Another analyst has reportedly shared new information about the rumored ‘Switch 2’ system, claiming that Nintendo’s next device will have an 8-inch LCD screen and will arrive sometime in 2024.

This information was shared by Bloomberg in a new story, sourced from Omdia analyst Hiroshi Hayase, a person who conducts research based on the supply chains of “small and medium-sized screen” companies.

“The Kyoto game maker’s new device will be responsible for doubling shipments of so-called entertainment displays in 2024, Hayase said in Tokyo on Friday.”

Again, there’s no official confirmation and a Nintendo spokesperson had nothing to say about this latest report, so there aren’t necessarily any guarantees, but this is a credible source according to Bloomberg. The current OLED model of the system comes equipped with a 7-inch screen and has a resolution of 1280 x 720.

This comes after an analyst claimed earlier this month that the ‘Switch 2’ model will arrive this year at a price of $400. Last year there were also reports of Sharp supplying its LCD screens for the new console.
