The successor to Nintendo Switch named Switch 2 will continue to be a hybrid console that can be played on TV and in portable mode, it will be launched without an OLED screen (it will have an LCD) and it will have cartridges/cards for physical games , according to various sources. Anonymous to VGC, where they say that the device is “likely” to hit stores in the second half of 2024. They add that there are already development studios outside the Japanese company with the development kit.

Yeah, BotW was cutting it close, while Tears of the Kingdom really is too much for the Switch. I got real tired of the framerate taking a dive every time I used Ultrahand.

I'm really surprised I haven't had any major framerate drops in TotK. I'm using my launch-day system, so as old as they get, and playing hand-held almost exclusively it's been pretty darn smooth.

For the few hours I bothered with totk I never had any lag either, also a launch switch. Maybe I didn't go in far enough, but it ran smoothly all the time.
