Always remember that 99% of the Nintendo leaks are just lies

[–] stephfinitely@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well this isn't un head of especially on Nintendo systems the gamecube and Wii said ATI on it.

[–] echo64@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not unheard of for nintendo to release a brand new earthbound game but that doesn't mean a leak around the idea is true. 99% of nitnendo leaks are made up by someone on Twitter.

99% of ~~nitnendo~~ leaks are made up by someone on Twitter.

FTFY

I mean they used to do this kind of stuff with the ATI chips from (now AMD) in the past, right? I vaguely remember seeing an ATI sticker on my GameCube or Wii

[–] brsrklf@jlai.lu 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There was definitely a red "ATI" logo on the GameCube, yes.

[–] 30021190@lemmy.cloud.aboutcher.co.uk 17 points 1 year ago

And also the Wii...

[–] Whooping_Seal@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

At least on the Wii the ATI logo isn't a sticker, its actually physically on the plastic shell similar to the wii logo on the front

I sadlt can't tell you if its printed, laser etching or some other technique

[–] IHeartBadCode@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, logo is there. From BestBuy site.

[–] Septa@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe it will be similar to the ATI branding on the Wii. Just a little grey logo in the corner.

[–] nexas_XIII@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Same with the GameCube. I'm looking at mine right now

[–] CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hopefully after developing the switch 2 chip we see them work on updating their Shield line of Android TV boxes.

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Pretty sure shield is dead

[–] CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's either dead or there's no need to update it because there isn't real competition in that space. I'm just wondering what they are going to do with this new mobile chip platform once the switch 2 is released. I doubt they only ever use it in the switch 2. I'm guessing they would want to release it (or a version of it) in some other hardware.

I mean that could be... But it could sell not like there is a lot of other options. Most are shit except the Google TV Chromecast thingy and I guess the Xiaomi one. Roku maybe? Not sur show it is right now but in any case it's not that international here for example it's not a thing but Shield is available If they had some extra that made it worth it like proper hard drive support or who knows it could sell.

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Since when?

[–] Gabu@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Good news, AMD is about to land a big contract

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Put it on the back cover, only see it if you open it up which is never.

[–] Bonehead@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

That's just a Easter egg for geeks.
