The increase in production in the materials necessary to manufacture a console, raise the alarm about a new Nintendo machine in 2023.
Switch It is being a tremendous success, being one of the consoles with the best sales projection since its official launch. On each occasion that the Japanese company offers data on hardware sales, Switch continues to stand out and beat amazing marks, running as a candidate to be the best-selling console in history when its useful life ends. And this is something that Nintendo could already be starting to prepare, since the last movements of the big N would indicate that the brand’s next console would already be on the way.
This is because the cost of materials planned by Nintendo for the next course has skyrocketedas indicated in famiboards. With these data and making a comparison with previous situations, it is noted that on the occasions in which a similar expense occurred, the Japanese company was preparing to launch Nintendo Switch Lite and the second version of the hybrid console with improved battery. The most striking thing in this regard is that the material expenditure planned by Nintendo until 2023 is greater than in these two caseswhich could indicate that it would be a more powerful console than the previous ones.
This would leave us with two possible scenarios for 2023: the first would be the Nintendo Switch Pro model that has not stopped rumored since before the arrival of Nintendo Switch OLED and the other could be the successor to the current console, with which we would enter the next generation of Nintendo. The official response of Shuntaro Furukawa, president of Nintendo, when asked about it was the following: “we have a lot of raw materials, and there is also the effect of changes in accounting procedures. The treatment of assembly contractors has changed”. An elusive answer that does not provide much information about it, so anything could happen.
Nintendo Switch in the middle of its life cycle
Something that Nintendo has highlighted by active and passive is that Switch is in the middle of its life cycle, although it is a discourse that is already beginning to take too long, so it is difficult to predict when the change will take place. sorpasso towards the new generation. Nevertheless, This does not mean that Switch cannot coexist for a certain period of time with its successor.just as is happening with the rest of the platforms today.
We will have to wait to see what Nintendo’s next movements are in this regard and if in 2023 or 2024 we will witness the birth of a new generation or a new model of Nintendo Switch. What is clear is that the Japanese company is in a sweet moment, as shown by the Nintendo Direct Mini recently presented, where new proposals for the console were released.
