Nintendo Switch 2 and the possibility of 2025
Beyond the “set” date of 2025, Nikkei stated in its report that Nintendo Switch 2 should still be a hybrid platform, but with a larger screen (6.2 inches). The date is not definitive, as the titles ready for launch and possible unforeseen events in the production of the platform may affect the day one variations. Various sources also reported to VGC that the first quarter of next year is the period communicated by the Kyoto Colossus to the various publishers. Third-party companies were apparently notified of the delay, apparently blamed on the desire for “stronger” first-party software for the console. A delay, this, which caused a drop of 8.8% to the Big N on the Tokyo stock exchange before stabilizing at 5.8%.
