The current generation of the Nintendo Switch console is still posting excellent sales numbers and showing little signs of slowing down despite its obviously aging hardware. The smart move for the Japanese multinational video game company is to look forward to its next hardware release, which should be the rumored Nintendo Switch 2. Unfortunately, not only is the next Nintendo console not coming soon, it's probably not going to have backwards compatibility.
Recently, we've received a lot of new and unverified information from multiple sources regarding Nintendo's next console. Most of them point to the same conclusion, which could be a problem for those expecting to continue clearing through their Switch backlog.
This particular rumor first originated from a leaked UK government report, then it was amplified by a somewhat questionable post spotted on 4Chan. Now in a recent video YouTuber ModernVintageGamer(VGC) details how titles for the current Nintendo Switch console might be incompatible with the new and improved chips that Nintendo is planning to use for its beefed-up Switch console.
