Nintendo finally gave us a good look at the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 during their Direct presentation on April 2nd, 2025. This event, while informative, left fans buzzing with a mix of excitement and confusion as several details were either not fully explained or scattered across a multitude of articles and retail listings. Given the blur of speculation, half-truths, and updates that have since filled the internet, we’ve taken on the task of putting together a robust and reliable FAQ. Our guide compiles verified info directly from Nintendo and insights from our firsthand experiences with the Switch 2. We’ll continue to update this FAQ as fresh details emerge.
