Rumor: Switch Successor to Have Magnetic Joy-Con - Nintendojo

Original source (on modern site)

Will also reportedly have quite an upgraded screen!

Switch 2 or the follow-up console to the current Switch, whatever it is eventually called, has yet another spattering of rumors surrounding it. According to a post on Facebook by Chinese peripheral-maker Mobad, Nintendo's next console will sport smaller Joy-Cons that attach magnetically to the system. Although original Joy-Con will be able to connect via wireless to the console, they won't be able to attach.

What's more, the post (which has since been edited to remove any mention of Switch 2) also states that the next Switch will have a 1080p resolution screen, unlike the current models which top out at 720p. What's more, the screen is also expected to be larger. Beyond that, some of the remaining tidbits should sound familiar by now, including that the next Switch will be backwards compatible.
