NVN designates the programming interface , short API used for the Nintendo Switch. Does the "2" already suggest the successor to the Nintendo Switch? In addition, a special driver is in the folder: NVNDLSS . This would confirm the rumors that the Nintendo Switch 2 sets DLSS technology (Source: Overgizmo).
How credible is the leak?
The Nintendo Switch will be five years old on March 3, 2022 and is a tremendous success for the Japanese Group. So it should be out of the question that Nintendo is already working on a successor. In this respect, the Leak is credible.
Whether this console is called Nintendo Switch 2 , on the other hand, is questionable. Nintendo has never continued a console with a number. Unlike this, for example, makes Sony with the PlayStation.
However, there will be definitely certainty, if Nintendo officially introduces the successor and that could take a while. The Nintendo Switch still sells outstanding and the latest model, the Nintendo Switch OLED , is only a few months old.
