If Nintendo waits a long time for a Switch successor, what do you think will happen?

Ideally, you want to transition while your brand is still hot, not wait until its dying. You don't want to end up in a position where your next system is still a while away but your current one is running out of steam.

The damn switch hasn't even had a price cut going into 7 years and still selling like crazy. Ideally from business stand point you would wait till you need a price cut to move consoles, its still selling crazy good with no real sign of slowing down. so I see no reason they would wanna shoot themselves in the foot and release a powerful switch 2 for 350$ which will be probably be at loss, unless they wanna go for the playstation audience which makes sense since every company wants to find new ways to grow.

These things are planned out years in advance, it's not like they decide sometime next year "okay, let's make Switch 2 now."

The development of hardware and the software to go with it takes years, and there's no way they could have known years ago that their sales would still be strong by this point.
