Nintendo has finally followed through on the promise that it would tell us more about the Switch 2 in April. During a mammoth hour-long Nintendo Direct, it unveiled a whole heap of details, including that all-important release date: 5 June.
The console will launch at $449.99 in the US, AUD$699.95 in Australia and £395.99 in the UK when pre-orders go live on 9 April. That's a bit more than many people were hoping in the US, about what we expected in the UK, and a chunk more than the $299.99 launch price of the original Switch.
