"We have no plans to launch a new Nintendo Switch model in 2020," president Shuntaro Furukawa told a briefing in Tokyo.
The original Switch console, a hybrid that can be used for handheld play or hooked up to a screen at home, has become a huge global seller. But its sales are still solid with powerful software titles. In December, the Kyoto-based firm behind Super Mario and Pokemon rolled out the flagship Switch model in China via Tencent to further boost its global reach.
The absence of a console launch would not hurt Nintendo much thanks to its hit software titles, he added.
