Nintendo’s plans do not include a new Switch model soon, when it will be four years since the platform’s arrival worldwide, and two of the Lite version, as indicated by the company in the presentation of financial results.
Nintendo Switch has sold 11.6 million units during the Christmas period, an increase of 7 % over the previous year, despite supply problems due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The President, Shuntaro Furukawa, explained that sales of this hardware remain strong and that Nintendo has enough components to maintain the supply, as reported in Bloomberg.
Furukawa also indicated that the Japanese company has no plans to announce a new Switch model soon, when four years from the launch of the original Switch (March 2017), and two of the Lite version will be completed in 2021 ( September 2019).
In August, Bloomberg reported that Nintendo was working on a new Switch expected to be released this year to compete in the market with the new hardware from Sony and Microsoft.
