According to MikeOdysseyYT’s observation, Nintendo has recently updated a patent that some Nintendo enthusiasts believe could be for an accessory for the Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch, enabling a second flip-up screen for playing DS games. This speculation seems plausible given the images provided.
Typically, Nintendo patents cover a wide range of ideas, but in this case, emulating DS games on the Nintendo Switch or its successor would likely require hardware support. This means that a solution cannot be solely software-based. To achieve this, Nintendo might need to develop a new device for facilitating such emulation. As a company known for patenting numerous inventions, it is not surprising that they would protect any potential solutions with patents. Thus, paying attention to this particular patent is warranted, and it certainly piques interest.
