And 395.99 in European countries. Let's think about it, if the Switch 2 is really going to be as powerful as a PS4 Pro than its Custom Nvidia GPU or APU will be a lot to start with, probably about $160 or more to start with which is almost half of the entire price, then you need to account for the motherboard and other internals which will be about $100 dollars, and then we need to account for the HD screen which should be about $60, then the joy-cons which should be about another $60 dollars, and then everything else that comes in the box which would all add up to be around $400 for everything that comes in the box. But then we need to account for tariffs of course which would add at least and extra $30, and that is why the Switch 2 will be $429.99. But then I might be wrong, tell me what you guys think and thanks for reading my post! P.S All of our wallets are gonna feel the pain...

Alright, here’s my prediction for the upcoming Switch 2 Direct!
Backwards Compatibility & Visual Upgrades – Nintendo confirms Switch 2 will support Switch 1 games, with select titles getting enhanced visuals and performance boosts.
Mario Kart (Launch Title!) – Brand-new trailer revealing gameplay, new mechanics, and fresh ideas to shake up the series. Launches alongside the console.
Metroid Prime 4 (Launch Title!) – Finally, real gameplay footage and a firm release date. It’s happening.
New Nintendo IP – Every new console gets one. Think Arms for Switch or Splatoon for Wii U. Expect something fresh.
Big 3D Mario (Coming Later) – First full trailer for the next massive Mario adventure. Not a launch title, but dropping within the first year.
Hollow Knight: Silksong – Yep, it’s still real. New trailer confirms it’s finally coming this year.
Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake – A full remake of OOT, set for late 2025/early 2026. Not just a remaster—full-on modern visuals and gameplay tweaks. (Could also be a WW or TP port.)
Next 3D Zelda (Teaser) – Nintendo ends the Direct with a cryptic mini-teaser for the next big Zelda game. Probably 4+ years away, but they want us to know it’s coming.
In between these major announcements, we’ll likely see a mix of third-party titles making their way to the Switch 2.
If this Direct happens, it’s gonna be legendary. What are your predictions?

I can clarify on what’s in here in the comments if I need to (i.e. first one, performance boost on major titles, refers to big first-party games like BOTW/TOTK, Pikmin, Mario Odyssey, etc. and AAA games like Fortnite and Overwatch).

They will use Metroid Prime 4 to showcase Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games as well as Mouse mode.
Edit: It was one of many games to showcase those two features.

Imagine this—what if the Switch 2 had the Nintendo Music App that let you select songs to play on the home menu? You could set classic tracks from Zelda, Mario chill Animal Crossing tunes or even the OG Wii BG Music as your background music while navigating the UI.
How cool would that be? What do you guys think?

My bingo card for switch 2 hopefully it comes true and sorry for how kinda bad it looks but you get the idea

I’m most certain not all of these will happen right away, but I’m excited for the event either way!

Hi all I was doing a bit of research on the arm A78 cores that the Switch 2 SoC will likely have. Going through Arms info, the cores use 1w at 3Ghz, so if the clock speeds are to be believed then the cores could use up to 0.33 Watts per core, so if 8 could be around 2.64w for the CPU, then I assume it would be around 6-7w for the GPU in handheld. Meaning with the LCD screen could be talking up to 15w total power. Which does make me question what the battery life will be like in handheld, maybe more closer to the original Switch V1 of 3hrs Vs 5hrs for the V2.

Think about it. The joycons moving like a mouse in the reveal, the little spot on the side of the new joycons that somewhat resembles the spot on a mouse, and the fact that the button has a C on it
