Nintendo Switch 2 Officially Revealed: What’s New?

Nintendo finally announces the successor to the Switch console.

After a flurry of rumors and anticipation, Nintendo has officially announced the Switch 2. The reveal came through a trailer shared on their social media channels and YouTube on Thursday, offering a two-minute glimpse of this new hardware.

The design of the Switch 2 mirrors that of its predecessor, maintaining the familiar layout with a screen flanked by two Joy-Con controllers. However, there’s an interesting twist, these new controllers are connected using a strong magnet. This change could address one common complaint among long-time owners about the controllers loosening over time. Isn’t it nice when manufacturers listen?

The Joy-Cons themselves now sport a sleek black design, with pops of color appearing only under the sticks and where they attach to the console. Another practical upgrade is a longer stand that offers wider tilting options, allowing for more versatile gameplay setups.

While details like release date and pricing remain undisclosed, excitement builds as Nintendo plans to host a Nintendo Direct presentation focused on Switch 2 on April 2.

The trailer also teased a new Mario Kart game running on this upgraded system. Perhaps most reassuring for existing players is how Switch 2 will support both physical and digital games from its predecessor. But hold up, some titles may not be fully compatible due to specific features tied to the original hardware, such as those seen in the Nintendo Labo.

This announcement aligns closely with insights shared by reliable insider Nate the Hate earlier this week, who hinted at today’s reveal during his podcast. He mentioned that we might see another presentation focusing on software later in February or early March, keeping our eyes peeled for that!
