Nintendo Switch 2 Rumors Highlight Major Design and Feature Upgrades

Leaks suggest the upcoming console will address Joy-Con drift, feature magnetic controllers, and include a more powerful dock.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is rumored to feature Hall effect joysticks in its Joy-Con controllers, which are designed to eliminate the stick drift issue seen in the original Switch.
Leaked details indicate the Joy-Cons will attach magnetically to the console, replacing the previous rail system, and include larger buttons for improved usability.
The dock for the Switch 2 is reportedly rated for 60W power, suggesting enhanced performance in docked mode, possibly enabling 4K output at 30 FPS.
The console is expected to have a larger 8-inch screen, a sturdier U-shaped kickstand, and two USB-C ports, with one potentially supporting accessories like headphones.
Nintendo has confirmed an official announcement for the Switch 2 by March 31, 2025, with speculation pointing to a January reveal.
