We write about Nintendo Switch to 2 gossip for more than two years and – anything – a fair fragment of them proved to be accurate Nintendo’s Full Handheld console revealed. It’s smooth sail until we hit the end of the Nintendo’s buspream road. We need to wait until after the river to know you have to pay $ 450 for long-expected Nintendo console, $ 150 more than the original to launch.

Before direct April 2, we have a modest idea in the console form since January, thanks to the leak dummy unit. It is larger than a 7.9-inch screen, and-real-the joycons currently held on magnets, instead of rail-based points based on the rails. Mario Kart 8 Sequel, now called Mario Kart World, a launch title for switch 2, and you can do it with a $ 500 set of handlelds on June 5.

The most disappointing rumor we need to reject is the price. Some analysts suggest a $ 500 price point, while others claim it’s $ 400. Also presses players to spend when they want to try a demo game Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour. It will include minigames and other tech demons, but imagine if those forced customers to pay Astro’s Playroom When did they spend $ 500 on PlayStation 5?

Below I broke it into the rumors that were fulfilled, those who were not, and the things that were surprised to us.

Really: redesign joycons and mouse-like controls for both controllers

All the people who Expected mouse controls On the switch 2 can lift their hats in celebration. It’s not just the right hand, the red color Joycon acts like a mouse when on a flat surface, but the left side controlled works. Nintendo shows how to get together in a game like Drag X Driveusing the mouse functions to push around a wheelchair and motion control to throw your basketball in a basket.

This can be used in games Civilization VII and the CD Projekt Red is Confirmed THE Cyberpunk 2077 Transfer 2 ports will take advantage of the same gyroscopic objective, touch the screen, and the mouse also moves. This is basically affirming some of the original functions of the switch returned to the new console. I think we can put a cyberpunk port in the “unexpected” category, but it also proves about the expected console processing power for higher resolution.

We’ve been aware of the magnetically joycons who promote leak switch 2 dummy units, but it’s a small cathartic minimal mechanism on Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday.

True: GameCube Games for Nintendo Online Subscribers

A lot of runormoners are so like the Nintendo planned idea Add Gamecube Games to the online subscription SERVICE. On Wednesday, the company fully revealed how we can access some by The Legend of Zelda: The Wind WakerSWITCH 2 Exclusive Gamecube Games on Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack should launch the same day on switch 2 ships, June 5.

True: 1080p to be spent 4k, 120 Hz when rejected thanks for the dispute

Nintendo confirms what previous patents suggest, that the switch 2 makes 4k – just a little different than most widely expected. Seemed a little confidence in Tech up . The dock now has a fan of it to keep things less likely to taste. That extra cooling means that the console processor should handle large workloads when approx. If tied up to a TV, Nintendo says some games can support 4K’s resolutions and 120 Hz, which means there are games inside your games.

We will be excited to see which games are available at this higher resolution.

TRUE: switch 2 shoulder conformity

ALMOST each other original switch title compatible with switch 2. In a Detailed detection infoNintendo describes how most games need to work well, and the full incompetent products are The sink holes. There are also some games with startup issues, including titles like Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. Ultra-popular Fall There are also issues with switch 2 hardware, but got its own switch 2 version.

Error: That’s $ 400 msrp for switch 2

Notification of gossip progors is very confused. Some suggest that it has a $ 400 msrp and others claim to be a $ 500 requested price. This is a lie because Nintendo divided the cost in the middle and offers the console for $ 450. While a version with $ 500 asking price is also Mario Kart World. You can pay $ 90 for an extra pair of switch 2 joycons, $ 80 for a switch 2 pro controller, or $ 110 for a new switch 2 dock.

Error: Ability to use phone or original switch as second screen

Patent DIFFERENT for weeks before the direct April 2 directory showing a accessory to propose a phone or other screen to play with your games, Nintendo DS play. Ninetendo video has nothing to say that this feature is available to transfer 2 buyers. Sure, that accessory can come in the future, but for now players have the option to keep handleld or TV options.

Error: Xbox Games on Switch

Microsoft’s Gaming Division leaders explain that they want to press the game to two Sony and Nintendo consoles. However, Nintendo does not give anyone an indication if it is over. Normal-reliable leaves opon The system will receive games like Halo: The Master Chief Collection and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 On the switch 2. Instead, we see signs of future stems full of games like Last fantasy vii remenethat comes to launch the day of June 5 and is not available on Xbox.

New: Must pay for ‘upgrade packs’

Some games Get “Upgrade Pack” That’s what you grow up more from the games yourself. Nintendo states this site that if you have Alegend of Zelda: Higher in the wild or Tears of the Kingdom And you pay for the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, you can get the upgrades for free. If not, you need pay more for both.

It doesn’t have to come as a big surprise. Sony users pay for upgrading games The end of the US about II If they want more graphical gratitude from PS4 to PS5, but playstation owners get all “enhanced” games on original consoles.

Nintendo has a lot of advance to make players pay more to play with upgrading games on switch 2, but that can’t help payers at full price Super Mario Party Jamboree At the end of the tail of 2024 and have to pay more to access all trapped parts, such as mouse-exclusive minigames, on switch 2.

New: a full chat system and the ability to play multiplayer with only one copy of a game

The gossip thinks the aficionados what does “C” button do on the right hand side Joycon, this particular game, even the console that is dipped or in handheld mode. It also has a built-in mic and this combo facilitates GameChat, the new method of allowing players to throw one another no matter what they run. Nintendo promises you can still talk to friends from the whole room if your console is down, but we need to try it to know its true capabilities.

The best part from this new system is Garshare. Only one player should own a corresponding game, but then everyone in the room can play local multiplayer with the main system. This is like Wireless Multiplayer from Back to Nintendo DS. But it’s better to have time around, because it also supports the original switch and switch lite.

New: an official webcam for switch

While there are many pre-released accessories promised for switch 2, some are expected Nintendo to make Its own webcam. $ 50 Nintendo Switch 2 Camera connects your switch 2 to a press “C” button. The camera also includes a privacy shutter.

Nintendo mentioned that a “compiest USB-C camera” should also work with Switch 2, but we have to try our own webcams to see if some of our favorites are together. The switch 2 stream doesn’t give a good idea about the quality of the camera’s visual quality, but we hope the official camera doesn’t offer a look at your mugs.

New: a price increase for games

We have not yet learned MSRP for all future switch 2 to launch titles, but what we know makes us worry about the cost of future titles. Mario Kart World will cost $ 80 in the US to launch June 5. Donkey Kong Bonanzascheduled to release July 17, spend $ 70. That’s the same price Alegend of Zelda: Kingdom Tears To launch back to 2023.

Map of Mario can resume higher prices to prevent customers to buy console bundle, but a sure sign that companies are planning to raise games. Some publishers can wait to see if Grand Theft Auto 6 Can be sold for nearly $ 100 before they try to do the same in their own games.
