Such a transition might take a while with the vanilla model selling the way it is. How could they come up with a Switch 2 while not cannibalizing the older system's sales is what gets me wandering.

I might it would depend on how big of a leap the graphics would be. I did upgrade the ps4 to the pro when it came out for the 4k, and I might do the same for the Switch.

Honestly, and you have permission for thinking me crazy, I think the ideal situation would be to keep Switch 1 supported all the way through until Switch 3, and maintain a sort of economy vs high-end tier as often as possible. Having those two tiers - economy vs pricy - will maximize the number of customers and hardware income levels. That way newer people and people who need the top tier console will shell out a couple hundred or two-fifty extra will bankroll Nintendo while the lower tier continues to sell like crack-cocaine expanding the userbase.
The beauty of duel-support is cannibalization becomes a non-issue, because both Switch 1 and Switch 2 sales = Switch sales.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
MY Switch is from Launch so I need a new reason to get a new Switch so I can start playing 2 player Pac Man VS.
I would get it day 1 personally. My launch Switch has served me well, and even the joycons it came with are drift free. But I would love a performance boost.

Maybe I exaggerated a bit since at the moment is still working in some way but..
Card reader is not working anymore so I cannot play any cart-based game I own or planned to buy. Also, I cannot connect to eShop in any way (tried with different users and several WiFi access-points) and so I'm unable to download digital games. Lastly, sometimes I find the system frozen after resuming a game from the dock.
It's a March 2017 Switch, ok, but I always handled it carefully, it never fallen to the ground nor it never hit on anything. Aesthetically it's in perfect condition, it stayed at home for the 90% of the time.
Last month I contacted the repairing center available in my country but they requested me 150€ to repair the console XD
I said them "hey, with another 50€ I could buy a new one, are you kidding me?"
.. and now I'm stuck, can only play digital games already installed to the system.
For this reason I'm waiting to see if a Pro is real or not before buying a new one.
Most of the best FPS and resolution upgrades would be for third-party games. I have a PS4 Pro, so that would be useless to me.
The Pro would kind of have to be like the Game Boy Color. A platform that's included in the sales figures of the older model, and a lot of new features and a lot of unique software (namely first-party). If it's more like the DSi or New 3DS, I have little interest.
Lifetime Sales Predictions
Switch: 151 million (was 73, then 96, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million)
PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 57 million (was 60 million, then 67 million)
PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)
3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)
