The Nintendo Switch is Nintendo's 8th home console. It was officially announced with a trailer on {{date|20|October|2016}}, and is scheduled to launch on {{date|3|March|2017}}. The console itself is a gamepad similar to the [[Wii U|Wii U Gamepad]], but allows for the sides of the gamepad to disconnect, allowing them to perform as stand-alone controllers. The console also includes a dock, in which you can insert your console, allowing you to connect and stream to your tv screen. Since the entire console is built within this gamepad, the switch doubles as both a home console and a handheld.

No Pikmin games have been officially confirmed for the Nintendo Switch, however many believe that [[Pikmin 4|the fourth installment of Pikmin]] will be released on this console. The [[Merchandise#Olimar_amiibo|Olimar amiibo]], has functionality with the game [[mario:Mario Kart 8 Deluxe|Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]] for the Nintendo Switch.
