Despite growing expectations from the announcement of new hardware, Nintendo is confident the Switch still has a bright future ahead of it.
Although the Switch has just overtaken the PS4 in total sales, the Nintendo console is facing strong criticism, especially on its technical aspect which is becoming more and more obsolete. It must be said that the console is about to enter its seventh year, and several games released recently have been able to attest to its technical delay compared to other platforms, such as the latest Pokémon, much criticized for its graphics. and technical issues. Despite everything, Nintendo wanted to be reassuring: the Nintendo Switch has not yet reached the end of its life, and it still has a bright future ahead of it.
New games planned for Nintendo Switch
During a question and answer session, Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa has announced that he plans to support the Switch and continue developing games for the console in the future.. This is despite the recent decline in hardware sales. » It’s hard to imagine that console sales will continue to grow at the same rate as in the past. was able to clarify Before concluding: » However, we want to continue supporting the console by creating a high level of engagement through new game releases, but also working on a way to broaden the appeal of existing games.“.
Released in 2017, the Switch is still around the same price. A rather rare fact in the world of consoles.
So, if the president of Nintendo is to be believed, the Switch has not yet reached the end of its life. This despite various reports indicating that The Legend of Zelda Tears of The Kingdom could very well be the last major release for the platform (if we leave aside the more confidential Pikmin 4). One thing is certain: the more time passes, the closer we get to the announcement of a successor console. Hoping that the latter is more efficient, and more up to date in the technical needs of the current market.
