New evidence has surfaced indicating that the next iteration of the popular gaming console, Nintendo Switch 2, may hit the market earlier than anticipated. According to a report from Chinese site MoneyDJ, which revealed that a company called Hongzhun is currently manufacturing metal cases for the Nintendo Switch 2, it is possible that the console will be released as soon as April 2024. This report is further supported by documents presented in a Microsoft court case. The documents suggest that Microsoft closely monitors the performance of its Xbox console against PlayStation as they were both released simultaneously. However, due to the three-year head start of the original Switch, Nintendo is expected to introduce its successor in 2024, while PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S are positioned differently in their console life cycles. As the Nintendo Switch approaches its seven-year anniversary, it is highly anticipated that the release of a new Nintendo console is just around the corner. Nintendo has previously dismissed the idea of launching a successor in the 23/24 fiscal year, which indicates that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be released sometime after April 2024, in the first quarter of the following financial year. The buzz around a Nintendo Switch sequel has been gaining momentum recently, fueled by various leaks. Sharp is rumored to be involved in manufacturing screens for the new console, and reports suggest that a European developer already has access to a dev-kit. These developments make upcoming Nintendo Direct conferences even more exciting, as fans eagerly await an official unveiling. As for the games expected to be available for the Nintendo Switch 2, the lack of footage suggests that Metroid Prime 4 and a new 3D Mario game could be among the flagship titles at launch. In the meantime, Nintendo is preparing to release its final set of games for the existing Switch, including Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Super Mario RPG, and Pikmin 4. The latter will make its debut on July 21, offering exciting new gameplay features, such as a dog companion for transporting Pikmin and demolishing obstacles.
