I am secretly hoping they pop this out after the Switch 2 as the last Switch 1 ala the New 2DS XL.
Super Nintendo Switch abbreviated to SNS pretty much looks/sounds like SNES (for those who like to say it as a word). I'm all for it.
Time for consoles to be fun again, which I hope translates to the UI. As much as I like the lightweight/no-nonsense approach of the current one, it's just so damn boring. Conversely, it's fun turning on my 3DS and seeing the 3D animated spinning logos, themes, etc.
Anyway, getting way ahead of myself here. Time to wait some more. LOL

Shit, I'm cool with a 'Super' Switch. I think that's what majority of people were wanting. At the same time I recognize we're losing Nintendo trying to innovate with their hardware like they had been doing.
Well yeah, just like the PS5 was the next playstation model after the PS4 Pro.
All this is confirming is that the next console will still be keeping the Switch name, which is what pretty much everyone already expected.

I really hope they name it either this or Super Nintendo Switch.
We knew this in 2016 I believe. When they talked about the NX infrastructure being similar to mobile where all future consoles could play older games like smartphones.
Truly it will be a NEW Nintendo Switch. I can already hear the confusion. I already assume it will be an iterative upgrade, but I sincerely hope Nintendo has a plan for how to differentiate this from the current Switch. Or else it's gonna be a WiiU situation all over again. Or maybe it's more of a Gameboy Color situation?
Yes. David Gibson is quoting retweeting the English version of the tweet, which was just a reply to the original:

I'm on the "Team #No BC until officially confirmed" camp.
LET'S GOOOOOO
I've sent the japanese tweet to a friend who works in Japan and does japanese to english translations, waiting for him to wake up now
This honestly feels like the end form for Nintendo. There ain't no going back to console or handheld. Not that I have a fucking clue what the video game landscape is even going to look like by the time Switch 3 rolls around.
depends how much much they want to hinge their future on hardware. not to do the nintendo0med thing but 20 or so years (not a long time in the gist) that's a question mark
Unless I'm missing something, I don't think it's that. Gibson talks about another occurence, of Furukawa replying to a direct question. That's not what's in the japanese tweet.
