According to here:

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/sources-nintendo-switch-2-targets-2024-with-next-gen-console/

Switch 2 will be out in the second half of 2024. LCD rather than OLED screen (for which I couldn't give a damn) but also no confirmation of backwards compatibility which would be a huge draw for most current Switch users.

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. there'll still be swathes of folks using their current switch consoles mid next year, (I only upgraded to an OLED last summer!) they'll really have to watch out as to not fragment their userbase into two console markets.

Will it just be a Switch with updated hardware? (Half reminds me of the 'New' 3DS) or will there be a new gameplay gimmick?

Oopse, didn't see a dedicated thread. Posted in the general news thread. https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120921192/#Comment_120921192

I only got the switch at Christmas. Happens every time, I buy the current gen and a new one comes out.
