If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. This seems to have been Nintendo’s watchword for the Switch 2 — and not just in terms of the design of this iterative sequel to the Switch, a runaway success that’s likely to become Nintendo’s biggest seller ever.

TOKYO (Reuters) -Nintendo's Switch 2 launched on Thursday and is widely expected to be in short supply globally amid pent-up demand for the more powerful next-generation gaming device. "The level of demand seems to be sky-high," said Serkan Toto, founder of the Kantan Games consultancy.

Nintendo Co. is opening sales of the Switch 2 today, and shoppers are scouting out stores to increase their chances of getting a hold of the $450 console.
