Nintendo Switch Successor Coming In 2024: Report
Nintendo has been quite evasive about the future of its hardware, frequently declining to provide specifics when pressed. When questioned earlier this summer if the Switch, which was released in 2017, was nearing the end of its life cycle, president Shuntaro Furukawa focused on the lifespan of its software rather than implying it would be replaced by a different system.
“Never before in the history of hardware has software sold at such a rapid pace,” he remarked. “Like last year’s Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and this year’s The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom; Nintendo Switch titles sold more than 10 million units in the first three days of their release.”
Despite selling over 125 million units, the Switch install base has slowed recently. The hardware has also struggled to keep up with recent releases such as Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Pokémon Scarlet and Violet; however, 2023’s The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom shown that the current Switch can still provide a GOTY-worthy blockbuster with stunning visuals and solid performance.
What Are The Chances Of Switch Pro Coming Out In 2024?
VGC’s proposed release date corresponds to a Nikkei story from earlier this year, indicating a similar schedule based on Nintendo’s current negotiations with component suppliers. In addition, Nintendo previously stated during a May earnings call that the firm did not anticipate releasing any significant new hardware before the end of its fiscal year in April 2024.
Despite the company’s tight security, insiders tell VGC that Nintendo is working on a system with “an LCD screen, rather than the more premium OLED, to bring down costs,” and that “will also accept physical games via a cartridge slot,” VGC writes. According to sources, the proposed new console will be backward compatible with Switch titles, which would be a huge advantage to anyone who has spent hundreds of dollars on their present Switch game collections. Nintendo did not react immediately to Kotaku’s requests for comment.
Based on the information provided, this wave of next-generation Nintendo rumours somewhat differs from what fans have been anticipating thus far. Bloomberg reported in 2021 that Nintendo had already built 4K Switch Pro development kits (Nintendo publicly declared these “[false] claims”) and sent them to select developers, making the thought of purchasing a hardware update with a poorer LCD screen vexing.
