1/6

A promotional image for the Nintendo Switch 2, featuring two hands holding the console in different colors—one in light blue and the other in red. The screen displays vibrant gameplay, showcasing a colorful platformer scene. Above the consoles, text reads, "Plays Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive games, as well as Nintendo Switch games." Below, a note explains compatibility with physical and digital Nintendo Switch games. In the center, a game cartridge is shown, labeled with the Nintendo Switch logo. The background is a soft gradient, transitioning from blue to red, enhancing the modern and playful aesthetic typical of Nintendo's branding.

like your product shouldn't need a number printed huge on it to show that it's a newer model. apple don't do this (tho they do just keep the same design lol)

A close-up view of the Nintendo Switch 2 console, prominently displaying the device alongside its matching dock. The console features a sleek black design with a prominent "Nintendo Switch 2" logo on the front. The left Joy-Con is black with a blue joystick, while the right Joy-Con is black with an orange joystick, showcasing a modern color scheme. The dock behind the console has a similar matte finish, emphasizing the streamlined aesthetics. The background features a vibrant gradient transitioning from blue to red, enhancing the contemporary and playful vibe typical of Nintendo's branding.

not to mention that these black colours are literally killing the switch's entire branding.

i know the 2017 switch had a grey version, but it still had a great brand design, this one seems to be piggybacking off of the Switch 1 branding with this new (ugly) hardware.
3/6

Nintendo Switch 2, the controllers and edges of the device/controllers are very rounded, and the general colour is grey, other than a bit of blue and red as controller highlights.

lol it'll be funny if they do use the switch (1) branding too, since these controllers come off in a completely different manner.

but this was just TOO good. why kill it?

i don't work at nintendo or anything obvs, but they could've kept the original shell but upgraded the internal specs, etc.. or come up with some entirely new console.
5/6

Red and Blue Nintendo Switch (2017)
