Nintendo has spoken about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 for the first time, with more details expected this fiscal year.
In a surprising turn of events, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa posted a message on X, revealing an announcement on the next Switch will is coming soon ahead of Nintendo Direct in June.
In his post on X, Furukawa wrote, “We will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year. It will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of Nintendo Switch back in March 2015.”
Those hoping to see Switch 2 during the upcoming Nintendo Direct showcase will be disappointed, as Furukawa continued to say that the event will highlight the upcoming software for the Switch in the latter half of 2024 but that “there will be no mention of the Nintendo Switch successor during that presentation.”
社長の古川です。2015年3月にNintendo Switchの存在を公表して以来9年ぶりにSwitchの後継機種に関するアナウンスを今期中に行います。また、2024年後半のSwitchソフトラインナップをお知らせするNintendo Directを6月に実施しますが、そこでは後継機種を扱いません。誤解のないようお願いいたします。
