Japanese financial newspaper Nikkei's Technology Online website reported on Tuesday that Nintendo is currently developing a successor handheld system to the Nintendo 3DS, with a planned release in 2018 or later.

The report states that the handheld system's specifications will be based on whether or not Nintendo's upcoming Switch hybrid home/handheld system is a success. If the Switch is successful, Nintendo will possibly develop the next handheld as a "Switch Slim" version of the console — a smaller version with a correspondingly smaller screen, designed so that it will not break even if children drop it.

In a separate report by the Kyoto Shimbun paper, Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima said that his company will target different child-focused needs and market from the Switch, and will differentiate a future handheld from the Switch through price and form factor. He added that his company are currently discussing the hypothetical handheld's development.
