This is the console-only version, which includes the Nintendo Switch 2 with its dock, two Joy-Cons and a Joy-Con-slottable controller, but no games. We were quite impressed when we went hands-on with the Nintendo Switch 2, noting that the console feels much more premium than the first generation device.

What’s new with the Nintendo Switch 2?
The Nintendo Switch 2 is a bigger and more powerful console than its predecessor, which was released in 2017. It has a huge 7.9-inch 120Hz 1080p LCD display (bigger than the 7-inch screen on the Switch OLED).
But the screen's not the only thing that's gotten an upgrade. The Joy-Cons now magnetically attach to the console, and just like the original Switch, the gamepad can be slotted into a docking station to project your gameplay onto a TV or monitor.
The controllers are fundamentally the same as when the Switch first debuted, apart from four changes. The aforementioned magnetism, an extra trigger on the backside, a new button on the front for Game Chat (a quick tool for communicating with friends in-game) and the ability to convert the controller into a mouse on the fly.
A 5,220mAh battery is built-in with 256GB default storage and a MicroSD Express card slot, allowing for up to 1TB of extra space. As for performance, the Switch 2 uses a new custom chip by Nvidia which reportedly allows for up to 10x the graphical performance vs the OG Switch.
DLSS and ray tracing are also possible on the new console, though this will be reserved for graphically-intense games like Hogwarts Legacy and Cyberpunk 2077. Select original Switch games will be getting upgrades to match the Switch 2’s performance, and most Nintendo Switch games (including those on cartridges) will be compatible with the new console.
