Nintendo
fans
will
reportedly
have
to
wait
a
bit
longer
to
get
their
hands
on
a
Nintendo
Switch
2.
The
video
game
streets
were
talking
after
word
got
out
that
Nintendo
showed
a
bunch
of
lucky
game
developers
at
Gamescom
last
year
the
Nintendo
Switch
2,
fueling
the
fire
that
the
follow-up
to
the
Nintendo
Switch
is
coming
in
2024.
Welp,
unfortunately,
according
to
sources
close
to
the
matter
speaking
with
VGC,
the
Nintendo
Switch
2
will
be
dropping
in
Q1
2025.
A
Brazilian
journalist
also
said
the
same
in
a
video,
plus
“similar
whispers”
from
sources
speaking
with
Eurogamer
also
claim
the
Nintendo
Switch
2
is
coming
in
2025.
If
the
reports
are
accurate,
the
next
Switch
console
could
launch
around
the
same
time
as
its
predecessor
did
in
March
2017.
Two
sources
confirmed
to
VGC
that
they
were
developing
two
titles
for
the
Nintendo
Switch
2:
Switch
Pro
or
whatever
name
it
will
go
by
when
Nintendo
finally
unveils
it.
The
Verge
reports
the
later
date
could
allow
developers
to
get
launch
titles
like
Metroid
Prime
4 ready.
That
game
was
first
announced
in
2017,
and
its
development
was
restarted
in
2019.
It’s
been
five
years
since
we
heard
anything
about
Metroid
Prime
4,
but
according
to
Polygon,
Nintendo
could
have
decided
to
hold
the
game
for
the
console’s
launch.
In
Other
Nintendo
News
This
latest
news
comes
after
reports
indicated
that
the
new
Switch
will
not
have
an
OLED
screen,
which
is
honestly
a
bummer,
but
understandable
to
keep
the
price
down,
and
it
will
still
use
physical
cartridges.
In
other
Nintendo
news,
a
Nintendo
Direct:
Partner
Showcase
is
going
down
on
Wednesday,
Feb
21,
focusing
on
games
coming
to
the
Nintendo
Switch
from
the
company’s
publishing
and
development
partners.
We
will
report
on
any
big
news
that
comes
from
it.
