At Nintendo's 85th Annual General Meeting, when asked about the support plan for the new console "Nintendo Switch 2", President Shuntaro Furukawa did not give a specific timetable, but clearly expressed his hope that the console will have a life cycle comparable to the first generation Switch.

When the Switch 2 was released, the phenomenon that some of its games were priced even higher than the PS5/Xbox Series X|S platform works caused shock in the industry.Furukawa specifically pointed out that the first-generation Switch is still receiving new game support eight years after it was released, and even if the new console is released, the company is still developing works for the first-generation models.

Regarding the market cycle of Switch 2, Furukawa responded: "Switch 2 has just been launched, and it is too early to discuss the life cycle. But our goal is consistent: we hope that as many players as possible can enjoy this console for a long time, which is exactly the same as the philosophy of the first generation of Switch."

He further explained: "Switch 2 is compatible with the first-generation game lineup, and we are still developing new Switch games. It can be predicted that players will experience the first-generation Switch games through Switch 2." Furukawa emphasized with a vivid metaphor: "The first-year elementary school student when the first Switch was released has now become high school students. The longer the platform lasts, the more opportunities players will have to access their games. For Switch 2, we will continue to carefully develop each piece to strive to cover the widest user base."
