Just last month, Nintendo finally put an end to all the chatter by officially unveiling the Nintendo Switch 2. This reveal came after weeks of swirling rumors, supposed leaks, and endless speculation about what the next iteration of their portable home console would bring.
In a brief but exciting reveal video, they not only gave us a glimpse of the console’s sleek design but also teased a brand new Mario Kart game. A big plus for fans is the confirmation that the new hardware will maintain backward compatibility with the original Switch.
Nintendo has also shed light on a crucial piece of information: the Switch 2 will support both physical and digital games from the original Switch. However, they did advise that not every game will work flawlessly or be supported on the new system.
As for when we can get our hands on it, the Nintendo Switch 2 is slated for a global release in 2025, though the exact date still remains a mystery. Stay tuned for further updates!
