Nintendo is ALWAYS working on things that may or may not end up being the next console.
The 3DS is a completely different platform from the Switch. A hypothetical Switch 2 would be the same but more powerful.
Iirc they said they want to retain their userbase, BC and keeping the current NSO is what will do that.
Not commenting doesn't signal anything.
This 21mil forecast is for the current Switch console only. If Nintendo planned to launch a new console within 12 months from now, they would need to announce it within 6 months from now, which would make it 100% impossible for the Switch to sell even close to 20mil units in this fiscal year. No chance a new console comes before holiday 2023.
The OLED already has lower profit margins, a new console launching within a year from now would probably have to be sold at a loss with massive shortages. It's not feasible.
