NINTENDO SWITCHES THINGS UP

Gaming specialists who have handled Nintendo’s new Switch 2 say the console is a clear upgrade on its predecessor, but it lacks many have new features and the progress contest is a steep price.

Dozens of European journalists were invited to the Grand Palais exhibition space in Paris last week for a preview in one of two events held globally.

They were allowed to briefly after the Kyoto-based company announced the hotly awaited launch of its latest iteration of the Switch for June 5 in a YouTube presentation watched by millions around the world.

“This console feels very good in your hands, very slight,” said Nicolas Demmler from the French specialists gaming website jeuxvideo.com after handling the much-hyped successor.

The Switch 2 retains the core features of the original that made it such a hit: detachable “Joy-Con” controllers and hybrid functionality that means it can be portable or plugged into a screen or projector.
