Japanese video game maker Nintendo’s chief says its Switch console sales are still going strong, while he promised that a successor is coming.

Nintendo hasn’t announced its Switch successor yet, but we do know one thing for sure: it will be able to play current Switch games and have carryover for your Nintendo Switch Online services and account. The news was announced during Nintendo’s midyear policy briefing, with further information promised “at a later date.”

“On October 24, 2024, after certain platforms had taken down his unlawful streams as a result of Nintendo’s enforcement actions, he sent Nintendo a letter boasting that he has ‘a thousand burner channels’ to stream from and [he] ‘can do this all day,’” Nintendo says in its lawsuit.

The next Nintendo console, dubbed "Switch 2" will feature backwards compatibility with Switch games confirms Nintendo's president.

Nintendo has sued a streamer that it says has streamed gameplays of at least 10 different titles before they officially became available.

Jesse Keighin liked to stream Nintendo Switch games online before they were officially released and then gloat about it right in Nintendo’s face, according to a new lawsuit filed by the Mario maker in Colorado District Court earlier this week.
