It's been reported for a few months now that Nintendo has been not-so-secretly working on a hardware revision for the Switch, the concrete details of which remain firmly under lock and key.

Nintendo has apparently been toying with the idea of a Switch 1.5 which may include a more robust and energy-efficient screen, while it's been suggested that the new model could also feature a longer-lasting battery, stronger stand and better placement of its much-complained about USB-C port.

Given that Nintendo is still deep into figuring out what this new form factor could be, there's no guarantee it actually comes to fruition over the next year.

However, it'd be an incredible way to ensure the platform's sales momentum in a year where it's aiming to out-sell not only the Xbox One but also the PS4 worldwide.
