There is probably very little overlap between people who would base their purchasing decisions on the announcement-of-an-announcement and people who are buying Yet Another Switch in TYOOL 2024. They have already triple-dipped the former group with the original Switch model (like mine), the OLED model that looks like the original but with revised innards, and the mini model without detachable joycons.
Announced next year (by March) means shipping even later. Some might put off purchasing but that’s easily countered by a price drop.
