I think we all know that patents don't usually mean anything and aren't an indicator of a product actually coming to launch, but what do you all think of a potentially smaller, more portable Switch?

Switch 2 is a clear sign to consumers that it's not a Switch, which is the issue they had with the WiiU. I think Nintendo will be too scared to risk a repeat of that honestly. I could see a Nano getting a name like Switch Pocket or something similar. But Switch Next is a bigger risk
