Rumors say that there will be a Switch 1 Direct in February. If that's true, I think Nintendo really intends to stick with the Switch 1 at least until the first half of the year, still making efforts to make people buy it. That's different from "save your money until the Switch 2 get released". Another thing is that the Switch 2 Direct will be on April. I think that releasing the Switch 2 less than 4 months after a Direct is rushing up things. So combining everything I said, I see Nintendo activelly promoting the Switch 1 until June/July and releasing the Switch 2 in August/September. I see games being released in both Switch 1 and Switch 2 for a while so the Switch 1 will still have a place during 2025 holidays

There will be a Pokemon Presents in February, maybe Nintendo releases their Direct a week before the Presents?

I see July/August making the most sense for a Switch 2 launch. And Nintendo said that Switch will continue to receive 1st party software until Mar 31 2025. After that looks like the rest will be on Switch 2.
