A question for those claiming that revealing the Switch 2 this year won’t affect Switch sales: what upside is there for Nintendo to announce before the end of the year?

To stifle PS5/Series sales? Not likely.

To give Nintendo fans a treat? Doesn’t seem like good motivation for a company.

I just can’t see what the purpose of announcing now would be unless you absolutely think Nintendo is launching on March 3rd to replicate the Switch 1 timeline.

I don't think there's any point doing it this year now since we're already into mid November but I gave some reasons for why it could benefit Nintendo in the first half of the thread.

I don't think so either, but Furukawa is the one that keeps answering that a unveil this year wouldn't impact Switch 1, so that's for whatever reason something he keeps on repeating. I don't get why they just don't say it will be next year before the end of the fiscal year. 

On the manufacturing side though, it does look like something is starting.
