The rumours of a new Nintendo system next year keeps on swirling as you would expect. The Nintendo Switch is approaching its seventh year next year and technology moves at a rapid pace. Today, Chinese manufacturer PixArt, which has provided the SoC powering the Nintendo Switch JoyCon’s along with parts for other Nintendo home consoles said in its latest financial report that they will be busy manufacturing components for a brand new console from a Japanese company that hasn’t launched a new system in years which is set to release in early 2024. It seems fairly reasonable to assume the console mentioned is the follow up to the Nintendo Switch family of systems, though as always we will have to wait and see.
Chinese manufacturer says it’s preparing for a new Japanese games console launching early 2024
Sounds like another January announcement and March launch.
I think if a new Nintendo system is being announce a reveal would most likely be this year
The Switch was announced in october 2016
Yeah, but that’s completely ignoring what Furukawa already said prior. Nintendo’s not releasing new hardware for the remaining fiscal year. Fiscal year goes all the way until March 31st, 2024… in other words, we’re not getting a “Switch 2” next March.
Oh, so Sega’s getting back into the console business.
Yes Dreamcast 2 with Skies of Arcadia 2 launch title!
I can see them pulling the same stunt they did with the Switch an revealing it this year, releasing it in March 2024
I’m gonna say a reveal for a new console will mostly be announced after the last wave of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is done. I can rarely feel it now.
My guess is that switch 2 will come out in May 2024, with a reveal in January. With all the information we have, that makes sense. With a September Direct, we get release dates for the Peach game and Luigi’s Mansion 2 to come out February/March. Metroid Prime 4 reveal for May as Cross-Gen (but not specified until January)/ Metroid Prime 2 & 3 also announced.
I bet its Tommy Tallarico bringing bringing Tiger handhelds to his new console for a new generation.
