Let’s hope they call it the Switch U in homage to that great system that was called the Wii U……BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Push R Truth]

I kinda hope they just say "f it" and call it the SuperSwitch

Here we go again

Nintendo have been reportedly releasing a switch pro since the switch came out.

I can see them releasing a more updated version (even though they have with the OLED version already.) but it may be too soon for a brand new console as the switch is still doing well, I do expect them to be working on a new console though. (like sony & microsoft have been working on developing their next consoles.)

I just hope it's backwards compatible.

not in this financial year

As someone who's suspected the next console isn't coming until roughly late 2024, the recent announcements don't surprise me. The momentum of the Switch is definitely winding down, but its still doing quite well and another 12 months means millions more of various Switch models sold; especially likely given the likely evergreen success to come from stuff like Tears of the Kingdom. Between that and some low key releases (last of the notable GC/Wii/Wii U ports?), its not hard to imagine the system being carried for another year before summer 2024 really starts seeing the Switch 2 marketing/hype kick in.

Be nice if they could keep up the current offering of classic games rather than starting from scratch again for no reason other than laziness and contempt of customers.

I kind of suspect they might if only in service of 1), the subscription model and having to effectively re-sell people on the existing lineup, and 2), the fact that with the glacial rate they're releasing GBA games it'd take them like four years to get everything decent on the console up. Also kind of think that they might be planning to eventually do Gamecube and Wii online subscriptions and that's why they pulled the shit they did with 3D All-Stars.

This. I’m gonna be pretty f***ing choked if it isn’t backwards compatible

[tirtefaa]

Here's hoping they make a new Mario game, Legend of Zelda game, Kirby game, and Metroid game. Long overdue.

[Cyno]

Gamerant and other clickbait sites of its ilk have been predicting Switch successors being revealed since at least 2020.

I'll believe it when I see it.

The exciting possibility here: new 3D Mario game.

[Push R Truth]

Console Maker plans to make next generation console every couple of years. More News at 11.

[Rumble McSkirmish]

We'll know for sure a new Nintendo console is on the way once the codename for the system is "leaked" (IE: Gamecube was codenamed Dolphin, Wii was codenamed Revolution, Switch was codenamed NX and so on.)

[dirtyoldman]

Just hope the eshop can be carried across, and with a bigger memory storage.

Switch 2 rumors come up at least once every 2 weeks and 99% of the time it's just speculation or when a game comes out that has framerate issues and everyone goes "A switch 2 would fix this!".

[Non Banjoble Tokens]

Someday, someone is going finally remake the Odyssey.
