A new report claims that Nintendo has given those working on Switch 2 games a clearer indication of when the new console will be released.
It looks like an early 2025 launch is out the window There have been a lot of Switch 2 rumours recently and not just from some rando on 4chan, quoting his uncle who works at Nintendo. Instead, a new cartridge patent has appeared to confirm backwards compatibility, while component shipment data points to the new console having two fans – implying a significantly more powerful device.
’ The talk of more specific launch windows is purely speculative, but he added: ‘I don’t think any of us wants a late launch for Switch 2 because we all want a new Nintendo console, everyone gets very excited for it, and we don’t want that crunch of GTA 6 and Switch and all that kind of stuff on top of each other.
