Forget what you thought you knew about portable gaming because this bad boy's rewriting the rulebook. First off, let's talk about that screen. They've supersized it to a whopping 7.9 inches, and it's sharper than a tack with 1080p resolution and smoother than a greased weasel at 120Hz. Plus, it's all vivid and supports HDR when docked. Your eyeballs are in for the right treat! And when you dock it, compatible games will look brilliant in 4K.
Those Joy-Cons have had a glow-up too. They now snap on magnetically, and the SL and SR buttons are bigger than ever. And get this, they can even double as a mouse! What will they think of next? The sticks are larger too, which is a blessing for those intricate platformers. The speakers are clearer and more natural, and there's a noise-cancelling microphone for those online shouting matches. No more "Can you hear me now?" moments.
They've crammed in a massive 256GB of internal storage, eight times the original! Finally, enough space for all those digital delights. And to keep things cool as a cucumber, the dock's got a built-in fan. Of course, it still does the whole hybrid thing. TV mode, tabletop mode, handheld mode. It's as versatile as a Swiss Army knife, but for gaming!
And here's the kicker: it'll play both Nintendo Switch 2 games and your old Switch games, both physical and digital. Additionally, you can buy a camera which lets you stream your face, voice and game to your friends while playing online multiplayer. It’s pretty much like Discord voice chat but baked into the Nintendo system and you can access it with the dedicated C button on the right joy con.
We’re not expecting this one to come to India yet but the US pricing is $450 for the console and $500 for the Mario Kart World Bundle.
