The Nintendo Switch (OLED model) arrives on October 8 and will cost $349USD or $449CAN. It features 64GB of internal storage and a 7” OLED screen with a slimmer bezel. The large screen's vivid colors and high contrast deliver a rich handheld and tabletop gaming experience. It features a wide adjustable stand that can be set to your preferred viewing angle for comfortable gameplay in tabletop mode. The Dock is upgraded as well, with two USB ports, a HDMI port for connecting to a TV and a new wired LAN port.

Antix @Antix64: It’s a brilliant purchase for anyone who’s interested in getting a Switch for the first time. The OLED screen is nice, but otherwise there’s not much incentive to upgrade from my current system, especially with the rival consoles out now.

ARGO @ARGO_227: No Bluetooth, no processing upgrade, only 64g storage - makes it a hard pass for me. I’m assuming this will just replace the current model. But if they are working on a ‘pro’, shouldn’t they have announced they are to keep people informed if they want to buy this or wait..

Some nice improvements, but it doesn't match up with all the wild Switch Pro rumors for the last few years. Still though, those were just rumors and on the whole I'm cool with this new version. I'll have a more concise opinion after hearing more in-depth details about it.

If you don’t have a need for another Switch might be a harder sell. But if you do need to add an extra Switch to the family it’s a no brainer in my opinion. As my son has pretty much stole mine…I have a good excuse for a little upgrade that I am more than happy with!

Not too exciting for a current Switch owner who already hardly plays Switch. The black and white color scheme is pretty nice though.

Essential Josh @JoshBones

Looks cool. I'm pretty shocked it's not graphically improved at all though. I wonder what the price point will be .
