you want to compete with proper consoles you must have a better system. playing the switch on a 60 inch 4k tv is horrible.
If what they want is to compete with mobile gaming than its fine like it is.... but so is my phone....
Well.... if you want to compete with the AAA gaming space, you can buy one of the spunk gargle wee wee consoles that are already on the market.
the switch looks fine on my 65" 4k TV.

I mean if you want DA BEST GWAPICS EVAR you should only be looking at PC. The switch isnt competing against mobile games (WTF how did you come to that conclusion) just because mario's trousers are not rendered in 8k.
