- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I hope they follow tradition and call it the Super Switch
NewNintendo3DSwitch&Knuckles
Also featuring Dante from Devil May Cry Series.
Now with Funky Mode!

How is that tradition? It happened one time. Successor name suffixes and prefixes used: super, color, advance, mini, 64, i, 3, new, u. It could be anything.
Edit: ah no, there was also super game boy, I guess that's the only one they repeated. But that was specifically for super NES compatibility.

Super Switch
Switch 64
Switch i
New Switch
Switch U
These are all confirmed by the comment above!

Do "i", "mini" and "new" really count as new consoles? i and new were just upgrades to the same console, I believe, and I'm not sure what "Mini" was even for..
Uh, there was a GameBoy Micro, but that's the closest that comes to mind.
Oops yes I meant the micro, not mini
I mean, they were direct successors. I imagine the next console won't be something completely different than the switch, so I imagine I will be some sort of switch 2.
None of those were direct successors, though
Nah, Switch U or go home.
No u
Switch OLED
The Super Nintendo Entertainment Switch
How about the Swiitch? You get the roman numeral 2 in there and the name's similar enough to the original Switch, so customers will be confused as to whether this is a new console or an iteration of the current one. Just like the Wii U!

It's an Nvidia chip, so Switch Super.
Who am I kidding, if they followed Nvidia it'd be Switch AI.
Super Switch 4064 Ti Super Ti (one is pronounced T-I, the other is "tie")
Or Ultra Switch, as a throwback to the 64's name before it was officially announced, which also means lots of Ultra games.
SwitchU, if anything.
I don’t think they’re in a hurry to repeat the WiiU
Switch Advanced
