Weren't there rumors that they actually meant to release a new model years ago, but between the Pandemic and the Chip Shortage, they couldn't get what they needed?

That said, with things like the GBA SP, the DSi and the New 3DS, it isn't off-brand for Nintendo to release minor improvements along the way.
