The lovingly titled Nintendo Switch (OLED model) has a very similar overall size to the Nintendo Switch console, but with a larger, vibrant 7-inch OLED screen with vivid colours and high contrast. It also features a wide adjustable stand for tabletop mode, a new dock with a wired LAN port for stable online play, 64GB of internal storage, and onboard speakers with enhanced audio for handheld and tabletop play.
Just like the standard Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch (OLED model) allows users to play on the TV and share the detachable Joy-Con controllers for the familiar out-of-the-box multiplayer fun. The new Switch comes in two colours — a version with the standard Neon Red and Blue Joy-Con and a black LAN dock and a new variant with white Joy-Con and white LAN dock.
Nintendo Switch (OLED model) launches on 8th October 2021 — the same day as Metroid Dread — and it is priced at £309.99 / $349.99. Do you plan on picking one up?
