I think we all know that patents don’t usually mean anything and aren’t an indicator of a product actually coming to launch, but what do you all think of a potentially smaller, more portable Switch?

I can see them diverging again with a beefy next get one (aka switch 2), but then also introducing a nano switch. The only issue I think is if they are both introduced at the same time and only the switch 2 can play switch 2 games (and is backwards compatible) and the nano could only play switch 1 games, then consumers will be confused.
Will that be confusing? Nintendo released the Game Boy Micro (only plays Game Boy Advance cartridges) after the DS (DS and GBA cartridges). I don’t think too many people were confused.
To avoid confusion, Nintendo should name their next system something other than Switch 2, Switch Next, or something else with Switch in the name. Then again, I cannot understand the Xbox naming convention is a bit nonsense but no one is out rioting in the streets.
Switch 2 is a clear sign to consumers that it’s not a Switch, which is the issue they had with the WiiU. I think Nintendo will be too scared to risk a repeat of that honestly. I could see a Nano getting a name like Switch Pocket or something similar. But Switch Next is a bigger risk
The New Switch U XL
No, please no. They should stick with just one. They don’t have enough output to split into two consoles.
Sorry, the best they can do is a New Super Switch U Nano 2/3DS
