"It just annoyed me so much because it separated the console from the Joy-Cons, whereas now it looks so much more seamless."
When is the Nintendo Switch 2 coming?This is not officially confirmed yet. Nintendo has only announced 2025 as a rough release period. But most leakers assume that the console will be released in late May or June. This would also fit in with the hands-on tour where the device can be tried out – and which ends exactly then.
What do you think of the change and have you noticed the gaps at all so far?
