Reliable gaming insider NatetheHate has revealed new details about the Nintendo Switch 2's upcoming launch timeline. According to his podcast with ModernVintageGamer, Nintendo plans to unveil their next-generation console through a hardware-focused announcement.

Expected Nintendo Switch 2 Timeline for 2025:

• Initial Reveal: January 16 (hardware only)
• Software Showcase: Late February
• Retail Demos: March/April
• Public Demos: May (PAX East and other events)
• Launch: Late May/early June

The initial reveal is expected to showcase:

• System design
• New Joy-Con controllers
• Packaging preview
• Possible demo using existing game footage

Former Nintendo employees Kit and Krysta have corroborated this information, citing NatetheHate's reliable track record. The timing appears strategic, following Nvidia's RTX 5090 announcement and avoiding overlap with other major tech news.

Pricing details are likely to be withheld until closer to launch, potentially May or June 2025. Nintendo is expected to maintain support for the original Switch, which has remained "very stable" since its 2017 release, ensuring a smooth transition between console generations.
