How much will the new Nintendo Switch 2 cost? 

Nintendo recently released the first trailer for its highly anticipated Switch 2 handheld gaming console. This is, of course, a worthy successor to one of the best-selling handheld gaming consoles ever. The current version of the Nintendo Switch has already sold more than 143 million units, but it is no longer selling well due to its age. So it is not surprising that the video was viewed by more than 17 million American YouTube users in just 48 hours.

The Nintendo Switch 2 actually resembles a classic portable game console and will be much more powerful compared to the current model. Its performance should be able to compete with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One without any major problems. In practice, this means that we will be able to run even the most demanding games with the Nintendo Switch 2 game console. In addition, there will be a screen that should support image rendering with a frequency of up to 240 hertz. The high-quality screen should also support 40 Hz and 120 Hz image rendering, in order to maintain compatibility with older games, as they are still popular among users.

The Tegra239 Orin platform should provide enough power to render images. It should process data with 12 processor cores, eight of which will be Cortex-A78 cores. This will fit perfectly with the OLED screen. Of course, the retail price of the new product will also be appropriate for this.

If we are to believe the online rumors of a user with the pseudonym @Shpeshal_Nick, the Nintendo Switch 2 portable game console will cost a whopping 483 euros in the United States. This means that in Europe we will most likely pay more than 500 euros for the novelty. This is significantly more than the Nintendo Switch portable console, which was valued at 290 euros in the United States in 2017. More about the extremely interesting Nintendo Switch 2 portable game console will only be known on April 2 this year during the official presentation.
