Yes. Yeeees. YEEEEEES!!!! Muwhahaha!!! The more the Switch declines the closer we are to Switch 2! Come on, keep falling so we can get modern hardware in 2023. DO IT! MUWHAHAHA!!!!!!!

I feel like the opposite will happen. Since this is clearly due to shortage, the fact they are selling out all stocks without barely lifting a finger almost going in year 6 is insane. I doubt Nintendo will want to launch in a market that is unsure if they will get their units or not. They are early enough in the rollout for their next gen to just decide to wait a little more before releasing it imo

And what, they are going to just sit on 5-10 mostly to completely made Switch 2 games? If they, back in 2017, were planning on releasing Switch 2 in 2023, which would line up with their usual 5-6 year life cycle model, then they probably had the launch year games for Switch 2 mapped out back in 2019 at the latest, with development starting shortly after. Those teams have been spending resources on making their games and I doubt Nintendo will want to sit on that many finished games that could be released and making them profit (which they make a lot more from than selling hardware, collectively).
