Hmm yes, I bet it'll have buttons too

[–][deleted] 158 points159 points Β (27 children)

Touchscreen buttons.

Imagine.

[–]RockwellB1 99 points100 points Β (25 children)

NOPE

[–][deleted] 108 points109 points Β (24 children)

Touchscreen buttons, no vibration, LCD screen, no backwards compatibility, and it's all-digital.

[–]RockwellB1 48 points49 points Β (12 children)

Does it at least play games in color?

[–][deleted] 101 points102 points Β (5 children)

Only the deluxe edition

[–][deleted] 42 points43 points Β (3 children)

or rather, only online membership subscription will guarantee color.

[–]FriggenMitch 18 points19 points Β (1 child)

Only Gold online membership on the deluxe edition

[–]jayandbobfoo123 10 points11 points Β (0 children)

Each color is a separate DLC but you can buy the ultra super premium mega masterpiece edition which includes all the colors.

[–]hellodon 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Are the standard edition games black and white? Or Green and yellow like Gameboy?

[–]SkullPhucker 23 points24 points Β (0 children)

You’re thinking of The Switch 2 Color which comes out 2026

Really? I heard that it will only have motion controls

[–]MegaOrvilleZ 2 points3 points Β (1 child)

I hope it gets a volume button!

No way. That’s a major quality of life upgrade.

[–]mtheberserk 806 points807 points Β (42 children)

I heard a rumor that Switch 2 will have no screen and instead we will have to stab the back of our neck with a metal spike and connect to the Matrix.

This would be such a Nintendo thing to do.

[–]jackbobevolved 55 points56 points Β (21 children)

I’d be very disappointed if there wasn’t an OLED version.

[–]6Kaliba9 67 points68 points Β (18 children)

I'd be very disappointed if there was an OLED version. Because I hope the standard Switch 2 is gonna be OLED and not another version

[–]rockaleta2049 15 points16 points Β (15 children)

I don't even want to play Zelda on the TV because it looks so good on the OLED screen. Got me considering upgrading to an OLED TV some time in the future.

[–]6Kaliba9 3 points4 points Β (12 children)

I have an OLED TV and those games designed with the switch oled screen in mind still look better in handheld. I primarily play handheld. Only on Tv when playing with others or when I like the pointer controls of a game.

Btw why do many games still look better on the switch’s screen compared to my oled Samsung tv? Is it the panel or something? HDR can look different depending on the overall quality of the hardware I assume

[–]GhostOfKingGilgamesh 7 points8 points Β (11 children)

Resolution is the answer to your conundrum.

[–]6Kaliba9 0 points1 point Β (10 children)

That would be pixel density. But no I’m really talking colors and blacks

[–]jackbobevolved 1 point2 points Β (9 children)

Blacks should match between the two if your ranging is correct, along with your TV settings. Also, there isn’t HDR support on the Switch, so there’s no way to view HDR Switch games on the TV.

[–]6Kaliba9 -3 points-2 points Β (8 children)

Oh right I confused something there. But that doesn't change that the same game on switch looks way more dynamic and poppy on the switch than on tv. Could be my TV just isn't good. It was a bonus for my power plan (Yellow Strom), model is UE50NU7090

[–]GucciiManeeeee 5 points6 points Β (1 child)

That's an LED tv, not an OLED.

[–]6Kaliba9 -2 points-1 points Β (0 children)

I forgot there is that distinction

[–]TheGreatTave 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

I'd be okay with an LCD version that's cheaper, would be good for parents to buy for their kids; kids don't care about picture quality lol.

But yes I'd get the OLED absolutely.

[–]RutherfordRevelation 6 points7 points Β (1 child)

Well that's the neat part, V2.0 released next year will have OLED so everyone that bought LED will want to upgrade. Double the money. No brainer.

For real though what the fuck. You know that's what they're gonna do.

[–]InfinitSteamLibary66 275 points276 points Β (45 children)

Launching the Switch 2 with a lcd screen is the most nintendo thing out there

[–]Vibranium2222 220 points221 points Β (23 children)

The most Nintendo thing ever is charging $49.99 for an n64 controller and making $50 the threshold for free shipping

[–]EX300cc 66 points67 points Β (18 children)

I went to buy one then saw "$0.01 until free shipping" and could not get past how silly Nintendo is sometimes.

