4 Reasons to Wait for Nintendo Switch 2 & 3 Reasons Not To
Wait for a 2019 Nintendo Switch Refresh | ||||||||
 | ||||||||
Normally two years into a console life cycle you wouldn’t expect much of an upgrade, but signs are pointing to 2019 Nintendo Switch release that brings some new features. This may not be a console that is worth upgrading from the original Switch, but it may be worth waiting for especially if you consider yourself a hardcore gamer. We had heard about a smaller 2019 Nintendo Switch, but signs now point to a performance Nintendo Switch that delivers better specs and potentially better looking games and a cheaper model. It's unlikely that you will see exclusive games for the performance model, but you could see better graphics and better overall experiences. That's how Microsoft and Sony approach it currently. The catch with waiting is that you will likely need to wait until the holiday shopping season in 2019. That’s a half a year of waiting and of not playing new games on the Switch. If you have another system that’s do-able, but if you are still making due with a Wii U, PS3 or Xbox 360 it is a long wait. | ||||||||

“…might not be a full on Nintendo Switch 2.”
Might not? MIGHT NOT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? There is a ZERO percent chance we’re getting a Nintendo Switch 2 this year. Or next. Or the year after. There aren’t even REAL rumblings of a slight revision. And when there is a revision, you better believe it’ll be form factor, battery life, etc. It’s not going to be a new system that can play new games. There’s virtually no reason to wait if you WANT a Nintendo Switch. Obviously if you DON’T want it, then there’s no reason to get it.
Nintendo isn’t going to make a Nintendo Switch 2 for four to six years. So if anyone is actually waiting because they think there’s a Switch 2 in the way and this article isn’t COMPLETELY click bait nonsense, do yourself a favor and just get one.
