Everything we know (and think we know) about the Nintendo Switch 2

All we really do know is that it’s coming soon.

Rumors regarding the new Switch have been circulating for more than a year, but with less than two months to go until the promised deadline, and in the absence of any real information from Nintendo itself, speculation about the console, its specs, physical profile, and more have reached a fever pitch. That the new Switch will be larger than previous iterations is supported by leaks and info from other accessory manufacturers as well as the idea that the Joy-Con controllers will attach via magnet instead of sliding and snapping into place. Though the company is not immune to the same layoffs and delays(the Switch 2 was originally pegged for a 2024 release) plaguing its peers and indeed has its own manifoldissues with how it treats and pays its employees and contractors, of the major publishers, it seems to be the one that is best navigating the current crisis ravaging the industry.
