Switch 2 Delayed... What Now?

Switch 2 Delayed... What Now?

Author: Last Stand Media & Studio71 February 22, 2024 Duration: 2:00:55
Nintendo fans have received some bad news: Nintendo’s next console, originally expected to release later this year, has been internally delayed to early 2025. While the reasoning may be sound, pointing to creating a better lineup of launch games, it’s still disappointing for those of us who are waiting. In the meantime, though, Nintendo still has other things to show us in the here and now, most notably with a new Partner Direct. Brad joins the crew this week to discuss all the news while Dagan is away, and you don’t want to miss it. Enjoy!
