Rumors are afloat in the gaming world, diverting our attention from the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch Pro. A reliable source, known for accurate leaks, hints at Nintendo's secret project: a VR headset. While specifics remain elusive, one intriguing twist is Google's apparent involvement.
Nash Weedle, the source of this rumor, suggests that Nintendo is experimenting with micro-LED displays for a standalone mixed-reality headset designed for home use.
These displays, provided by Google-acquired Raxium, promise cost-effectiveness and energy efficiency. Importantly, there may be no need for console tethering.
Though skepticism lingers, Weedle's accurate prediction of Metroid Dread's release lends credibility.
Nintendo has a history of pushing boundaries, notably with the 1995 Virtual Boy 3D console. More recently, they ventured into basic VR with the Nintendo Labo VR Kit.
While it may not challenge high-end VR systems, a Nintendo VR headset could carve its niche, offering immersive experiences with cherished franchises like Pokémon, Animal Crossing, and The Legend of Zelda.
Exciting times await gamers and tech enthusiasts as we await further details on this intriguing project.
