The beam of rumors announces that the next Nintendo console will arrive in 2024, although the company has still not expressed itself on this subject, normal.

The word to Shuntaro Furukawa, President of Nintendo

“We are not focusing on one particular technology at the moment, we are researching a variety of new technologies,” Furukawa explains. However, I think the most important thing for our company is not to seek new technologies at all costs, but rather to think about how they can lead to new revolutions in the act of playing itself. And to pursue the idea is that if we are convinced that the integration of a particular technology can offer players an innovative and surprising experience, then we focus on it more, also investing when necessary. Nintendo has been investing part of its R&D budget for 4 years in the DLSS artificial intelligence process signed by nVidia).
