When will Nintendo's long-fabled Nintendo Switch 2 come out? Soon, according to SoldierDelta, a proven games leaker, who shared new information from his sources about how the next-generation Nintendo console will be out as soon as September 24 next year, with early November as a fall-back date. While there isn't much in the way of hardware details, SoldierDelta has claimed that the console will be available in two models—a standard model for $449 US and digital-only model for $400 US—and that it'll also carry AR features.

Not sure what you mean. Xbox Series S is digital-only because the only way you can get games is to download them. You can't use blu-ray discs to install games like you can on Xbox Series X.

The Switch is not a digital-only console, it also supports cartridges. So you can go with physical media or digital download. The Switch 2 article is saying that there might be a Switch 2 model that does NOT use physical media of any kind. It would be a digital-only model, which means you have to download games.
