Switch 2
Nintendo’s new console tries to repeat the success of its predecessor, the Nintendo Switch, released for over eight years.
The first switch popularized the idea of a game console that can be played on the living room or on a plane, taking a wave of PC game brands to follow the example.
Switch 2 has been the company’s largest release since the arrival of the first generation in 2017 – and will probably dictate the next decade for one of the largest and most recognized video game companies in the world.
Changes in the console
Switch 2 itera about its predecessor with several new features, including a voice chat function in the game that allows players to communicate in real time. It also allows users to share certain games with other switch owners while playing in person, even if the other player does not have the title.
Joy-Con controls, which connect to the switch when it is being used as a portable console or can be used separately, will now support feature-like computer mouse functionality. The console will also work with a separate camera so that players can see on the screen when using voice chat in the game and other features.
During its live broadcast from Nintendo Direct, the company showed how players will slide Joy-Con controls on a surface like a computer mouse to move the character on the screen in different ways.
Nintendo also gave the console hardware a very necessary update. Switch 2 has a larger 7.9-inch screen compared to the original 6.2-inch screen, and Joy-Con controls now fit the console magnetically fit into the console, which should make them easier to connect or remove from the console. The console has eight times more storage than its predecessor and dock supports 4K resolution, two changes that should give players more space to store games and improve their appearance when connected to a compatible TV.
