The successor to the Nintendo Switch is not expected to be a completely new concept, but a device that does more or less the same behavior as its predecessor. This is unusual for Nintendo.

The Japanese analysis agency Kantan Games predicts this. The next Nintendo console should be a hybrid device, just like the Switch, portable and also connectable to the television.
This means that the console will mainly have a more powerful chip and possibly a better screen. Analysts believe the price will rise to $400, $100 more than the Switch’s retail price. In this way, the console should perform better than the PS5 and Xbox.
For other tech companies, Kantar Games’ prediction would be obvious: Smartphones, tablets and televisions usually receive a spec update that makes them faster, more powerful and better-looking, without changing their function.

Unusual for Nintendo
However, things are different for Nintendo: the Japanese gaming company is known for trying something completely different every few years. For example, the Wii has motion control, the Nintendo DS has a second screen, and the Nintendo 3DS has a 3D screen that works without glasses.
It probably says a lot about the Switch’s success. Nintendo’s console is still going strong seven years after its introduction, so it’s no wonder that Nintendo wants to build on that success. It would also open the door to supporting older games on the new device.
