Despite the hype surrounding the Switch 2, some analysts predict the launch may fall in line with Nintendo's worst-selling console, the WiiU.

Though Nintendo has a history of discontinuing its older consoles without missing a beat, there's reason to believe this won't happen with the Switch.

The current Switch has its Joy-Con controllers attach by sliding through a railing on the side until a locking mechanism clicks them into place. Owners then press a very (very) small black button on the back to release the mechanism to slide them back out again.

Just like Nintendo has not yet announced the release date and retail price, the video game company hasn’t revealed where it will sell the new console.
