Nintendo’s new model of the Nintendo Switch, which comes with a larger OLED screen and a redesigned dock, is available for pre-order starting Thursday, July 15th. Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) will be at 3 p.m. EDT / 12 p.m. PDT at select retailers, Nintendo announced on Thursday.
So far the list of retailers includes (or probably will) online stores like Amazon, Best buy, GameStop, aim, and Walmart.
The Nintendo Switch OLED model is priced at $ 349.99 and comes in two colors: one with white joy-cons and a white dock, and the other with the Switch’s traditional red and blue joy-cons and a black dock. Aside from the larger screen – it’s 7 inches, slightly larger than the 6.2-inch screen on the original Switch – and increased internal storage (now 64GB), the new Switch is almost identical to its predecessor and features the same processor , the same output resolution and battery life.
