Briefing: A new Nintendo Switch 2 could be the poster child for replaceable batteries

Editorial Staff · March 20, 2026 · 1 min read

Nintendo's forthcoming Switch 2 revision will introduce user-replaceable batteries, a significant shift from the current model, which has a glued-in battery design.

This change is expected to improve the device's longevity and reduce electronic waste, aligning with broader industry trends toward sustainability.

The revised Switch 2 is anticipated to launch in the European Union on March 20, 2026, according to reports from Nikkei.
