big if tru
In the Digital Foundry talks they talked about it. And it makes sense. The Pro was rumored to come out in 2020 or later with tech around that time. But as 2020 was a big year for Switch 1, Nintendo might have changed their direction. Switch 2 has tech that could be from that time and it would make sense, as it is similar to what a Switch Pro would actually be.
Overall its just an idea that makes sense.
I agree that this mostly makes sense, but the mouse part of the new joy cons does feel like a new console feature that they wouldn't have added for a switch pro.
Agree with you as well. Anything that enhances or adds new functionality wouldn't be part of a pro upgrade of the same. I feel like Nintendo tried desperately on the Switch 2 to bring new features, that could have been developed and thought off after they scrapped the Pro idea. So they came up with some software features like video streaming and an upgraded controller with mouse support.
