The Nintendo Switch is powered by NVIDIA's Maxwell architecture GPU with output resolutions up to 1080p. However, rival Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 are already capable of outputting in 4K resolution.

'The new model of the Nintendo Switch to be released in 2021 may be compatible with 4K,' reiterated Bloomberg's Takashi Mochizuki. According to a Bloomberg article, 'Several anonymous game developers testify that Nintendo has asked game developers to make titles under development compatible with 4K resolution,' Nintendo said. It has been suggested that the supported resolutions of Switch may be upgraded.

The possibility that an upgraded model of Nintendo Switch will be released in 2021 is reported by Taiwan's economic newspaper 'United Daily News' in late August 2020.
