I hope it's just "Switch Pro"

It's not even that, it's got an LED screen rather than an OLED.

I doubt it. Next year the Switch will be 7 years old. That's firmly in "next generation" territory.

The new console should be backwards compatible (and if Nintendo have any sense at all, boost framerates for Switch games), but I wouldn't expect new games to keep coming out for the old Switch once the new one picks up a decent number of users.

Yeah but Nintendo doesn't seem interested in pushing hardware. Just being well "Nintendo"
