Rumors of a nintendo switchpro they are always present in the public mind, and occasionally the Big N decided to speak about this topic openly. This was the case in a recent interview, where it was made clear that the Japanese company does not intend to release new hardware in the remainder of the fiscal year.
As part of the financial results for the closing of the first fiscal quarter of the year, Shuntaro Furukawa, president of Nintendo, was questioned by Nikkei, a Japanese medium, before the possibility of seeing a new Switch model in the coming months. It was here that it was mentioned that no plans to see a Switch Pro, or any other such hardware, in the remainder of the fiscal year, that is, until March 31, 2023.
Nikkei: there will be no new Nintendo hardware this fiscal year, which ends in March 2023. Not immediately clear whether that part of the article is from Nikkei’s own reporting or what Nintendo President, who Nikkei interviewed for the story, said. https://t.co/HJVqk9Kbef

It is important to mention that although there are no plans for a model with substantial changes, such as OLED and Lite, yes we will see a special edition of the Switch. Let’s remember that this month a Switch with a design inspired by Splatoon 3but inside it will remain the same OLED that we already know.
On related topics, these are the sales of the Switch in the last quarter. Similarly, Mario Strikers: Battle League Y Nintendo Switch Sports They are a bestseller.
Editor’s Note:
Considering that more than five years have passed since the launch of the Switch, it would not be unreasonable to think, now, that next year we will see a new hardware version. We can only wait and see if the Pro does exist, or we will see a totally different model.
