Doug Bowser , president of Nintendo of America , was recently asked about a potential successor to the Nintendo Switch — and while he managed to avoid giving a direct answer, his response left some clues for fans. When a potential investor asked Bowser about Nintendo 's upcoming console , he quickly turned his attention to the Switch 's success and hinted that Nintendo plans to build on that success with a few surprises. As Bowser proclaimed , "surprising" its users is always a priority for their company.
"I'd have to be careful about what I personally would like to see (in a new Switch). But what I can share is that one of the reasons why even entering its seventh year we feel very confident that the Nintendo Switch can have a strong performance in the years to come is that it's still really this unique device that you can play in a variety of ways, at home, on the go," Bowser. "One of the things we're always looking at is how can we surprise and delight. How can we introduce new unique ways to play. That's always in our minds."
Bowser 's statement didn't come as a surprise, as he's a veteran in the world of PR. However, his words suggest that Nintendo may be planning more than just an improved Switch model - it looks like their next big thing could come with some unexpected features! After all, we never know what Nintendo has up its sleeve - it always seems to have a trick or two to shock us!
