If the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn’t have an OLED screen at launch, I’m waiting for its follow up

Just about every Nintendo fan, and their mom, is gearing up for the official reveal of the Nintendo Switch follow-up, and I’m no different. Every stern warning from Nintendo that there ‘will be no mention of the Switch successor’ in its most recent sea of Direct presentations has only made my anticipation grow. The never-ending rumors and leaks surrounding its suspected hardware upgrades, which have been circling for what feels like an eternity, have only made things worse.

Even the idea that we could see double the RAM at 8GB for the Switch 2 is enough to make me salivate at the mouth. However, it’s the upcoming console’s display that has me excited more than anything else. It’s highly likely we’ll see a bigger screen this time around. As someone who mostly plays the Switch in handheld mode, that’s an exciting prospect. Putting out a bigger screen has also been a common practice with every new gaming handheld Nintendo has released. But if that bigger screen isn’t an OLED display at launch, I may just hold out for something greater.
