“The momentum of the Nintendo Switch hasn’t stopped,” President Shuntaro Furukawa told reporters. His comments come a day after Nintendo reported a 60% drop in its fiscal first half profit, largely because of declining sales of the Switch, which now is in its eighth year, as well as Switch games.

You don't have to take great pains to preserve your Switch to ensure that you can still play your favorite games on it years and years from now. Nintendo has revealed in its earnings report that the upcoming successor to the Switch will have backwards compatibility and will be able to run games made for the current console.

The company says that Nintendo Switch Online will make its way to the technically still-unannounced console, too.
