Wow, so get this, the Nintendo Switch 2 is barely out, and someone’s already poking around its insides. Seriously! The folks over at ProModding did their thing—cracking open this shiny new console to peek at its guts. I think it was just launched yesterday? Or maybe today? Time blurs when you’re excited about gaming tech, right?
Anyway, so they start by undoing those sneaky screws at the bottom and behind the kickstand. You know, like dismantling a LEGO set but with way more at stake. Wait—do kids still play with LEGO? Or is it all digital now? So, yeah, with screws and those weird clips gone, the back just pops off. Magic. Well, not really, but close enough if you aren’t techy.
Loads of metal shielding inside, like it’s armored for battle or something, and these guys just go right at it—screws flying everywhere—pulling off the antennae without a care. Meanwhile, I’m just pondering how they know which screws go where. My screwdriver skills max out at IKEA furniture.
The cooler and battery are popped out next, and then—whoosh! Out comes the motherboard. They pry and poke, all to reveal this fancy Nvidia chip labeled GMLX30-A1. I swear these numbers and letters mean something to someone, somewhere, but my brain just hears “new shiny tech stuff.”
Pictures are there too, for those who, like me, need visuals to keep up. I swear, looking at the images, the chip looks like any other tech piece, but apparently, it’s as special as a unicorn in tech land or something.
If you’re itching to see each little circuit (trust me, there’s quite a bit of that microscopic action happening), you’re in for a nerdy treat. But seriously, unless you’re some tech wizard, maybe hold off opening your gadget since that’s bound to void warranties faster than leaving your phone in the pool.
Did I mention Nintendo’s play here? They’ve got this rulebook that’s all “don’t mess with our toys or else!” Makes me wonder—has anyone actually faced the wrath of a bricked console? Sounds spookier than my last Halloween.
So, before the official curtain rises tomorrow—I forget the date—just sit back and let the YouTubers do the intensive tech surgery. Oh, and don’t forget to catch more tech wonders by following Tom’s Hardware on Google News, if you’re into that kind of thing. I heard clicking ‘follow’ is like catching the sunrise on a perfect day—just a suggestion, no extra charge.
And there we are, floating down this little narrative stream while a Switch 2 teardown happened. Hope it made sense. Or maybe just fun enough to read with some coffee on a lazy Sunday. Cheers!
