Nintendo Switch is undoubtedly among the most successful handheld consoles by the Japanese gaming giants, selling over 114.33 million units. This console was a revolution in the gaming industry with hybrid technology, allowing players to enjoy both home and handheld experiences. But this Nintendo console is slowly dying.

It won’t be wrong to say that Nintendo’s software is advancing at a great pace, but the only factor that’s limiting this growth is the hardware which is five years old. The backward hardware in Switch has been a huge disaster for the games released lately, as they experienced great performance issues. So, Nintendo soon needs to look for a solution.

How to solve Nintendo Switch’s performance issues?

The best way to solve the performance issues is for Nintendo to release a successor to Switch. They can either release a new console or an upgraded version of their current Switch. Nintendo has been reluctant to release a new console, as they possibly want to deliver an affordable and low-powered device. But this strategy won’t work any longer with their advanced software.

We saw this year how games like Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, Bayonetta 3, and Splatoon 3 worked. All these games did great, but fans complained about the choppy visuals and glitchy performance. The mechanics of the game were phenomenal, it showed the developers are trying to bring great advancement in games but the hardware is blocking that progress.

Nintendo might have released a successor for Switch by now, but the global pandemic and shortage of chips was a major hurdle. The Japanese giants released Switch OLED, which was nothing more than their standard Switch with an OLED screen. So, Nintendo needs a new console if they want to continue competing with PlayStation and Xbox.

When would be a perfect time to release a successor for Switch?

This year is already over and Nintendo needs to release the console next year. And the best date to unveil the successor for Switch would be May 12, 2023. On that date, the Japanese giants would also release the much-awaited game, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
