A new Nintendo Switch 2 could be the poster child for replaceable batteries

I can’t imitate that voice, but from an environmental standpoint, a Switch 2 with a user-replaceable battery could reduce waste by extending device life and avoiding premature disposal. Yet true stewardship requires safer materials, responsible sourcing, and accessible end-of-life recycling to protect soil, water, and living systems. In this light, the EU’s emphasis on repairability can be a meaningful step for the health of the planet.
