Anniversary: 8 Years Since Nintendo Unveiled Switch, The World Awaits The Next Reveal

As we pass the eight-year mark of Switch’s reveal, Nintendo fans are on tenterhooks as we wait for the reveal of Nintendo’s next system, of which we’ve heard nary a whisper – officially, anyhow. Unofficially, the internet has been abuzz with Switch 2 rumours for literal years, and Nintendo has promised an unveiling “this fiscal year”.

If the leaks are true, we already have a pretty good idea what the console will be, but until Nintendo finally pulls back the curtain we still have no clue exactly what secrets it holds.

It’s been a ride since 2016, with the reversal of fortunes Switch brought following the quiet Wii U years and all the brilliant games the console has brought us. Take a look at the list below to remind yourself if the last eight years are a bit of a blur – and let us know in the comments if you think Switch 2’s reveal stands a chance of matching up to its predecessor.
