Nintendo Switch 2 finally revealed?
For many months now, the gaming community has been impatiently awaiting the arrival of Nintendo's new console, successor to the legendary Switch. As a result, the slightest tweet containing the word Nintendo, the slightest photo of a portable console closely or remotely resembling a Switch, the slightest technical diagram of a console, the slightest mention of the “Switch 2” by an influencer is closely scrutinized and gives rise to numerous speculations and other fantasies.
But today, a step seems to have been taken since we received, live from CES in Las Vegas, what would be one of the first visuals of the next Nintendo machine. It's a console accessory manufacturer (Genki, not to name it) who allegedly spilled the beans to our German colleagues from Netzwelt and you can therefore admire the beast in the photo below.
First observation, Nintendo's next console looks a lot like a first switch of the name, but bigger. It's not yet known if the colors will be the same, but Nintendo seems to have stuck with the idea of detachable Joy-Cons.

In short, and if this leak really reveals what the new Switch will be, the latter will not really be a revolution like the Game Boy, the DS, or the Switch were, in their time.
Nintendo taken by the throat?
Needless to say, and if the images clearly show the long-awaited gadget, we must be starting to get a little on edge in the Big N offices. According to our Digital colleagues on site, the Genki stand is closed and it is no longer possible to see the famous leak. We also wish good luck to Genki's legal services in handling the situation with Nintendo, little known for its magnanimity. However, the Japanese giant risks having other fish to fry, since according to insidersthis final leak would be the straw that would ignite the powder and the Kyoto firm would be preparing to reveal its new console much more quickly than expected to put an end to all the rumors.
We are therefore waiting for the official announcement, which we have never been so close to.
