![[Nintendo Switch 2] Sleepless Nights with Kaname Date – AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Review](https://www.thegamerpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Nintendo-Switch-2-Sleepless-Nights-with-Kaname-Date-–-AI-360x180.jpg)
Alright, so here’s the deal. Nintendo, the big N, is making a comeback to Gamescom in 2025. They skipped out last year, and honestly, who knows why. Maybe they were busy? Or just wanted some time off? Anyway, mark your calendars — the dates are August 20-24, and yes, it’s in Cologne. Ever been? I hear it’s nice, especially this Koelnmesse place where the magic will happen.
Oh! And there’s this thing before the big show kicks off – a pre-party of sorts? Opening Night Live on August 19. Probably like the appetizer before the main course, right?
Now, speaking of courses, Nintendo’s got this whole racing thing lined up with Mario Kart World. Picture this: 24 players all going at it. Madness, but the fun kind. And with the Nintendo Switch 2 coming out, they’re aiming to get these into as many hands as possible. Maybe they’ll sweeten the deal with fancy races? Or maybe that’s just wishful thinking.
Predicting surprises at the show? Ha! Your guess is as good as mine. But they’ve got a lineup for early-bird buyers of the new console — Donkey Kong Bananza, Drag x Drive, and a couple of jazzy Mario and Kirby titles. Sounds like a decent mix.
Mark June 5, 2025, folks. The Nintendo Switch 2 hits the shelves. Price? Ah, the nitty-gritty: £395.99 in the UK, €469.99 in Europe, and $449.99 if you’re stateside. Not exactly pocket change, but hey, new toys usually aren’t.
And there’s a trailer out there somewhere if you’re curious. No clue if it’s earth-shattering, but hey, it’s Nintendo. Anyway, I’ve yammered on enough. Whatever you end up doing, Nintendo-wise or not, have fun with it. Cheers!
