Nintendo Rumored To Show Next System At Gamescom
It seems like confirmation of the Switch follow-up could be coming sooner, rather than later.
You're viewing a single thread.
Doubt.
Yea, no way.
Does Gamescom even have a big livestream event?
As far as I'm aware, it's mostly meant for people who go there in person.From the article:
It is unclear if the claim of “at Gamescom” means that Nintendo will be holding a Nintendo Direct the week of the show (22nd to the 27th of August) or if the company with announce a potential Switch 2 at a Gamescom event, such as Geoff Keighley’s co-run Opening Night Live event on the 22nd of August.
The Switch was announced via a tweet in 2016, only a handful of months before the console’s release

If that was true, it would give the article some more believability. Unfortunately, the author did not fact check, even on Wikipedia. Nintendo announced that they were working on a new console exactly 2 year before it was released (https://web.archive.org/web/20161020234649/http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-03-17-nintendo-nx-is-new-hardware-with-a-brand-new-concept) and had announced the release 10.5 months before the system came out (https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/herocomplex/la-et-hc-nintendo-dates-its-successor-to-the-wii-u-the-nx-20160427-story.html ).
