It has only made the need for a new Nintendo console more urgent. Now, with the Switch successor coming soon, a new rumor has appeared suggesting just how much more technologically up-to-date the console is going to be. It has been discovered that Nintendo has a job opening for an Electro-Mechanical Engineer. Among the requirements are a couple of mentions of having knowledge of the power behind PCB designs. One of them specifically mentions "experience with high speed signaling and power delivery on PCB designs that contain elements such as PCIE, DDR4, MIPI, SD/SD Express". The mention of SD Express, a new upcoming standard line of microSD cards from Samsung, has led some to speculate that the next Nintendo hardware will support it. The theory is that Nintendo wants a higher transfer speed for microSD cards. The current line's average transfer speed is 60MB per second, and the highest you can currently get is the 150MB per second from a 1.5TB SanDisk SDXC card. Samsung is claiming that SD Express cards will be able to reach transfer speeds as high as 800MB per second, something that Nintendo's new console will really need as video games continue to get larger in size.
