Nintendo Switch 2 Direct: Watch the Big Reveal Today

Nintendo reveals Switch 2 details in a highly anticipated Direct presentation.

The moment many have awaited is finally here. Nintendo will reveal the Switch 2 during a special Nintendo Direct today. After years of speculation and high hopes, fans are eager to see what Nintendo has in store for its new console.

This launch is expected to be monumental, with analysts predicting it could usher in one of the most successful starts in video game history. The Switch 2 Direct takes place today, April 2, at specific times worldwide:

  • US (Pacific) – 6 am
  • US (Eastern) – 9 am
  • UK (BST) – 2 pm
  • Japan – 10 pm
  • Australia – 12am (April 3)

You can watch the presentation through the above stream or visit Nintendo’s YouTube channel.

Nintendo confirmed that this Nintendo Direct would last one hour, matching the length of the original Switch’s reveal back in 2017. Expect a thorough look at the hardware and an explanation of lingering questions about the console.

A significant point of curiosity is the C button on the right Joy-Con. Recently confirmed as a C button after being shown blank during its initial announcement, it remains uncertain what its function will be. Speculation runs wild; some believe it may pertain to social features like ‘chat’, ‘community’, or other similar concepts.

The capabilities of Joy-Con controllers are also under scrutiny. There are hints that they might be usable as mouse devices when turned sideways—a feature teased previously and possibly confirmed today.

Nintendo often introduces unexpected innovations with its hardware; two USB ports on the new console suggest there could be more surprises coming our way. Presently, only one title has been officially announced for release alongside Switch 2—an upcoming Mario Kart game briefly featured in earlier discussions.

A recent note on a Nintendo webpage hinted at “Switch 2 software and Switch Edition software,” which implies existing games may receive updated versions for this new platform. More details should emerge during today’s event.

This update is of immense interest to for everyone as we await further announcements from Nintendo regarding their plans for this next-gen system. What do you think about these changes?
