The key points are:
- Nintendo's president, Shuntaro Furukawa, has confirmed that the company's plan to announce the successor to the Nintendo Switch within the current fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2025, remains unchanged.
- However, it is now considered unlikely that the announcement will come before the end of 2024, as Nintendo does not want to divert attention away from the critical holiday shopping season.
- Developers have reportedly been briefed that they should not expect the new console to launch before April 2025.
In summary, Nintendo's plans to announce the Switch 2 (or whatever it may be called) have not changed, and the announcement is still expected to come within the current fiscal year, but likely not until 2025.
