In the morning: Let’s talk about switching 2 prices
Nintendo’s new console was finally revealed entirely, with a magnetic joy attachment, a new chat feature and a larger 7.9-inch screen with a higher RES that supports 120Hz and HDR.
Then there are new joys. Along with the larger SL and SR buttons made of metal, controllers can be excluded by pressing a more expressed back button. However, the great upgrade uses either Joy-Con as a mouse. (And even use them On your pantsif you want.)
Switch 2 also uses DLSS, so it’s easier to develop games to the hybrid console. In a very nintendo way, he doesn’t really talk about hardware specifics, so Nvidia had to fill in the gaps.
According to NVIDIA, responsible for the chip inside, the Switch 2 has a “ten times” graphic performance of the original. DLSS Tech means that the games can be presented with a smaller resolution, and the trained AI models and specialized tensor nuclei can be used to fill in additional details.
With this additional power, the SWITCH 2 supports up to 60 FPS at 4K resolution and 120 FPS at 1440p or 1080p resolutions, which are not made. The 1080p screen can process variable refresh speeds up to 120Hz in manual mode.
Yes, catching up for the last two decades, Switch 2 can also make a video chat (and voice chat but yawn). However, it requires a $ 50 sold camera. Boo.
I think this is hitting the price. The original switch was $ 300 at the start, the PS5 starts at $ 399 now. The 2 -dollar switch is $ 450. Of course, this includes the screen and (technical) two controllers, but it’s a little jump.
Is Nintendo factoring in the rates? Possibly. While some of us think $ 450 is pricing For the console itself, the costs crawl in each direction. I want the new There must be Mario Kart World? That’s $ 80 now. Meanwhile, the older games reissued on Switch 2 will also not be cheap. Cyberpunk 2077 Ring to $ 70. OOF.
If you want to expand the storage, well, you will need a microSD Express card, the faster, more price version of the small storage card. Need another couple of joy? This will be $ 90, please.
Want Pre -order Switch 2 before the start of June 5? We have all the details, but it is worth noting that Nintendo is trying to overtake scalpers by offering a special pre -order system for existing Heavy Switch users with an online switching subscription.
According to Nintendo: “Invitation emails will be prioritized first, the first service of registrants who purchased online membership in Nintendo Switch with a minimum of 12 months paid membership and a minimum of 50 total gameplay hour, as of April 2, 2025.”

Even more switch 2 things
Nintendo Switch 2 has a built -in voice chat and screenshine
Gamechat will be free of charge until March 31, 2026
Until we were able to try it at the early practical event, Voice Chat is an integral part of the new Nintendo console. By pressing the new button C on the correct Joy-Con, players can jump in Gamechat with friends and family. Nintendo demonstrates the feature during its recent Switch 2 Direct, along with a new Switch 2 camera, which also allows video chat, with a cut profile. It looks a lot like a Discord stream, with windows at the bottom of the screen for each chat participant. Up to four friends can share their screen and join a video chat if they own the Switch 2 camera.

The world’s smallest pacemaker is injected and powered by light
And it dissolves when no longer needed.
Engineers at the Northwestern University have developed the smallest pacemaker in the world. It’s so small that it fits into the top of a syringe. It is safely dissolved in the blood after a while, so this is a temporary solution. It is intended for people who need heart help in the short term, such as newborn babies with congenital defects. The pacemaker is paired with a wireless device mounted to the patient’s chest. When he finds an irregular pulse, he shines the light that activates the pacemaker.
