The game industry gathered a bunch of analysts and key players in the industry to discuss their predictions for the year, and one of the interviewees was Dr. Serkan Toto, from Kantan Games. He believes Nintendo will release a sequel to the Nintendo Switch later this year, though he expects the system to be an iteration rather than a full-on revolution. dr. Toto believes the price of the Switch 2 will be around $400. Here’s what he had to say:
Predictions for 2024
“Switch 2” will come and will cost $400
The time has finally come for a successor to the Switch, although I can say that the “Pro” model actually existed and that certain developers were already working with the development kit. I believe the next hardware will drop by $400 next year. There’s a good chance the games will cost even more: $70. The next system is also likely to be an iteration rather than a revolution. Nintendo might add some things to the device, but it will be similar to the current Switch. And since there’s Pokémon, and Pokémon is tied to handheld gaming, there’s no way Nintendo is ditching the portability feature for its next big thing.