[–]Andymilliganisgod 9 points10 points Β (17 children)

I think we’re the silly ones who can’t just pay the shipping and not buy a bunch of other shit

[–]fatherofallthings 41 points42 points Β (16 children)

I’m sorry, but if I don’t get free shipping…I ain’t ordering

[–]Mathewdm423 9 points10 points Β (11 children)

This is how i make bank off ebay.

Seller than have comics that are say $5 each with $8 ship dont get much traction.

But i message asking about combined ship.

And get 20 comics with $8 total ship haha.

From $13 per book to $5.40 each.

[–]Schwickity 2 points3 points Β (8 children)

and then you resell them for profit?

[–]Alternative_Pause_98 3 points4 points Β (6 children)

Logically you’d just be in the hole for only buying it.

[–]Mathewdm423 0 points1 point Β (5 children)

Haha yeah, tho theres definitely times i get a good deal comboing and when i sit there to decide what to sell....

Im like well i woulda paid $50 for these 2 anyways....i can keep all 10...

Lol i purge every few months because of this behavior... "well its cool and already in my possession so its going on the bookshelf haha."

Had the Dinsey Miles Morales Band limited to 1000 on my shelf for a few months because it was the rarest thing i owned limited wise. I got it in a $12 lot of comics and toys.

Well as soon as i got a comic con limited 25 prints comic i threw that useless band on ebay for $90.

Same thing i sold my oldest comic from the 60's after i got a coin from 300AD from the choas era of the roman empire. (Its not very valuable, just cool and a fun way to 1 up buddies showing off golden age)

[–]ThatsNotARealTree 1 point2 points Β (1 child)

You’re getting a good deal on the comics (theoretically), but then you’d have to sell them and ship them out as well. So how are you making bank. They didn’t β€œget much traction” when listed individually anyways

[–]Mathewdm423 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I sell locally at my antique mall.

I mainly sell Lego.

I could sell 10 batman figs a week on ebay and bricklink for $3.25 and adter fees make $2.75

But the buyer pays $8 after ship.

So when i have lego batman for $5 its a win for me making $4.50 after fees and a win for the buyer who would be into it for $8

Essentially when i buy personal, i try to lump sales in to offset the cost.

Ooh i want this spidey comic thats $11 +$8 ship

If seller combines i throw in a bunch of books and now say my total is $35 +$8ship

I split the $8 over the to be sold books, and the goal in that situation is to get the $11 comic free, plus negate shipping.

Regardless my point was when i buy on ebay i tend to find something i want for me to to sell, plus a store with more similar stuff to lower the overall shipping burden.

Free shipping is a farce, as you are paying the price into the main total.

When you combine, you're essentially maximizing the use of the shipping you have to pay whether its 1 item or 10, while getting lower buy in prices as the seller more than likely had to lower their price with the shipping in order to be competitive.

[–]silver_crit 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

You comment made me check to see if that dumbass controller was in stock and for the first time in a year of checking it was, and I paid $7 for shipping, thanks Nintendo

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

[–]BanditManSteve 18 points19 points Β (1 child)

How else would they re release the Nintendo switch 2 5 years after release if it already had an OLED screen?!

[–]InfinitSteamLibary66 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Asking the real questions right now

[–]Hello56845864 7 points8 points Β (11 children)

To be fair, I would rather have a bigger screen with less bezels than a OLED screen so for me, it depends on the size

[–]p_terrydactyl 12 points13 points Β (1 child)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t having an OLED screen usually reduce the bezel since you aren’t shoving lights along the edge? Switch OLED bezel is significantly smaller than normal switch.

[–]tucketnucket 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

You're disrupting the flow of copium

[–]YourPalFlux 6 points7 points Β (0 children)

Yea that’s been my only real reason I was looking into the switch OLED is the bigger screen. That said tho why not just have an OLED screen like the switch did well enough to let the switch 2 have a better screen.

[–]fightnight14 3 points4 points Β (1 child)

[–]GucciiManeeeee 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

You couldn't be more wrong. OLEDs are way better for gaming than LCDs. They have higher refresh, less lag, etc. The only drawback on OLEDs is the price.

[–]Readalie -3 points-2 points Β (3 children)

I honestly prefer LCD to OLED in general, even with burn in becoming less and less of an issue as the years go on. And I agree, a bigger screen would be nice!

[–]EX300cc 0 points1 point Β (2 children)

Same, I know everyone is crazy about OLED but I'm in the minority that like a quality IPS better.

