It is believed that the console was delayed to increase supplies.
The next generation Nintendo console will go on sale in March 2025, according to sources from the Japanese publication Nikkei. According to the publication, the start of sales of the new Nintendo console was delayed in order to increase inventories of devices before entering the market.
The successor to the Nintendo Switch, Nikkei claims, will receive a larger screen; other characteristics of the device are not disclosed.
Earlier, sources from a number of Western publications reported that the new Nintendo console would not be released in 2024. Journalists were unable to find out why there was a delay; Nintendo shares reacted to the rumors by falling.
Nintendo's next-gen console is expected to be powered by an Nvidia chip; its performance could be on par with the GeForce RTX 2050. The console will supposedly be able to use DLSS supersampling created by Nvidia.
Some sources believe that the new console will be backwards compatible with Switch games. There is no official information about the characteristics of the next generation Nintendo console.
