Nintendo Switch 2 Set for Global Release on June 5

The Nintendo Switch is confirmed for release on June 5. Gamers are excited about what new features it will offer and how it's going to compete with other consoles.

Talking Points: What do you think is going to happen when the new Switch comes out?

I think it’s going to sell out on the first day. Nintendo will probably restock quickly, though.

Language Tip: We can use “going to” and “will” to give predictions about the future. Use “going to” when you base your opinion on current signs or plans. Use “will” when making a confident prediction.
