Original thread here
They have also confirmed that it will not be in the June Direct.
That means that there will be an announcement between July, 2024 and March, 2025.
Please keep all questions, discussion and speculation of the next Nintendo console confined to this megathread. All threads about this topic will be removed and redirected to this thread.
Please note that nothing is verified about the next Nintendo console except for the fact that it will be announced during this fiscal year. All information about its specs, name, etc. are just speculation and/or wishful thinking.
Thank you.

They’re gonna repeat Switch’s rollout, aren’t they? Announcement October, release March.
I’m sorta doubting release for holiday 2024 if it isn’t announced in a June direct. Unless they turn around and have a July direct, I’m guessing early fiscal year 2025 (March-May)
I think it will be released within this fiscal year as well. Obviously, Nintendo won’t say that just yet. March 2025, I’m ready for you.
I know everyone talks about having “better hardware” and I actually agree.
But there are other things that I would like the Switch’s successor to improve on, like having a more charismatic interface like the Wii/Wii u/3DS had, maybe even having themes back, but what I most want is for Nintendo to improve on online aspect in general, this is something that I really think they should learn from the competition, it is very frustrating that the current Switch does not have basic functions such as chat, voice-chat, achievements system and other things that competing consoles have since 2005.
I know not everyone cares about this, but it’s really what bothers me most about the current Switch, especially in games like Splatoon 3.
really hope the next Switch is Backwards Compatible
IT’S REAL
now all you need to do is make it backwards compativle
I would expect a price cut in the June Direct. Especially before the Summer goes full throttle.
Maybe we’ll get more than 2 themes on the successor? Holding out for hope!
