A Redditor claims to have encountered a real Switch 2, providing details that align with previous rumors. The new console is expected to feature upgraded specs, Hall effect joysticks to prevent drift, a more powerful dock, and a slightly larger, more rounded design.
Alleged Switch 2 leaks have intensified as Nintendo remains silent heading into 2025. Rumors about the reveal timing and elaborate mockups of the console's purported appearance have been circulating online, along with countless images from accessory manufacturers showcasing cases, screen protectors, and kickstands supposedly designed for the upcoming hardware.
Now, a Redditor claims to have encountered a genuine Switch 2, and the latest information aligns with reports from months ago: the Switch 2 is a larger, enhanced version of the console that fans adore. Posting on the NintendoSwitch2 subreddit under the name 'NextHandheld,' a user claimed to have interacted with Nintendo's next device and disclosed to The Verge that the new Joy-Con will feature Hall effect joysticks to prevent drift, utilize a dock with significantly higher power consumption, and be called the 'Nintendo Switch 2.' Instead of a rail for attaching to the screen, the Joy-Con reportedly use magnetic strips, as previously suggested. They also mention that the dock is rated for 60W and the Switch 2 itself for 45W, both considerably higher than the original model launched in 2017. Lastly, the dock boasts two USB-A ports and one USB-C port, presumably for power, mirroring the current model. 'I spoke with, and now I've heard and seen enough to think they might be legit,' wrote The Verge's Seaon Hollister. Regardless of its ultimate accuracy, everything shared by the latest alleged Reddit leaker continues to corroborate with previous information and alleged CAD mockups of the Switch 2's appearance, which surfaced in the fall. Essentially, the Switch 2 will resemble the current Switch, albeit slightly larger, with a more rounded profile and several spec upgrades and design refinements to enhance handling and user experience