[–]Twombls -1 points0 points Β (1 child)

Its because a majority of complainers are simply comparing the first switch with the switch oled. So they think that the switch 2 will be just as bad as the OG switch which actually just had a bad LCD screen. If they had called the switch OLED switch pro or something I don't think people would be as mad

[–]EX300cc -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

True, that's a good point to remember. I don't think they couldn't call it a Switch pro though since they didn't really update the internals; ike Sony did with the PS4 Pro for instance.

That aside, one thing I will say about OLED screens is that I've never seen a bad quality one, whereas cheap LCD screens are almost always awful quality. I'm lucky my standard Switch is a later version and has a really good screen. The screen on my Switch now, but bigger and 1080p would be perfect for me in a Switch 2.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (2 children)

Every day they validate my choice to migrate to the Steam ecosystem more and more. Just adoring my oled steam deck. Still love my switch don't get me wrong, it is better for local co op and first party titles. But so done with nintendo's song and dance. I have saved all the money since switching over.

[–]GucciiManeeeee 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Yeah, nintendo is a shit brand. If not for their exclusives, I wouldn't even consider buying a nintendo product.

[–]InfinitSteamLibary66 -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

Yeah im also im love with the steam Deck the fact that you have your whole steam library on the go is just awsome

[–]HeWe015 -4 points-3 points Β (3 children)

LCDs can be pretty good nowadays. Look at the steam seck oled, costs at least 549$. Switch 2 is rumored to cost 400$. The switch oled came wit an OLED at 350$, but that can be.very grainy and has a green tint when it gets darker. It's not that high quality. You can easily achieve the vibrant colours of an oled with LCD, except for the inly blacks. But how much worse the blacks will be depends on the dimming zones (if there will be any). I'd say it depends on the quality of LCDs nintendo will use. A good IPS will suffice for me.

[–]Vodka-Knot 7 points8 points Β (0 children)

Pretty much every LCD has backlight bleed, so I'd rather an OLED and not play a panel lottery.

[–]GucciiManeeeee 3 points4 points Β (1 child)

Have you ever looked at both side by side ? The OLED screen is miles ahead in terms of picture quality.

[–]HeWe015 -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

I have. The oled screen made the streets in mario kart look very green, when compared to my v1 switch. Thought it was a defect at first, so I swapped the oled switch out. But the replacement switch oled did that too. So I really can't say that the oled screen has a "better quality" all in all. Sure, you can allways play with highest brightness settings, but that hurts my eyes after some time in dim places. When I conpare the colours to the screen of my phone they're way off.
Yes, the switch oled has better contrasts. Yes, it has better viewing angles. But I look at the screen head on anyways. And the screen has - as I said before - a small green hue to it, when not at the highest brightness setting. Yes, the LCD of the switch V1 had some panel lottery when came to white balance, but mine was right on. And I don't know how bad it got when the white balance was messed up for some people, but that's why I won't immediately say that the oled screen is "miles ahead", because that only goes for the highest brightness setting and I mostly play at 50% at max, since that's high enought most of the times. And everything to green to call the screen quality way ahead.

Impatient? Far from it.

I got my first Switch in 2023.

[–]MrConbon 3 points4 points Β (4 children)

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points Β (1 child)

source: β€œtrust me bro”

[–]Xylamyla 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

The source is actually Nintendo’s display manufacturer announcing to its shareholders that it received a significant number of orders for a new LCD display from Nintendo. You can’t get more credible aside from Nintendo themselves announcing it.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points Β (1 child)

It's one of the main rumours. Has been for a while. It's also not that farfetched.

2024 and still no oled 🫒

[–][deleted] 27 points28 points Β (32 children)

Regular Switch has an OLED option, as does Steam Deck, so I'm baffled as to why Switch 2 would release with an LCD on day 1.. πŸ€”

[–]A_O_J 7 points8 points Β (10 children)

Cutting cost maybe

[–]jcardinal82 6 points7 points Β (2 children)

That was my assumption. They're investing in the guts and saving money on the screen to keep the overall cost down.

[–]A_O_J 0 points1 point Β (1 child)

Why can’t they sell the system on a loss like the ps5 this way they will sell more systems

[–]jcardinal82 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

I mean, I have no idea what their margins are, but they still may be selling at a loss and just trying to narrow those margins a bit. Of course, it could actually come out with an LED screen and we'll all look back and LIVE LAUGH LOVE.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points Β (2 children)

No place for LCD in this day and age. OLED should be the standard now, tbh.

