Another Nintendo Switch leak is making rounds again. This time it reveals about the console's online features and UI among others.
Nintendo Switch the upcoming next generation of the console of Nintendo will be released this March after the months of heaps of rumors and leaks last year. Physically, the Nintendo Switch looks like another impressive device from Nintendo, however, we have yet to dig deeper into the hardware. Fortunately, a latest Nintendo Switch leak discloses some of the hardware we can look forward to seeing in the upcoming console and see how they differ from what the rumors said before.
The Nintendo Switch leak originated from a Reddit post, which reveals the UI of the hybrid console. The UI displayed how the screen would appear if players suspend a game. It appears as though the players will be able to access a few other menus even if the game is suspended. In addition, according to the leak, when in handheld mode, the Nintendo Switch will have an unlock screen like a smartphone to prevent accidental waking.
Moreover, as per leak, the Nintendo Switch features a Quick Menu. Press and hold the HOME Button for at least one second to display the Quick Settings screen on top of all other screens, including the HOME Menu and any applications. Unlike the 3DS, the active software will not be suspended when this menu is invoked. The Switch's keyboard will feature predictive text such as those on iOS and Android devices. There are also two dev kit devices in the Nintendo Switch, the SDEV, and EDEV. The SDEV will feature built-in ports but without built-in battery. On the other hand, EDEV will resemble the retail product exactly but is black color.
For its internal features, Nintendo is expanding its online network and offers a library called Network Extension or NEX in the Nintendo Switch. There will be Matchmaking feature that matches players for multiplayer games. In addition, there will be Ranking where scores will be uploaded so users can get the relative rankings. There is also an option to mute the device once headphones are removed. Moreover, when a game or app is deleted, the icon will remain in the Home menu and its save data will also remain.
