We know a lot about the Nintendo Switch 2, but it’s still unclear when the big N will launch the console, as rumors They don’t agree. Some sources said that it could be introduced at the end of this year and others that this presentation will not take place until 2025.

As time goes on, the trend betting on a 2025 launch is gaining momentum, and given the date we’re in, I’m convinced that the last thing the Japanese company is going to do is introduce the Nintendo Switch 2. The reason is very simple, It would be like throwing rocks on your own roof.

We are already in November and the start of the Christmas campaign is just around the corner. This is one of those times the most important year for the technology market, because hundreds of millions of consumers around the world use this campaign to get or treat themselves to the latest technology.

This Christmas campaign will be crucial for stock clearance for Nintendo Switchand therefore I think it’s almost certain that the Japanese company will wait until 2025 to introduce the Nintendo Switch 2. At best, it can be introduced in January 2025 using the CES framework, but remember that several sources indicate that that they will not be available until March or April 2025.

The Nintendo Switch is one of the best consoles in the big N right now It is the third best-selling console in history. The best seller is the PS2, but the gap between the two is very small, so a Nintendo laptop shouldn’t have the sales problem it needs to overtake it.

This means that the Nintendo Switch 2 has a very high bar to clear if it aspires to at least repeat the success of the current model. From what I have seen in relation to its design and specifications, I get the impression that Nintendo did a good job and using a DLSS compatible NVIDIA GPU feels like a great achievement to me.

I don’t want to overlook two other keys that I think will be essential in the Nintendo Switch 2. On the one hand, it is its 12 GB of unified memory, which is enough to be able to to accept cross-platform games without major sacrificesand on the other hand, we have its 2,100 MB/s storage drive, which is very close to the 2,400 MB/s achieved by the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X drives.

If the leaked Nintendo Switch 2 specs are true, this console It will be much more balanced than the originaland will offer more interesting value for the most enthusiastic and demanding public.
