At CES 2025, Genki unveiled a physical Switch 2 replica, offering insights into its potential design. This purported replica suggests a larger console than its predecessor, with side-detaching Joy-Cons. This departure from the original Switch's sliding mechanism potentially confirms magnetic attachment rumors, though a secondary locking mechanism is speculated. The right Joy-Con also displays an unlabeled extra button.
Genki's presentation wasn't a public unveiling, but rather a behind-closed-doors showcase for prospective buyers of their upcoming Switch 2 accessories. The company plans to release eight accessories in total, encompassing controllers and the dock. No release date information for the Switch 2 itself was shared.
The replica, described as having "exact" dimensions, provides the most concrete visual representation yet of the rumored Switch 2 hardware, lending credence to previous leaks. The increased size is notable, with the screen potentially rivaling that of the Lenovo Legion Go. The growing number of credible leaks suggests an official Nintendo announcement may be imminent, eagerly awaited by fans, developers, and publishers alike.
