At CES 2025, Genki is showcasing new Change 2 equipment which it reportedly says relies on the precise design of the console
Nintendo is predicted to disclose the Change 2 in early 2025.

There is a good likelihood Nintendo needs it had revealed the Switch 2 already. Leaks are seemingly raining down about its highly-anticipated upcoming console, and now there’s been a large leak from none apart from Amazon itself.

A brand new product itemizing on Amazon Japan provides our first full take a look at what may very well be the Nintendo Change successor. The itemizing is for a protecting case for the Nintendo Change 2 from the model Laziro, which is accessible in black or a transparent shade.

The itemizing exhibits a redesigned Nintendo Change inside Laziro’s clear case and a joycon much like the leaked design we have seen earlier than. Whereas it’s not 100% that’s what the Change 2 will appear to be, there’s a good likelihood this may very well be the true deal.

Forward of the Change 2 reveal, Nintendo’s stance on synthetic intelligence has been paradoxically clear-cut and but wholly obtuse.

The Change 2 is within the highlight at CES 2025

Equipment for the Change 2 are exhibiting up on the conference

Accessory-maker Genki launched a video teasing a few of its upcoming equipment for the Change 2 at CES 2025 in Las Vegas. The video provides us a possible take a look at the Change 2’s dock and the console’s brand.

Whereas the Change 2 Genki is exhibiting off at CES is only a 3D mock-up, the corporate is reportedly touting that it is primarily based on the precise Change 2. Within the video under, you possibly can see the unique Change held up subsequent to the 3D mock-up of the Change 2, and the brand new console seems to be a lot greater than the unique. A consultant of Genki reportedly mentioned at CES 2025 that it has developed eight equipment for the Change 2 and can launch them similtaneously the console “in April” (by way of Numerama).

You possibly can go to Genki’s site now to enroll in notifications about its Change 2 equipment, which it’s referring to as an “all-new lineup of equipment, crafted for the following evolution in gaming.” Genki is reportedly not in an official partnership with Nintendo, therefore why it is ready to exhibit its equipment forward of the console’s reveal and isn’t breaking any contracts.

Nintendo has verified none of this data, and it is nonetheless unclear when precisely the corporate will reveal the Change 2. Nevertheless, judging by all of the information and leaks from CES 2025 in regards to the console, its reveal may very well be imminent within the subsequent few weeks primarily based on previous reports. The final time Nintendo spoke in regards to the console publicly, it revealed that the Nintendo Change’s successor could be backwards compatible and have the ability to play present Change video games.
