Nintendo Co. shares have soared to a series of records in anticipation of its Switch 2 console, making the upcoming reveal of the gadget’s details a potential watershed.The stakes are high for the unveiling of the console on Wednesday,

Nintendo is holding a Nintendo Direct livestream at 9 a.m. ET on Wednesday, April 2 to tell us (presumably) everything we want to know about Switch 2. You will be able to watch it

When Nintendo first unveiled the Switch 2 via a short teaser video in January, it felt the need to include a few seconds of footage of exactly one new video game running on the console: a new Mario Kart. This will be, numerically speaking, the ninth one, but it's very possible Nintendo calls it something other than Mario Kart 9.

Right now, the main things we know about the Switch 2 hardware that distinguish it from the original Switch are that it's bigger and has more horsepower inside. The widespread expectation is that it will be roughly as powerful as a PlayStation 4 Pro or maybe even a Steam Deck, possibly with the ability to upscale games to 4K using DLSS technology.

Clip your overalls, put on your caps, and strap in: Nintendo’s big Switch 2 reveal is upon us. Below you can find out how to watch the Switch 2 Direct and everything else you should know about Nintendo’s plans for the new console this week.

It's been months since the announcement, but Nintendo is finally giving a closer look at the Switch 2. A Nintendo Direct stream starts April 2 at 9:00 a.m. ET that will reveal new details about the upcoming system.

Nintendo Direct is going to be the can’t-miss showcase of the season, but I'm just ready for the rumors to finally relent.
