Rumors abound about the Switch’s successor, but that shouldn’t deter you from jumping into the wonderful library of exclusive games on Nintendo’s platform.

It’s been nearly seven years since the original Nintendo Switch came out. In that time, the company has sold a staggering 132 million-plus units and has become the portable home of dozens of exclusive and indie games. But we’ve also been waiting a long time for Nintendo to announce its next console, and a new one is surely around the corner.

The next console is likely to remain a hybrid home and portable console—reporting from VGC indicates this is the case, and it’s a natural progression given Nintendo’s recent trajectory. After the company has sold more than 132 million portable consoles, it’s unlikely to revert to a system that can’t leave your TV’s side. Other reports suggest the next console might have a slightly larger screen, use an LCD panel , and presumably have more powerful processors. But specs are specs.
