Nintendo Acknowledges Recent Nintendo Switch 2 Leaks

Nintendo has now officially responded to the numerous rumors about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 that have been circulating online.

After the recent CES event in Las Vegas, Nintendo acknowledged the news following Genki’s unveiling of supposed Nintendo Switch 2 models. However, Genki later clarified that the images they shared were based on leaked information rather than actually seeing the Switch 2.

Nevertheless, it appears these leaks have touched a sensitive spot at Nintendo, as they’ve admitted their existence in a rather unusual statement. In an interview with the Japanese site Sankei, Nintendo declared that “these pictures and clips aren’t legitimate.

As a dedicated gaming enthusiast, I can’t help but notice the widespread chatter about the Nintendo Switch 2, a subject that seems to be the industry’s best-kept secret. Details about the console itself, from its accessories and logos to its specifications, have been dripping out online like water through a sieve.

It’s unclear exactly when we’ll see the announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2, but with all the leaks about the console, it seems like it might happen sooner, rather than later.

Independent of when it’s unveiled and launched, Nintendo would be eagerly anticipating that the successor to the Switch performs as well as its predecessor did, which has already sold more than 146 million units up until now.

Among all Nintendo consoles, the Wii U is the one with lower sales figures, having moved approximately 13.56 million units. On the other hand, the Wii has been more successful with sales of over 100 million units, followed by the DS which sold around 154.02 million units. The Game Boy Advance also had impressive sales of 81.51 million units, while the original Game Boy was even more popular with sales of about 118.69 million units. The GameCube managed to sell around 21.74 million units, and the Nintendo 64 saw sales of approximately 32.93 million units. The SNES had an impressive run with sales of 49.10 million units, and the NES, Nintendo’s first console, holds the highest record for sales with 61.91 million units sold.
