Nintendo Announces Their Next Console In The Form Of The Nintendo Switch 2

After what seems to be a lifetime, Nintendo has finally revealed the next generation Switch with a snazzy new trailer. The Nintendo Switch 2 comes in a new colour way with the main body of the console and joycons coming in a matte black with hints of Mario red and blue around the thumb sticks and where the joycons connect to the switch itself.

Nintendo also confirmed that the console will be able to play both physical and digital Switch 2 and Switch games, however not all games will be compatible at launch. Hopefully more games will become available on the console over time.

Lastly, Nintendo confirmed they’ll be showing off more of the Switch 2 at an upcoming Nintendo Direct that will be held on 2nd of April 2025. We’ll most likely get a closer look at what games to expect coming to the console, specifications of the Switch 2 and what current Nintendo Switch games that’ll work on the new hardware.

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl and Pokémon Legends: Arceus Release Dates Announced

The Pokémon Company and Nintendo have announced the release dates for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl remakes and Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

Let's kicks things off with Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl remakes, which will be launching this year on November 19, 2021, for Nintendo Switch. It's a pretty predictable release date but I'm excited to return the diamond and pearl games.

When it comes to Pokémon Legends: Arceus, That game will release on January 28, 2022, on the Nintendo Switch. I'm not entirely sure if this game will hit this date, it seems a little too soon in my opinion. I could be completely wrong and maybe the scale of the game is smaller than I have in mind. regardless I can't wait to have more Pokemon games in my life.
