Nintendo Switch 2 release date got leaked

[LNLenost]

During CES 2024, a company by the name of Altec Lansing may have accidentaly revealed the release of the Nintendo Switch 2.

During this company's press-release, they said that they've been working on AI-shark and they want to rebrand the former Gameshark software through this.

However, at a certain point they said this:

“The innovative gaming software is set to mark a significant leap forward in the gaming experience, bringing enhanced gameplay for beginner-level users. The official launch is planned to coincide with the Nintendo Switch 2 in September 2024.”

But according to Bloomberg's Jason Schreier's tweet, it's just a rumor.

It seems unlikely company that makes unlicensed chat devices for consoles would have any insider information like this.

While this "leak" might be nonsense, I think it's still no secret, that it will be "at the end of this year".

You obv didn't even read your own post. It's only a rumor and we do not know the month of release yet!

Do you think Nintendo is dumb and CASUALLY before a game releases someone leaks it? CASUALLY in 2015 they put the icon of TLOZ:TP HD in the E-Shop files? CASUALLY Gameshark knows the release of Nintendo Switch 2? It's all made on purpose, even game leaks.

We can't even go one whole year without a Nintendo Switch 2/PRO release rumor, can we?

Yeah thats better

I'm fine with my Switch Lite, thank you.

Also, Switch 2 would probably not be the final name, and its kinda confusing since its used to describe the V2 models. Something along the lines of New Nintendo Switch?

Well yeah, that's why it's a "leak" and not a "confirmation". We won't know the exact month with 100% certainty until Nintendo formally announces it; but a September 2024 release lines up with the obvious winding down of the Switch and the ever increasing volume of leaks coming out about the thing. It's good business; release TOTK and Mario Wonder as the last major hurrahs to squeeze a few more sales out of the Switch. Give the gaming community a year or so to cool down while releasing a few experiential titles and easy cash-grabs. Then come out roaring right before the holidays with the Switch 2 and a new blockbuster 3D Mario.

This is less than a rumor, the source literally said they just made it up.

 

[NEILYOUNG]

rumours i love it

There's no way the Switch 2 isn't out by Christmas.

 

[SylverReZ]

Rumours are just simply rumours. Its likely fake.

It's likely true. They will reveal something next month which gives them 5-6 months to launch the thing.

I say they could still save it for Xmas 2025.
