...2025 is when the Nintendo Switch 2 launches as the original Nintendo Switch Family is twilighted for the next few years. This successor will be fully backwards compatible, but Nintendo will keep the budget low price Nintendo Switches around for a few years for cheaper entries, doing price cuts where matured production cost saving allows.

The Nintendo Switch 2 would be akin to what the 3DS was to the DS, or what GBA was to GBC as far as similarities as a successor and backwards compatibility.

Nintendo switch 2, being the futuristic Hybrid console, having more processing power...

Predicting this all the way back in January 2018 was a pretty good, especially when we think of how many predicted it to come so many times in-between this prediction and its actual launch in June 2025

I think if Switch hadn't sold so well, we would have seen other hardware revisions than Lite an the slightly improved OLED. But indeed, your prediction in 2018 turned out to be the best I remember seeing.

Ei Kiinasti.

Eikä Japanisti.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.
