A Patent for a New Nintendo Gaming Device has Surfaced Online

A recently filed patent for a new Nintendo device has been discovered online. As spotted by Game Rant, the device is seemingly a dual screen gaming device that can be split in half. Images showing the device’s blueprint shows a structure similar to the Nintendo 3DS. However unlike the 3DS, both screens can fold over each other but will still be operable while closed over. The patent may indicate Nintendo’s future console plans but it may also just be one of the company’s scrapped ideas. According to several anonymous sources from VGC and Eurogamer, who have “knowledge of Nintendo’s next-gen console”, Nintendo’s next console will launch in the second half of 2024. According to several rumors the next console will have an 8-inch LCD screen at launch.

Details of the Nintendo Switch’s latest exclusive The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom:

In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, which is a direct sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, players decide their own path through the sprawling landscapes of Hyrule and on the mysterious islands floating in the vast skies above. Discover new destinations, dangers, sights and puzzles that require wits and resourcefulness to overcome. Harnessing the power of Link’s new abilities, players will fight back against the malevolent forces that threaten the kingdom.

The Legend of Zelda action–adventure series started over 35 years ago with the Legend of Zelda game, which debuted in the United States in 1987 for the Nintendo Entertainment System. As the heroic Link, players go on an adventure battling foes and discovering hidden mysteries in vast fields and dungeons. As of March 2023, the series has sold more than 130 million units worldwide.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is now available in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch, the My Nintendo Store and select retailers at a suggested retail price of $69.99. The Nintendo Switch OLED Model – The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Edition system, featuring a special design (game sold separately), is also available at a suggested retail price of $359.99.

Additionally, two accessories—a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller ($74.99 MSRP) and a Nintendo Switch carrying case ($24.99 MSRP), both with designs from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom—are also now available to purchase.
