While Nintendo seems content to wait some more before announcing the Nintendo Switch 2, accessories manufacturers aren’t pleased about the system still being kept under wraps, and some have started revealing more about the highly anticipated console.
Accessories manufacturer Genki is showcasing its Nintendo Switch 2 accessories lineup at CES 2025, and reputable French publication Numerama had the chance to check out a mock-up of the system reportedly based on a real system the manufacturer owns and how the new magnetic Joy-Con controllers work. The new mock-up also confirms a bigger size over the original console and a second USB-C port on the top of the console.

Following the report from Numerama, Genki decided to go all-in with the early Nintendo Switch 2 reveal by adding a short video on its official website showcasing the full unit and the dock. While there’s no way to verify if everything is indeed based on the real system or on other mock-ups, there’s a solid chance the video is showing the real console, given how pretty much everything about it is leaking online.
Genki isn’t the only Nintendo Switch 2 accessories manufacturer showing its upcoming products during CES 2025, and Numerama spoke with some of them, who all seem to agree that the system will launch in April. According to some of these manufacturers, it is possible to even purchase the console already on the black market, which, as Numerama highlights, sounds like a bold claim considering nothing has leaked regarding software.
With new leaks and rumors sprouting like mushrooms almost daily, the only thing that is left is for Nintendo to finally announce the Nintendo Switch 2. When the reveal will happen not even these chatty manufacturers know, but with all these daily leaks, it shouldn’t be too far off in the future.
