Nintendo Switch 2 may have full backwards compatibility with Switch, both physically and digitally.

The Switch titles may also be able to be visually enhanced.

This doesn't mean much, Nintendo denies a lot when it comes to future hardware releases. However, worth noting that Nintendo is denying the earlier reports of the Switch 2 demo (BOTW, UE5 Demo etc.)

The president of Nintendo denies reports that a next-gen Switch was shown to devs at Gamescom.

They also state the infamous dual-screen device patent was applied for knowing it would be seen by the public, and that it won't necessarily be used in a future product.

[Nintendo Rumors @NintendoRumor]

If it wasn't already assured, we now know with certainty that Nintendo's next system is going to be positioned as a "next generation Switch," thanks to internal emails in the FTC v. Microsoft case. The system has "closer alignment" with gen 8 (PS4/XBO) systems.

Rumored Nintendo Switch 2 information from the Nate The Hate podcast (regarding the systems recent private showcase)

- Matrix UE5 demo shown and looked comparable to the Series X / PS5, featured ray tracing.
- 4K 60FPS BOTW tech demo also shown.
- System uses a modified DLSS 3.5

@jdfergus I was basing that on this, but I might be misreading what they said tbf

[Nintendo Rumors @NintendoRumor]

Credible leaker Pyoro has shared a lot of information recently, to summarize:

- Nintendo Direct soon
- More info on Princess Peach game
- Remakes of a DS game and a Wii game which are "both related"
- New DK game (probably a new Mario vs. DK)
- Something F-Zero related (NSO)

Many had previously speculated that Charles Martinet may have left this role after the recent Nintendo Direct, after the reveal trailers for Wario Ware: Move It! and Super Mario Bros. Wonder both featured 'off-sounding' voices for Wario and Mario respectively.

[Nintendo Rumors @NintendoRumor]

Charles Martinet, long-time voice actor for many characters in the Super Mario series such as Mario himself, Luigi, Wario, and Walugi amongst others, will be stepping back from his role as a voice actor for Nintendo games - with these roles likely being recast.

End of an era!

VGC is suggesting development kits for #Nintendo’s next system are with key partner studios, with a launch planned H2 2024.

"#Switch2" retains the hybrid gimmick, but with an LCD, not OLED. Physical games are supported, but, crucially, backwards compatibility might not feature.

[Nintendo Rumors @NintendoRumor]

Super Mario Bros. Wonder could be deliberately more difficult than recent 2D Mario entries, more akin to a game like Super Mario Bros. 3. Testers are reportedly finding the game to be pretty difficult.

Note: This rumor is coming from Zippo, who doesn't have the best track record

A report from MoneyDJ, a wealth management company, suggested that Nintendo's next console could release around Q1 2024. This is based upon a report regarding Foxconn's production and sales outlook over the next year.

MoneyDJ was one of the first to reveal details about the NX.

Activision CEO Bobby Kotick has shared #NintendoSwitch successor info.

Following an email w/ Furukawa, he claimed the system will have a "closer alignment" to the PS4/XBO. This info was shared to convince the FTC that the Call of Duty franchise will run natively on the system.

[Nintendo Rumors @NintendoRumor]

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has seemingly suggested that Nintendo's next system will support backwards compatibility with the #NintendoSwitch, revealing the company "will update [Sparks of Hope] for the new machine."

Wording could also suggest an updated re-release, however.

Portuguese Nintendo news site Nintendo Universe, known as a reliable source of Nintendo info has claimed a #NintendoDirect will air next week. NateTheHate has also suggested the same thing.

The site is claiming it is not a Partner Showcase, as first party titles will be shown.

@kyle_hyde3 Yeah it's hard to tell because you would need to be a member to see this users previous posts. I think given they name drop NintendoPrime and NateDrake it might just be worth waiting to see what they say about it

[Nintendo Rumors @NintendoRumor]

Rumors of a Paper Mario: Thousand-Year Door remaster for Nintendo Switch are circulating. A Famiboard forum user, who says they are an investigative journalist, claims to have insider info confirming the remaster and that the game is "coming soon."
