The Nintendo Switch is already six years old at this point and so far the only hardware upgrade was a version with an OLED display. An insider believes that the current generation will be getting another upgrade - but it is not what fans expect.
We have heard numerous rumors over the years regarding the successor to the current generation Nintendo Switch. There has been speculation that Nintendo plans to release a Switch Pro, while others think that it would be a bigger upgrade to the "Switch 2".
Jeff Grubb, a highly reliable Nintendo Insider, revealed in a podcast that the Switch may be getting a mid-generation update, but no eventual successor. Grubb has amassed a huge following on social media for his insider knowledge of unannounced and in-development games. The insider correctly predicted the week of most Nintendo Direct presentations and some of the featured games.
On the most recent episode of the Kinda Funny Daily podcast, Grubb revealed that the next update to the best-selling console will not be a Pro or next-generation version. He adds that while the next Switch version will be getting a hardware update, it won't be one that merits being called a Pro or Next-Gen version.
