One thing for sure, first Switch revision is already overdue. DS/DS lite - 67 weeks 3DS/3DS XL - 74 weeks GBA/GBA SP - 99 weeks Average - 80 weeks Switch/(today) - 98 weeks It looks even better when you stack all Nintendo hardware by release dates, starting from GB pocket (1996). On average we've seen new system/revision every 62 weeks. Currently the last hardware released from Nintendo was New 2DS XL and it's been 79 weeks since the release.

3ds tanked out the gate and needed it. DS started slowing like crazy and needed it. I can't remember about GBA, but Switch clearly is doing great so they probably don't have the same pressure.

GBA was more to address the back light issue as the screen was criticized for being too dark at times.
