A switch successor targeting the Series S would be ideal. And if it’s targeting a 2024 launch, that should be more than possible. I don’t think people realize just how far mobile processing technology has come since the mid 2010s, and the Switch was using a generation out of date graphics architecture when it launched.

If the Switch successor targets a current-for-2024 gen graphics and CPU architecture, getting Series S performance out of a handheld form factor should be achievable and desirable.

It is theoretically doable right now. The problem is the cost, and Ninty's reluctance to lose money on hardware.  It is not going to be possible to deliver Series S performance in a reasonably sized handheld, with at least 2.5 hours of battery life, for $300-$350 (or even $400), at break even or better, in 2024.
