Nintendo announces Switch 2, the sequel to its greatest console
The new teaser video is an ode to industrial design and playful UX. So can it fix the system’s few flaws?
The Nintendo Switch is the Japanese game company’s second best-selling product of all time, bested only by the Nintendo DS. Today, it announced the long-rumored sequel, the Nintendo Switch 2.
The Nintendo Switch 2 improvements
So far, all we have is a wordless teaser video, which instead of telling the story, shows the new improvements in dramatic, 3D rendered flybys (a style introduced years ago by Apple’s marketing team). The story it tells, however, is still compelling: a bigger screen that will be easier to see, lengthened Joy-Cons that will be easier to hold, and a thinner overall frame.
