Ubisoft mentioned in some recent interview that Nintendo recommended they don’t release Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope on Switch, and hold it for the next version of console. It’s better to release one game from each series on a console.
Which suggests that next 3D Mario, and Mario Kart would be on next console, but then they released two Xenoblade and two Zelda on one console, so don’t know how strict they are about all this.
Thing is, you never know with Nintendo, we may call the direct “sunset slate”, but we have 3 first party games in this year. Zelda, Pikmin and 2D Mario. Doesn’t look like Nintendo is slowing down, but let’s see.
Technically BoTW was released on the Wii U
don’t forget the Microsoft document
Nintendo’s cloud gaming service is only available on the Nintendo Switch device and [redacted].

first news page about it I found on the quickMicrosoft knows that Nintendo is working on something, and has cloud gaming services working there already.
There’s no doubt next console version is in R&D, question is, when are they going to release it.
With all the rumours of Switch Pro, even from some respectable insiders, it seems there was plan of Switch Pro but it was cancelled. So, they are definitely working on next console, but when and how they release them is still a question.
Personally, I am excited for next iteration, and afraid that Nintendo might step away from Switch design for some other gimmick.
is there supposed to be a link to something here? i’m not seeing it, could be the app
Try clicking the title again, it’s stupid but every so often the link just brings you to this page and when you select it again it brings you to a new site showing what you are trying to see

I have a strong feeling that a switch 2 will be backwards compatible. If it’s not then that’s a big f up
Wasn’t the Wii U backwards compatible as well? That and the name didn’t seem to help it at all.
I knew it this whole time. Nintendo purposely delayed Metroid Prime 4 to make it a launch title for their next console to force people to buy that one instead.

Switch should have been refreshed a few years ago. I’m not holding my breath Nintendo does it now.
I have a theory that the intended to do it in 2020-/2021, but COVID chip shortages and such threw a wrench into their plans, they already had their hands on the OLED panels they planned to use for them, but couldn’t get whatever they needed for the rest of the upgrade, so they came out with the OLED to use them up because they decided by the time things normalized and they could ramp up production on the refresh it would’ve been to late in the switch lifecycle to be worth it since they were already kind of pushing it to begin with.
Nintendo will probably start talking about its new hardware over the summer, or by autumn at the latest.
(If my information is accurate) Didn’t Nintendo say on an investor call that they wouldn’t be announcing any new hardware until at least Q1 2024? So, by fiscal year that would be April of 2024 correct?
