The video showcases exciting updates to the gaming console’s design, features and compatibility. Here’s everything we know so far. Nintendo Switch 2 Teaser The teaser released on YouTube shows the Nintendo Switch 2 is larger than the original and features a rumoured 8.4-inch OLED display with thinner bezels for a modern look. The updated Joy-Cons are slightly bigger and attach magnetically. A new button has been added to the right Joy-Con, near the home button, and both controllers now include extra triggers on the back, near the L/R buttons. Similar to the original, the Joy-Cons can be combined into a traditional gamepad using a controller grip. The console’s layout feels familiar, with power and volume buttons on the top left, cooling vents in the centre, a headphone jack, and two USB-C ports—one on the bottom and another on the right. The back features a redesigned U-shaped kickstand, offering more flexibility for positioning. Nintendo also revealed a redesigned dock for the Switch 2 and confirmed the arrival of a new Mario Kart game, likely the long-awaited Mario Kart 9. Fans have been eager for a new instalment since Mario Kart 8 launched in 2014. Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to launch in June 2025.
