    They won’t show it before the holiday season. It would cause some potential Switch buyers to just wait for the new one.

      Almost 7 years later you would think everyone who wants one, already got one.

      Sales are already declining. And if Switch 2 has full backward compatibly it wouldn’t at least hurt sales of games since those games will run the same but hopefully better on the new hardware.

      Without backward compatibly some people might skip games in order to save it for the new hardware

        My friend bought a new switch last week. Normal people don’t care or are watching or waiting for when a new console comes out.

          Yeah my buddy just got one last month and immediately bought both Zelda games for it.

          He just wanted to play them finally. If he’s going to wait this long to do that he could care less about a potential new system that’ll have less games.
