So,whats in storefor the Switch 2?
First of all, thats apparently what it will be called.
The next generation Switch, officially described by Nintendo, is a legitimate sequel.
The logo will reportedly be the classic Switch symbol with a 2 next to it.
It should contain a U-shaped kickstand that folds flat into the handhelds body when unused.
The leaker claims youll feel the same heft as the Switch OLED when holding it.
There isalso a dock, and this is where things get interesting.
It also includes the same number of ports as before, with two USB-C, HDMI, and ethernet.
According to the Redditor, the dock has a fan built in.
The dock is rated for 60W, while the handheld is rated for 60W.
NextHandheld could not confirm this detail.
NextHandheld claims they will drop pictures on Christmas Day, Dec. 25.
Better yet, The Verge said the Redditor shared more details on an upcoming announcement from Nintendo.
Nintendo has only confirmed that it will announce its equipment sometime before its fiscal year ends in March 2025.
News from the future, delivered to your present.
Those who want a console at launch June 5 should get in line as soon as possible.
