Nintendo Stock Falls After Reports of Switch 2 Delay Until 2025

Nintendo's stock dropped by 5.84% in Japan after a report indicated a delay in the launch of the Switch 2. Bloomberg stated that the next version of the gaming console might be delayed until early 2025, despite initial plans for a release this year. Analysts had previously anticipated the release of a new Switch console in the second half of this year. Nintendo's current stock surge is partly attributed to investors' expectations for a new console. The company recently increased its forecast for Switch sales for the current fiscal year. If the Switch 2's release is postponed to early 2025, it would miss the crucial holiday season in December.