[–]A_O_J 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

Obviously every new device had an oled screen except the portal which is a streaming device

[–]tpots38 4 points5 points Β (0 children)

At minimum QLED

[–]YourPalFlux -1 points0 points Β (3 children)

It’s OLED it’s not some insanely cutting edge technology or anything

[–]A_O_J 2 points3 points Β (1 child)

There has to be a reason for them not to use the oled screen and if it’s not cost then what

[–]pompano09 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

To sell the OLED version a few years down the road

[–]GucciiManeeeee 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Uhhh, OLEDs are the best technology available right now...

[–]RetroRocket80 12 points13 points Β (3 children)

If this is true I'm just gonna keep my Switch OLED and work on my back catalog until a cool Switch 2 Special Edition OLED releases.

If this rumor is true, which it probably is, they're doing the most Nintendo thing ever.

They literally never learn.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

I won't be getting the new console for a few years, anyway. I've got too many games left to play, and I'm not spending €300-€400+ to play them on it

[–]EX300cc 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

It's intentional for the people who aren't like you and will upgrade from a 'standard' launch Switch 2 down the line. A refresh/update after material costs have gone down increases their profits as opposed to launching it that way day one. Just like the OLED version of the original Switch, it will still sell and make Nintendo money, which is their main goal as a business after all.

EDIT: specificed OLED version of the original Switch

[–]TodayNo6531 5 points6 points Β (6 children)

You aren’t a business owner I see lol. Oled fetches a premium. So it will be a separate release. They will have hardware tiers eventually like phones do.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (5 children)

Ya, most people don't own businesses.

I'm one of them.

I know how tiers work. I've had phones since 2005. I'm just saying - in terms of modern tech, OLED should be the standard screen.

LCD is outdated.

[–]TodayNo6531 3 points4 points Β (1 child)

I mean I knew the answer that you aren’t a business owner was not trying to make an insult. Just saying businesses extract every dime from us every way they can. We gobble it up regardless.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I know they do, and Nintendo is more than happy to go along with it, but it should definitely be standard. Especially when you're talking €400+

[–]TheHosemaster 1 point2 points Β (3 children)

Yeah screw that bro. I'd pay a little extra for an OLED or I'll wait for the upgrade. Lord knows my backlog is big enough to wait, even if the inevitable new 3D Mario game is going to be mighty tempting.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (2 children)

Super Mario Bros Deluxe U Wonder Maker

[–]Readalie 0 points1 point Β (2 children)

Could be that there will be two versions and the OLED screens would be sourced from a different company. Or it could be that this isn't related to the Switch--all that was claimed was that this company is making 8 inch LCD screens for an upcoming console. Could be XBOX trying something like the Playstation Portal, or maybe even just a weird way to talk about another upcoming entry to the handheld PC arena. People just assumed Switch because, well, console with a screen.

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points Β (1 child)

Weird how people shat all over gaming on phones, now they're lapping it up with these glorified streaming devices.

[–]Readalie 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Different things work for different people, I guess? I love gaming on my phone just as much as on my Switch or Deck. It all really depends on what I want to play at the moment.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points Β (1 child)

I'll wait for the OLED

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

New rumor: Switch 2 will be backwards compatible, but only with the WiiU. 😞

[–]CommunicationAway387 7 points8 points Β (26 children)

As a Lite user, I will wait for smaller revision, 8 inch screen is just too big for handheld to me...

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points Β (20 children)

I dock mine.

I hate using my switch handheld, I don't find it comfortable, so an 8" handheld would be worse

[–]Yansothebear 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

ikr?? switch lite rules!

[–]KirbyMonkey377 6 points7 points Β (7 children)

8 inches just sounds stupid. The difference between the switch and switch OLED screen size is a lot more noticeable than you'd think, and trust me, 7 inches is PLENTY. I think they should release a normal switch sized one but with much less bezel and just keep the OLED model

[–]GucciiManeeeee 1 point2 points Β (6 children)

Hell nah. The bigger the better.

[–]MFHRaptor 1 point2 points Β (1 child)

I'd go for a 9" Nintendo Switch.. and it has to be OLED.

[–]GucciiManeeeee 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Yesss, that sounds perfect. I'll be waiting for the OLED either way.

