Nintendo Switch Reportedly Getting Smaller, Cheaper Model This Fall
Meanwhile, a more powerful and meaty "next-generation" version that will come packing a major redesign is no longer coming this year, but is now further off. Again, at least this is what Nikkei is reporting. However, it's unclear if Nikkei is claiming the enhanced Switch model we've previously heard about is delayed or something else.
Anyway, according to the report, Nintendo is trying out a few things with the next-gen model, including numerous operating system changes.
The report also claims that Nintendo's "Quality of Life" initiative spearheaded by the late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, has been canned. Apparently, a prototype of the project, an actual device, was in the works and helped improve sleep quality, but then was dropped near completion because it's not a "Nintendo-esque product." In other words, it doesn't fit their branding. However, apparently some employees aren't exactly pleased with cancellation, suggesting it may have caused some internal issues.
Of course, all reports should be taken with a grain of salt, even though Nikkei has an established record of dishing out reliable scoops. However, its history of reporting more or less is cancelled out with potential translation errors. There's currently some debate about the translation of the report and what it implies, which means you should probably reserve an additional grain of salt just to be safe.
