Though the Nintendo Switch 2 is about two months away from launch, we may not be able to use all of its advertised features on day one.
Now that everyone is a bit more sober after yesterday’s massive Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, it’s time to dig through the press releases and read the fine print. Shortly after the show’s conclusion, Nintendo updated its various regional websites with more details on the hardware and some of the console’s new features.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t sound like all everything we got to hear about will be immediately accessible out of the box.
The big Nintendo Switch 2 press release on Nintendo’s corporate website offers a few more details on several of the new features coming with the new console, such as GameChat. More importantly, it lists all the major hardware specs (though without specifics).
One thing that stands out, however, is that two of them will not be available out of the box, and will instead require an update.
