After months of speculation, Nintendo finally confirmed the Switch 2 this week with a teaser video that featured a hardware sneak peek. We got a brief glimpse at the next Mario Kart, but details about launch titles aren't expected until later this year.

There's little doubt the Switch 2 is going to be the hottest hardware this year. After years of rumors, Nintendo officially revealed its newest console on Thursday morning, and a lot of Nintendo fans are excited to get their hands on it, which means preorders will likely be hard to come by.

The Nintendo Switch 2, the successor to the Nintendo Switch system, will be released in 2025, the company said. In a new promotional video, Nintendo showcases a larger version of the Switch that looks similar to its predecessor. The video also shows the system’s controllers, or Joy-Cons, now attach to the side of the main unit rather than slide in.
