Indeed, according to The Verge, Nintendo will announce the Direct/Trailer on January 15, followed by the broadcast on January 16.

Based on previous reports, the console itself will have a May/June release date, which means it will be available in time for the summer holidays.

The January 16 reveal will reportedly focus on the hardware, which means fans can expect another Direct conference showcasing some of the games in the coming weeks.

It was recently claimed that Final Fantasy 7 Remake and FF7 Rebirth are in development for Nintendo Switch 2, while Metroid Prime 4 is expected to launch as a cross-platform game on the original Switch and Switch 2.

A new Mario Kart game is reportedly in development, while a 3D Super Mario also seems likely.

As for the Nintendo Switch 2, the console is also said to have some additional functionality compared to the current console.

The Joy-con controllers will reportedly feature magnetic hall effect joysticks, which should eliminate stick drift.

The console will allegedly launch in dark grey, although further colours may also be available.

According to previous leaks, the Switch 2 is reportedly larger than the current model, with a smaller bezel for more screen space.
