Nintendo shoots down rumours of a new Switch coming out this year | Digit

It’s been 6 long years since the launch of the Nintendo Switch and it looks like we might have to wait a little bit longer to see a new console from Nintendo. The company shot down rumours that we could see a new Switch this year. Fans have been eagerly waiting for a new Switch since the original console is now a little underpowered for most modern games. Of course, Nintendo still has its staple of characters that will always sell consoles, the company needs third-party support to stay relevant in this day and age. 

New Nintendo Switch coming in 2024? 

A report on Eurogamer states that sales of the Nintendo Switch have been floundering and have dropped 22% in the past couple of years. The report also noticed that in the financial report that the company will not be looking at a new Switch this year. What happens in 2024 is up in the air, but as of right now, we’re not getting a revamped Switch so we’ll all have to make do with the current consoles as well as the new OLED model.

Other analysts have stated that Nintendo is looking at a 2024 launch for its new console. There isn’t much news regarding this but it is clear that Nintendo will have to upgrade its consoles to compete with powerhouses like the PS5 and Xbox Series X. This is the first time that a Nintendo console has been out and not seen an incremental upgrade and it could also end up being one of the best selling consoles of all time. The company has had a few missteps such as the VirtuaBoy and the Wii U but if there’s one thing Nintendo is good at is giving the fans exactly what they want.
