Nintendo has no reasons to replace the Switch before 2023. We still have hyped games like Metroid Prime 4 and Breath of the Wild sequel with no release date yet. Sometimes I wonder what is going to happen when the BotW sequel arrives. Probably another worldwide boost to Switch sales, even if the console is going to be at the end of it's lifetime.

About the second option... Well, time machines are quite expensive.

I know there is no rational or sane reason to replace the Switch anytime soon, I can just never entirely stop worrying because Nintendo do occasionally do some incredibly stupid things. Still, I think it is highly unlikely they'll replace it before 2023 at the earliest the way it's going. 2024 would be my personal preference.

Nintendo seems to be enjoying the success. Also, they announced Splatoon 3 for 2022 on Switch, instead of saving it for a future console. That makes me think the company still see some years for Switch.

In other words, PS4 can't catch the Switch anymore. It dropped faster than I thought after the PS5 release.
