The gaming world is abuzz with speculation about the Nintendo Switch successor. While Nintendo remains tight-lipped, a potential leak from peripheral manufacturer Satisfye may have given us our first glimpse of the new console. A quickly deleted video showcasing the company’s new Zengrip 2 accessory appears to feature the rumored “Switch 2,” albeit in a blurry and partially obscured view.
The leak originated on X (formerly Twitter), where user @1DaP_PaD1 (DP19) shared screenshots of the now-removed video. While the images are far from clear, the console’s general shape seems remarkably similar to the current Nintendo Switch model. However, keen-eyed observers have pointed out a possible “extra button” on the Joy-Cons, aligning with rumors circulating online.
The blurry nature of the images makes definitive conclusions difficult. The presence of the Zengrip 2 accessory further obscures details, leaving room for interpretation and speculation. Nevertheless, the leak has fueled excitement and anticipation within the gaming community.
Satisfye’s website lists the Zengrip 2 with an anticipated spring 2025 shipping date. (Satisfye’s website) This doesn’t necessarily confirm a simultaneous Switch 2 release, but it aligns with Nintendo’s fiscal year end in March 2025, a timeframe often associated with major announcements.
Nintendo’s traditional secrecy surrounding hardware releases only adds to the fervor. While this potential leak offers tantalizing hints, concrete information about the next-generation Switch remains elusive. Fans eagerly await official news from Nintendo, hoping for confirmation and further details about the console’s design, features, and release date.
