I think Nintendo will want to channel Switch 1 buyers of the OLED model + Mariko model right into Switch 2 though. They probably want a fast and big start for Switch 2 after the debacle of Wii U and the poor start for 3DS. Switch Lite they will probably keep around for kids and budget concious shoppers, but I think having the Switch 1 in the trailer literally transform into the new Switch 2 probably tells you were Nintendo's head is at.
The other thing is even if it doesn't launch until May/June whenever, the full blown marketing blitz looks like it starts April 2nd, which is only 2 1/2 months out with the big Direct for the system + Nintendo Experience Switch 2 events starting up and those will certainly end up being all over Youtube and Instagram and all of that.
