A user on Chinese social network Bilibili has uploaded a relatively blurry video of what he claims to be Joy-Cons for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 system. The video attempts to highlight some of the differences compared to the current Joy-Con controller. The main difference is the Switch 2 Joy-Con uses magnets to connect to the console along with what seems to be a release button. The individual who uploaded the video of the Joy-Cons says that the production volume for the Nintendo Switch 2 is not high enough for a rumoured March release. Though it is widely thought that the Switch 2 will release some time in the summer.
Thanks to Edward B for the news tip!




I’m convince by those images. But here is my question. Will it drift before being release early next year?
No, but it’s definitely drifting directly to you next year.
Looks exactly like the alleged renders.
“Though it is widely thought that the Switch 2 will release some time in the summer.
I feel like there’s probably at least a dozen articles on this site alone where someone claimed it was coming much sooner.
Is it already confirmed that switch 2 is how the system is called?
Nope, nothing about the system has been confirmed.
Except that it’s backwards compatible.
👍
But how can you believe that this is real and imagine a release date for the machine knowing that no one knows anything but Nintendo?!
It’s sometimes enough to cry with laughter on this site…
On image 3 and 4 there is a triangle shape above the black rails… looks to me like a cut in the white plastic, also on image 2 between the white plastic and rails it looks like its not fitting. I assume its fake, and he just printed it with a 3d printer
Why is the image blurry? Is it to hide the 3D printed lines or something?
I’m just convince but not 100%. Sometimes I don’t like disappointments. I’m pretty sure the image was made blurry in a editing software like Photoshop and Indesign.
Must be a way to make the rumor believable. “We need to blur the video because it is top secret information. We can’t break the NDA.” “Rumors” are like that.
B-sh.t , Switch 2 will NOT have separate joycons ( Lite factor )
Of course it will. That’s part of the “backwards compatibility.”
Switch Lite – no joycons ?
Trust me bro, these images are 666% real, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. My grandma, 2024.
Sure, I’ll believe that.
it’s amazing how so many people have such clear phones with hi-def photos except anyone who’s leaking totally real information.
HOW… HOOOOOOOW DO YOU FIND CAMERAS THIS BAD IN 2024!? I SWEAR 99 DOLLAR ANDROIDS HAVE BETTER CAMERA THAN THIS BY 10 TIMES.
PISSES ME OFF MAN, YOU KNOW WHAT!? IM NOT BELIEVING IN THIS LEAK, JUST IN SPITE OF MFS WHO TAKE PHOTOS WITH THEIR TOASTERS.
Leakers are the last people to save in an apocalypse, don’t give them attention especially if they’re from China, leader of cheap copycats and stolen assets. The only thing true about 2witch is that it’s backwards compatible and that is the one thing that would have killed any success if it wasn’t included
I dont know what to believe. I want to believe it but good point almost 2025 and this the best they can take? What are they using an I phone 3? And why couldnt they take a picture of the console too? Wouldnt they think that more people would rather see that than joycons with supposedly extra buttons? Better yet people would rather see leaked photos of a 3D Mario Game or Mario Kart 9 on the hybrid console to see what it would look like.
A blurry photo in 2024? Get fucking real. We’re clearly hiding some 3D print artifacts here.
