TalkBack / Re: Nintendo To Announce Switch Successor In Current Fiscal Year, Direct Next Month
« Last post by Ian Sane on Yesterday at 01:04:39 PM »Interesting that they would just casually mention this in a shareholder's meeting. This pretty much means a 2025 Switch 2. I'm both excited and nervous. With the Switch Nintendo finally had good third party support again for the first time in 20 years. But do they know why? Is the Switch a happy accident or perfect execution of a good plan? With Nintendo you never know. Most of us are hoping for a Switch 2 but Nintendo might double down on Labo instead or something like that. They're very unpredictable.
Though you would think that this announcement of an announcement could hurt Switch system sales. Obviously you have to announce these things with some time before the launch but you don't want to do it too early. And this isn't the old days where an announcement like this is largely unknown to the general public beyond hardcore enthusiasts. This is on social media. You can assume that the average consumer will be aware of this when they're Christmas shopping this year.
