Feature: The Results Of Our 2026 Switch 2 Summer Survey Are In
Nintendo Life has released the results of its 2026 Switch 2 Summer Survey, which gathered responses from readers on gaming habits and preferences following the console’s launch. The survey included 64 gaming-related questions covering topics such as gaming habits, thoughts on Switch 2 and its software lineup, how consumers purchase games in 2026, and reader engagement with Nintendo content.
This survey follows a similar initiative conducted in 2024, allowing Nintendo Life to track changes in reader attitudes and behaviors over time. With more than a year having passed since Switch 2’s release, the 2026 survey was designed to capture player perspectives on the new hardware and their expectations for future game releases and platform developments.
Among the findings referenced in the survey results, reader interest in a Kid Icarus revival was highlighted as a notable takeaway. The comprehensive survey data provides insights into the current state of Nintendo’s gaming community, including purchasing preferences, gaming habits, and anticipated titles that readers hope to see on the Switch 2 platform. The results offer a snapshot of how Nintendo fans are engaging with the latest hardware and what franchises and experiences they prioritize.
