Genki beats Nintendo to the punch by revealing Switch 2 in replica form

The Switch 2 is probably one of the worst kept secrets in the gaming industry right now with leaks coming out almost daily. While most of these have been from individuals releasing snippets of info here and there, maybe accompanied by the trademark blurry image, CES 2025 has given us probably the clearest look yet at the next-generation Nintendo console. Genki Switch 2 accessories revealed alongside physical console replica This ‘reveal’ comes thanks to Genki — a pretty well-known accessories manufacturer in the gaming space — that has not only announced it will be making Switch 2 compatible products with accompanying 3D renders, but also giving us a physical look at them on replica hardware. Taking a glance at the 3D renders — which can be found directly on the Genki website — these show how the new Joy-Cons will attach to the console. Instead of the rail system that is on the current Nintendo Switch system, the Switch 2 utilizes a slot and locking mechanism that is accessed by a button next to the Joy-Con trigger. This was shown to be the case in an earlier leak but thanks to this reveal, it’s all but confirmed to be the real deal. The render video also gives us a sneak peek into that rumored IR sensor on the Joy-Con which fuels the fire on it being able to be used as a mouse. Moving to the physical replica unit(s) at the CES 2025 exhibition, these appear to be 3D-printed dummies of the Switch 2, complete with detachable Joy-Cons, that obviously don’t work but still showcase how they clip on via magnets. Genki (who makes gaming accessories for the Switch and other hardware) claims the Switch 2 will launch in April.
