Nintendo Switch 2: What We Know So Far
It’s interesting to note that Nintendo has not officially revealed the name of the Nintendo Switch successor, but it seems increasingly likely, given how popular the Switch brand has become, that it will be called the Switch 2. While the official name is still a mystery, we already know that the Nintendo Switch successor is expected to launch around March 2025.
As for the build, based on leaked images, it is speculated that the Nintendo Switch 2 could feature an 8-inch display with Joy-Cons that attach magnetically. It could also support USB-C ports on both the top and bottom of the console. The Nintendo Switch has already been a very successful console for Nintendo, and it would make sense for the company to maintain a design familiar to the Switch, continuing with the hybrid form factor, which could benefit the successor as well.
Regarding specifications, the Nintendo Switch 2 could feature 12GB of RAM, HDMI 2.1, 256GB of base storage, and may feature an LCD display instead of the OLED one seen on the current Nintendo Switch OLED.
