"Nintendo Switch 2 Release Delayed to March 2025 to Prevent Scalping and Shortages"

The release of the Nintendo Switch 2 is reportedly delayed until March 2025 to combat scalping and ensure enough launch stock to satisfy demand. With the current Switch sales declining, Nintendo aims to maximize hardware sales and continue to appeal to consumers. The new console is expected to be a Switch successor with similar hybrid functionality and a larger screen, but it remains uncertain whether it will be backwards compatible with the existing Switch.
