Expect Switch 2 To Be Iterative Instead Of “A Revolution,” Says Analyst

The Switch 2 might look like the current hybrid console, according to analyst Serkan Toto. Toto also predicted the unannounced system will carry a bigger price tag when Nintendo launches the product, which is expected later this year.

Sharing his predictions with GamesIndustry.biz, Toto believes that Switch 2 will finally arrive in 2024 at a cost of $400. The founder of consultancy group Kantan Games added that Nintendo's next console is "likely to be an iteration rather than a revolution.

In other words, expect the same hybrid functionality with portability being an option for gaming on the go.

Toto also thinks Nintendo might raise prices across the board for Switch 2 games as well, meaning they could be priced at $70. Keep in mind the company has already hit this fee with Switch. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom officially cost $70, becoming the first Nintendo-developed game for the system to cost that much.
