The upcoming Switch 2 is ♐more than just a glorified Switch, Nintendo says,♐ to sighs of relief heard 'round the world.

As revealed during today's long-awaited 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Switch 2 Direct, Nin♍tendo kicked around a number of ideas when trying to find a name for its next console, including the retro-styled Super Nintendo Switch. Obviously it settled on simply calling it the Switch 2, which makes sense, but also opens ♊up some questions about how different it'll be from its predecessor. Eight long years since the release of the first Switch, you'd really hope for something dramatically more capable, and thankfully it sounds like that's the case.

We also know big ol' honkin' games like Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, and Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade are coming⛦ to the console, which says a lot about t🌠he power of its custom Nvidia processor and GPU.

Anyway, during the direct Nintendo really drove home the point that the Switch 2 is a whole new console and not just an iteration on the existing Switch. "As you just saw, Nintendo Switch 2 isn't simply an improved Nintendo Switch," said Switch 2 hardware design lead Tetsuya Sasaki (timestamped ). "We redesigned the system fr🎐om the ground up and packed in lots of new gameplay features."

In a separate , Nintendo details some of the ways the Switch 2 outperforms the Switch, including its bigger, sharper screen, better memory, improved processor꧟, longer battery life, and more.