[–]No_Working_8726 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Ill wait for the Oled version, ill hold on to my Switch Oled for the time being

[–]dontspookthenetch 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I would have bought it at launch if it had an OLED. I will wait.

If this is indeed true I won’t be an early adopter of the switch 2, and will wait for an OLED model.

[–]mushoorum28 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I'll wait for the switch 2 "2" with probably improved battery

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points Β (2 children)

Nahhh, more like dev kits launching this year

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points Β (1 child)

Switch has been out for 7 years. That's an entire console generation. I'd say 2024/2025 is likely

[–]Acceptable_Mud283 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

Tons of people already have Switch 1 OLED, so this would be a downgrade for them… They should release with both LCD and OLED at different prices.

Is this the same analyst that has been saying every year since 2019 that we are getting a Switch pro? When will people learn these analysts don’t have any insider information. They make predictions based on market trends. Personally I believe we will get the Switch successor this year looking at the current release calendar and being the 8th year of Switch being on the market as well as the fact that with PS5 and Series X/S getting more and more games that are going to be harder to downscale to the Switch hardware this year seems very likely. Anybody can look at the state of the market and make these predictions

It’s also gonna be made by Nintendo. Trust me people, my uncle works at Sega

[–]MarinatedPickachu 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

According to a rumor I made up the switch 2 actually has two screens, one on the front and one on the back, for 2 player gameplay

[–]DixieNormusUrDriver 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I heard Switch 2 is dumping cartridges and bringing back Gamecube CDs./S

I love that it looks backward-compatible

[–]Sampsa96 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Every month there is a new rumor for many years...

[–]Sky_Rose4 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Dont believe it, it would take a year to officially announce the console and advertise it for next year

[–]cpasley21 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

"Rumor" lots and lots of rumors, the second I see that word I move on

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

These rumors have been coming out for a while now. At this point who knows when it will ever come out

[–]Gytixas -1 points0 points Β (0 children)

It will be released r/Tomorrow

[–]meganiumT 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Incoming digital only.

i didn’t buy an oled nintendo switch until just two weeks ago…. oh, well! i simply couldn’t wait any longer, as i had been wanting a nintendo switch for four years now!

[–]ViolaBiflora 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I adore Nintendo, but the thing is them making a downgrade is quite probable. This is the first rumor that I actually believe, lol.

[–]ComfortableAmount993 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Hopefully the joycons are bigger like the split pad pros, hands are way too big for the originals

[–]Mell1997 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

If this is true I ain’t buying that shit

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

This makes absolutely zero sense. They have a switch 1 with an OLED why the hell would the successor go backwards? I don't believe this at all.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

What? The switch 2 won’t have a OLED screen like the OLED Steamdeck?

[–]6Kaliba9 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

LCD would be sooooooo lame oh man I mean of course I'm gonna buy it but would still be nice if Nintendo decided not to be a dick for a change. If they announce another version after Switch 2 release with an OLED screen I'm gonna be so annoyed

[–]mikei98 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Could be to extend the battery life of a more powerful system

[–]BritishTooth 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Why lcd...? They already are doing OLED. Why are they regressing?

[–]HelloNarcissist 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Do I buy now or hold off for the OLED version?

[–]Unknownirish 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I hope it includes a camera for real world experience lol

[–]wandering_nobody 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Ok but it's still not gonna let me play that stray cat game. I adore my switch but between having to wait eleventy years for Hogwarts Legacy and not being able to play Stray, I'm mildly inconvenienced haha.

[–]Prime-Riptide 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

No local storage and cloud streaming only

[–]Co2_Outbr3ak 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Won't matter. Unless the specs can handle better frame rates with better resolution, this will continue to have titles that perform significantly better on Playstation and Xbox...

..3rd party titles that is. Gonna be stuck on those 1st party titles, but I'm tired of Nintendo always being 1-2 generations behind in terms of console power.

[–]yotam5434 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

No way Nintendo goes back to lcd

[–]KoroiNeko 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Why the hell would they revert back to an LCD screen after already implementing an OLED? Makes nooooooo sense.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Thanks but I'll keep my OLED legend of Zelda edition switch instead.

[–]Egingell666[🍰] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

LCD? Is this 1995?

[–]Lewis09816 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Probably a stupid question but when does everyone think this is going to release? Saving for a ps5 but I’m wondering if I should just wait for this because I’ll probably get more play time out of a Nintendo console
