If there weren't so many things to put into the game like mons and moves and characters, I would say optimization would be more to blame for the higher-ups.

Oh no doubt they shoot themselves with every new Pokémon or version, but they seriously need to double their staff and work on game QA.
 
A Switch 2 seems like the future and while this is probably a lost cause, I would love to see them refresh some old series with it. Pokémon, Mario Party, Mario Kart, etc., etc. have all become pretty stale for me and while I doubt we will see it, I'd love to see some changes along the way. Combine the next Pokémon with Pokémon GO 2, Bring something to Mario Party that adds more than a board game and the same mini games (maybe add in other Mario games you own? Own Kart? Well now a racing mini game is available and stuff like that.)
 
Read from Kotaku:

Altec Lansing’s press release announcing a GameShark AI successor thing contains this sentence seemingly (and casually) revealing that the Switch 2 might be out in September.

In a follow-up comment provided to Digital Trends, Altec Lansing said that Nintendo has not yet picked a specific month for the Switch 2's release, but added that it has a tentative launch window of “Fall 2024.” Weirdly, Altec Lansing didn’t deny the existence of the console or backtrack on the reveal that it might launch this year.

The official launch is planned to coincide with the Nintendo Switch 2 in September 2024.

Update 01/11/2024 at 1:50 p.m. EST: Digital Trends received a second statement from Altec Lansing and AI Shark, the company backtracked again, saying the Fall 2024 window too wasn’t official and added that Nintendo has yet to “officially” announce any Switch 2 launch plans.
 
Read from Nintendolife:

Well, a new GDC 2024 'State of the Game Industry' report has shared new data from its recent survey - revealing 8 percent of respondents (aka game developers) are currently working on a game project for the "Switch successor".

GDC surveyed over 3,000 developers to get this percentage, and another 18 percent of developers said they were currently working on a game for the Nintendo Switch (as in the original hybrid system). It's worth noting the identities of these developers were not revealed.

One other question in the same GDC survey asked developers which platform they were most interested in right now. 32 percent of developers picked the Switch's successor, while 25 percent responded with the Switch as their choice.

It's no surprise developers are already interested in making games for a Switch successor, given the popularity of Nintendo's current hybrid platform.

Keep in mind this is just a sample and not necessarily reflective of the entire industry. There are likely even more developers who could already be working on projects for future Nintendo hardware. This survey doesn't necessarily mean developers have access to new development kits, either.

Long as its PS4 pro powerful, people can do a lot with it.

Yes ideally it should be at least in that power range or at least in between PS4 and PS4 Pro.
 
I heard that announcing the next console won't be until next year.......

Has anyone heard anything about when this will be announced?
 
The rumor is it isnt getting announced until the end of the year.
