The price of the Nintendo Switch 2 rose from 469.99 euros to 499.99 euros on September 1, 2026. However, not all retailers have updated their prices accordingly. Some are even offering the console at a discount, such as Joybuy, which is selling it for nearly 125 euros less than the official price. The Nintendo Switch 2 includes a 7.9-inch Full HD LCD screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate, supports all games from the original Switch, and features magnetic Joy-Con controllers. It is currently available on promotion starting at 376.43 euros for Joyplus members at Joybuy (with the first 30 days free), and a coupon allows it to be purchased for 389 euros. The Nintendo Switch 2 is slightly larger than its predecessor but remains easy to handle. It features a 7.9-inch 1080p LCD screen with visible borders, which provides clear visuals and vibrant colors. While some users would have preferred an OLED screen for better contrast and deeper blacks, a rumor suggests that an OLED version of the Switch 2 may be released around 2028. The console can output a 4K signal at 60 frames per second to a television when connected to its dock, which includes an HDMI 2.1 port, an RJ45 port, a USB-C port for charging, and two USB-A ports for peripherals. The Switch 2 only supports microSD Express cards and no longer reads older microSD cards. The magnetic Joy-Con controllers make it easier to attach them to the console, and they include an optical sensor that turns them into a mouse on a flat surface. However, these controllers are not very ergonomic, and an extra controller is recommended for more comfortable gameplay. The console also includes the GameShare feature, which allows multiplayer online or local play with a single game cartridge and a single license, similar to Steam Remote Play. The Nintendo Switch 2 is powered by an Nvidia Tegra T239 chip, supported by 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. This setup allows games to run smoothly and reduces loading times. Nvidia's DLSS technology also enhances image detail compared to previous models. The Nintendo Switch 2 is compatible with most games from the original Switch, and the number of exclusive titles continues to grow. In terms of battery life, the console has a 5220 mAh battery, offering between 2 and 6.5 hours of use depending on the game. In portable mode, it is difficult to exceed 2 hours on more demanding titles like Mario Kart World. The Joy-Con controllers last about 20 hours and can be recharged in 3 hours and 30 minutes.
