So we would hazard a guess and say a next-gen Switch would sit around that price point, especially if it does indeed make use of an OLED display. A further report from a leaker with a history of credible information also suggests that a 2024 release date is being targeted by Nintendo.Īs for price, the Nintendo Switch OLED comes in at $349 / £309 / AU$539. A job listing for a marketing intern at Nintendo notes that the June to August period could be a particularly busy period - suggesting there could be a major marketing campaign happening at the time.

However, a new analyst report has gone against the grain and indicated that a release in March or April 2024 could be on the cards as this would help Nintendo counter the current sales momentum of the PS5.Ī new rumor claims that a late Summer launch could be possible.

The majority of reports suggest that a launch in 2024 is being targeted, but sources with 'knowledge of Nintendo's next-gen console plans' (via VGC) suggest Nintendo is planning for a release date in the second half of next year. We take that to be referring to the Nintendo Switch 2. The same publication then reported that sources from a CMOS sensor provider, which has Nintendo as a customer, noted that a new 'Japanese game console' is due to launch in early 2024. A release in the first quarter of 2024 was given some weight by a report from Chinese investment site MoneyDJ, which when outlining the production outlook at Hongzhun, a metal cases manufacturer and subsidiary of Hon Hai Technology Group, expects the company to benefit from the launch of the Switch 2, presumably by manufacturing parts of the console.
