Nintendo Switch 2 announced but I’ll wait until homebrew is possible
Nintendo has officially announced the Nintendo Switch 2, set to launch in 2025. With promises of exclusive games, enhanced hardware, and backward compatibility with most Nintendo Switch titles, the new console is sure to attract attention. However, for some gamers, including myself, the real question is how easily the system will support homebrew development.
The original Nintendo Switch became iconic not just for its innovative design but for how quickly the homebrew community embraced it. Unlocking the system to run custom software, emulators, and other non-official programs was surprisingly easy. This ability allowed users to customize their consoles and experience gaming in a whole new way. For many, the possibility of running homebrew made the system even more appealing.
