Rumors of a Nintendo Switch 2 have been circulating for some time, but as we get closer to the June launch (that is, if the successor to the original Swatch is not delayed until next year), the rumors are becoming more and more real. New rumors about everything from screen size to backwards compatibility have surfaced, fueling expectations of what Nintendo has in store.

Let's start with the Joy-Cons controller. According to earlier reports, the Joy-Cons controller would offer a new controller connection. Further details were revealed via IGN, courtesy of third-party manufacturer Mobapad, corroborating reports about the new Joy-Cons reported by Spanish publication Vandal last week.

According to that report, the Joy-Cons will be larger than the current version and will change the way they connect to the Switch. Instead of the current sliding rail, it appears that an electromagnetic suction system will be used.

Additionally, the SL and SR buttons will be made of metal, and new buttons are said to be added to the controller, though it is unclear what they will be.

As for current controllers, Mobapad reports that existing Joy-Con and Pro controllers will work with the Nintendo Switch 2. Additionally, the cartridge slots will work with current games, although it is unclear if games made for the Switch 2 will work on the older Nintendo handheld.

Here is what else is known.

Leaked information indicates that the Switch 2 will be larger than the current generation, and the screen is rumored to be upgraded to an 8-inch display with 1080p resolution. The current Switch's screen is 7 inches and supports 1080p only when docked.

Also, according to these new reports, the dock will also change slightly, with the next-generation dock allowing 4K resolution.

Interestingly, Mobapad reports that the new dock will feature a damping bracket on the back that will allow for "a wider range of adjustable angles." It is unclear what purpose this feature will serve. The current Switch dock is like a small toaster that simply holds the Switch in place. Nevertheless, there are third-party docks in a smaller form that do not have walls covering the Switch.
