The decision appears in an updated company FAQ that also covers battery changes across its current hardware lineup.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-249284\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"Switch 1 is DEAD in Europe!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UHW66m0CNIg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"Switch 1 is DEAD in Europe!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UHW66m0CNIg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>Since the release of the original Switch in March 2017, the three models have served as Nintendo\u2019s primary portable and home gaming range. In 2019, the Lite version was released as a smaller, less expensive option that did not include detachable controllers. The OLED Model was introduced in 2021, featuring a larger, higher-quality screen and enhanced acoustics. All three will continue to ship from manufacturers until the end of 2026, so stores around Europe should still have plenty of stock for the majority of next year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal\" data-aawp-product-asin=\"B0GZ5DFHC5\" data-aawp-product-id=\"241653\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"tec02e-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Nintendo Switch 2  Choose Your Game Bundle\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41TMLjVS53L._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"Nintendo Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n<p>            Nintendo Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle        <\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n<ul>\n<li>Kick off the fun with a Nintendo Switch 2 system, your choice of a select digital game, and a savings* of up to $29.99!<\/li>\n<li>Includes choice of either the Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, or Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia digital game download<\/li>\n<li>One system, three play modes: TV, Tabletop, and Handheld<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nFrom mid-February 2027 onward, the company will simply discontinue shipping new units to retailers or selling them directly. The cutoff was clearly stated in Nintendo\u2019s support pages: the original Switch family would no longer be available from retailers or the Nintendo Store in the region after that date. The time is almost exactly ten years after the system\u2019s initial debut.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Nintendo Switch 2 VS Nintendo Switch 1 In 2026\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C6r71c_IfqU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"Nintendo Switch 2 VS Nintendo Switch 1 In 2026\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/C6r71c_IfqU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>The change is the result of new European Union legislation requiring many electrical products to use replaceable batteries. Those rules will go into force around February 18, 2027. Nintendo has already begun updating their newer items to match this requirement. Later this year, Nintendo will release revised Switch 2 consoles with user-replaceable batteries, as well as upgraded Joy-Con 2 controllers and other accessories. The previous Switch models did not get the same updates. Nintendo decided not to update them with changeable batteries and instead established a definite date to discontinue sales in Europe. According to the company, current versions of the Switch 2 and accompanying accessories will work similarly to the upgraded versions, with the addition of a repair option.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Nintendo Switch 2 vs OLED Switch vs Switch Lite vs Original  - Which Switch To Buy in 2026? \ud83c\udfae\ud83e\udd13\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4am8EGTsdhk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"Nintendo Switch 2 vs OLED Switch vs Switch Lite vs Original  - Which Switch To Buy in 2026? \ud83c\udfae\ud83e\udd13\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4am8EGTsdhk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>Existing Switch owners will see no immediate change. Nintendo stated that support for games, accessories, the eShop, and online services will continue for the foreseeable future. The majority of new first-party releases have already been shifted to the Switch 2 platform, while shoppers looking to purchase a brand-new original Switch, Lite, or OLED Model after early 2027 will have to rely on remaining supplies in retailers or resort to the used market.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- \u603b\u5bb9\u5668\uff1a\u6700\u5927\u5bbd908px Grid\u7d27\u51d1\u5e03\u5c40 -->\r\n<div style=\"display: grid;
