Usually we here at Netto's Game Room do not report on rumors unless there is at least some solid base to the story, and today is one of those rare cases.
Today images and specs for the upcoming "Switch 2" appeared on Reddit. The post details possible hardware specs, and mentions that the new Joy Cons will be magnetic, while the console itself will be 8" with a LCD screen. The specs also call out for a built in microphone, and 256GB of Flash memory.
It has been previously speculated that the Switch 2 will support 4K when docked.
While the original post can be read here, for your convenience here is the information provided by Reddit user MisterSheeple. You can also read the original post for additional images and images of the "prototype" CAD model.
