Report: Samsung will be responsible for producing Nintendo Switch 2 chips

Soon the Nintendo Switch Console will be launched. According to a new report, Samsung is set to produce the Tegra chip using its 2nm process.

Reports from South Korea show that Samsung Fandy, Samsung’s chip production sector, will produce the Nintendo Tegra chip with a 2nm process. The chip is set to be used on the new Switch 2 console. This contract can be very profitable for Samsung, as the Nintendo Switch is expected to have high sales. Analysts expect Nintendo to launch more than 5 million units from the new console, all of which will use a chip made by Samsung.

This partnership could offset part of the decline in market share and Samsung Fundri; The decline is due to the difficulty in attracting customers for advanced processes such as the GAA. Reports indicate that Nintendo initially thought of using the TSMC’s 2 or 5nm process, but eventually chose the Samsung 2 -nanometer process. Samsung is said to have offered faster delivery time and more competitive price; This is not strange, as Samsung’s Fandy is known for its aggressive pricing strategy compared to TSMC to attract orders.
