The excitement is palpable as the release of the Nintendo Switch 2 draws near in 2025. Fans are buzzing with anticipation, and some keen observers have already caught a glimpse of what might be the final design of this much-awaited console. Dive deeper to uncover the latest on this upcoming handheld marvel.
Nintendo Switch 2 Features The New C Button
Functionality Will Be Revealed During the Direct
With the Nintendo Switch 2 set to launch in 2025 and a Nintendo Direct scheduled for today, April 2nd, the gaming community is abuzz with excitement. While the Direct promises to unveil more about the Switch 2, it seems Nintendo might have already dropped some hints about the console's features, including the intriguing new C button.
Nintendo has recently launched a smartphone app named "Nintendo Today," designed to deliver the latest news and game information directly to your device. Observant fans have noticed that the app's promotional images on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store feature the Switch 2, prominently displaying a message that reads, "Get updates on Nintendo Switch 2 news plus game info, videos, comics, and more every day."
A closer look at these images reveals what appears to be the final design of the Nintendo Switch 2, complete with newly designed Joycons and the confirmation of the mysterious C button on the right Joycon. Initially, the teaser in January showed a black square beneath the Home button, sparking speculation about its purpose—ranging from a new social feature to an innovative sensor. However, with the final design showcased in the Nintendo Today app, it's now clear that this is indeed a C button. The exact functionality of this button is expected to be revealed during the upcoming Nintendo Direct.
