The company previously worked with Nintendo assembling the Switch during the pandemic, so it wouldn’t be surprising if Nintendo tapped Sharp for the display for the new console.Nintendo released an OLED version of the Switch in 2021.In September, Nintendo was reportedly showing off a prototype of the Switch 2 to developers running a modified version of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to demonstrate what the new console can do.
