Nintendo is preparing to launch its highly anticipated Switch 2 gaming console on June 5, 2025, with an Australian release planned for the following month. The new device is priced at around 700 Australian dollars, prompting some consumers to consider whether the upgrade is worthwhile. Nintendo forecasts a 13% increase in operating profit for the fiscal year ending March 2026, projecting earnings of 320 billion yen, driven by the Switch 2 launch. The company aims to sell 15 million units within the first year, matching the sales level of the original Switch. Reports indicate that the Switch 2 features a Nvidia chip from 2021 and increased RAM, addressing previous display issues. Financial analysts, including Goldman Sachs, expect the Switch 2 to exceed sales estimates without supply constraints, highlighting strong market enthusiasm for the next-generation console.
