Nintendo’s new Switch console will be launched on June 5 , starting the countdown for one of the most hotly awaited gaming launches in years.
The Switch 2 will retain many of its predecessor’s features , including its detachable “Joy-Con” controllers but will come with a larger screen and quicker processing speeds.
Fans were disappointed by the high price tag, with the console retailing at $449.99 in the United States and €469.99 in Europe — at least a third more than its predecessor.
Nintendo unveiled new games for the Switch 2 , “Donkey Kong Bonanza”, “Kirby Air Riders” and “Mario Kart World”, that will cost €80-90 ($86-$97).
