Nintendo Switch julkaistiin maaliskuussa 2017, ja laite myy edelleen erittäin hyvin. Tämä lienee syynä siihen, miksi iso N ei pidä kiirettä seuraajakonsolin saattamisessa markkinoille. AP Newsille asiasta puhui Pohjois-Amerikan Nintendon pomo Doug Bowser.
"As we enter the seventh year for the Nintendo Switch, sales are still strong. I think we still have a very very strong lineup coming. As Mr. Furukawa (Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa) said recently, we're entering uncharted territory with the platform. It's exciting to see that demand is still there. So nothing to announce on any future console or device, but we are still feeling very bullish about Nintendo Switch."
Switchin odotetaan myyvän hyvin vielä ainakin muutaman vuoden ajan. Toisin sanoen sitä Nintendon seuraavaa konsolia jouduttaneen odottamaan vielä tovi jos toinenkin.
"We feel very confident that the Switch can have a strong performance over the next few years is that it is still truly that unique device that you can play in a variety of ways, at home, on the go."
