Nintendo Switch 2 Design Renders Leak Revealing Larger Display, Monochrome Joy-Cons
Nintendo Switch 2 is expected to launch in the coming months, and images of the company's upcoming handheld gaming console have leaked online, giving us a closer look at its design. The design renders appear to confirm several claims made over the past few months that suggest the successor to the Nintendo Switch will feature a bigger display and controllers, along with a more mature design. We can also see that the USB port has been relocated and Nintendo has equipped the gaming handheld with a new, unidentified button.
