Nintendo revealed its eagerly anticipated Switch 2 console on Thursday, exciting gamers and offering the video game industry a potential bright spot amid a broader slowdown.

Toward the end of the Switch 2 reveal video, a date of April 2 was shown for the Nintendo Direct about the new console. Nintendo didn't provide much info about the Switch 2 so those excited about the new console have a lot of questions that will hopefully be answered in the Nintendo Direct.

There’s a new button under the home button on the right Joy-Con, which had shown up in leaks. The video also appears to show the Joy-Cons being used similarly to a mouse. And the SL and SR buttons on the Joy-Cons are bigger than they are on the original Switch’s Joy-Cons.
