If it does exist, though, don’t expect it to be released anytime soon.</p> <p>During the company’s latest financial results briefing today, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa said there were “no plans” to launch a new Switch model in 2020.</p> <blockquote> <p><em>Regarding Nintendo Switch, we believe that it is important to continue to communicate the appeal of both Nintendo Switch systems and expand the installed base. Please note that we have no plans to launch a new Nintendo Switch model during 2020.</em></p> </blockquote> <p>As explained by Furukawa, Nintendo will instead focus on the appeal of its existing line of Switch systems – this includes the original model and the Lite model, which was launched in September last year.</p> <p>Earlier today, Nintendo announced a new <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/animal_crossing_new_horizons">Animal Crossing: New Horizons</a></strong> themed Switch, which will no doubt increase sales of the original model. It arrives in North America on 13th March, and in Europe and Japan on 20th March.<em><br /></em></p> <p><em>Were you hoping to see a new pro model Switch released this year?
