Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa has promised a "smooth transition" for users moving from the Switch to the company's next console, with Nintendo Accounts playing a key role. Furukawa said the company wanted to do "as much as possible" to help users move to the new console, while utilising the accounts. The move is significant as it will be the first time Nintendo users will be able to carry their account from one console to the next. Furukawa also noted that Nintendo had previously needed to rebuild the relationship with its customers with every hardware transition.
