Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve based on the official name announced by Nintendo for their next major gaming console (the successor to the Nintendo Switch). The announcement must come from an official Nintendo source, such as a press release, Nintendo Direct, or official social media channels.

When adding answers, please ensure that your answer is one specific unique name. For example:

• Nintendo Switch 2 ✅

• Has a number in the name 🚫

• Switch Attach ✅

• A name that has previously been rumored 🚫

For the purposes of this market, the word "Nintendo" is ignored. For example, "Switch Attach" and "Nintendo Switch Attach" are identical. Answers that differ only by the word "Nintendo" will be deemed duplicated and invalidated. If the name is "Switch 2", that would resolve in favor of "Nintendo Switch 2". If the name is "Nintendo Swiitch", that would resolve in favor of "Swiitch".

Spelled-out numbers and numerals are also considered identical. If the name is "Nintendo Switch Two", that will resolve in favor of "Nintendo Switch 2".

The close date is provisional and may be extended if the correct resolution is not known by market close.

Considerations

• Nintendo has historically used varied naming conventions for their consoles, from sequential numbering (NES, SNES) to completely new names (Wii, Switch)

• The company sometimes uses working titles during development that differ from the final product name (e.g., "Revolution" became "Wii")

• Trademark filings may appear before the official announcement but may not reflect the final product name

• Update 2024-28-12 (PST): - Symbols are not considered equivalents to words. For example, “Switch Plus” is not the same as “Switch +” and will resolve as distinct answers. (AI summary of creator comment)

• Update 2024-29-12 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): - "Nintendo Super Switch" resolves to "Super Nintendo Switch"

  • "Nintendo Switch Super" resolves to Other (or a new option)
