Nintendo Switch successor could launch next year
Don't look now, but the Nintendo Switch is more than six years old.
That's relevant because, in the world of video games, that usually means it's about time for Nintendo to release a new console. According to a new report from Video Games Chronicle, Nintendo's follow-up to the Switch could launch in the second half of 2024, seven-and-a-half years after the Switch launched in March 2017.

Not much else is known about the device at the moment, aside from the fact that apparently it can play games in handheld mode like the Switch and will take physical game cartridges, also like the Switch.
Another point of interest from VGC's report is that it might launch with a lower-tech LCD screen instead of the nicer OLED display recently seen on the latest Switch model. One major thing we don't know is whether or not the new console will be able to play Switch games.
The only thing that's for certain is that Nintendo doesn't seem to be rushing the long-awaited successor to the Switch. According to the mothership itself, the Switch has sold 125 million units, which is hilariously 112 million units more than its predecessor, the Wii U, sold.
