Nintendo has said virtually nothing about its new console, which is rumored to launch sometime in 2024 or beyond. We don’t know if it will function like the Nintendo Switch, if it will support cartridges, or if it will offer some sort of gimmick feature. But thanks to a recent investor Q&A with the company, we now know that the next console will utilize Nintendo Accounts, just like the Switch. While this doesn’t offer much information about the system itself, it does have some implications about potential features, mainly backward compatibility.
