Nintendo has kept a low profile regarding the Switch 2. The company has only stated that the reveal of its next-generation gaming handheld will occur "within this fiscal year." Following that, numerous leaks have surfaced, one showcasing the supposed design and another discussing potential specifications.
Possible Announcement This Week
PH Brazil, known for being a fairly trusted source for leaks, suggests that the Nintendo Switch 2 might be unveiled this week. The leaker speculates that the announcement could take place on either Monday or Tuesday, specifically October 28 or October 29.
Investor Conference on the Horizon
According to PH Brazil, Nintendo has an investor conference scheduled for November 5, and their current game lineup appears somewhat lacking. Without something significant to show investors, there might be less engagement from them. This is why the leaker believes the announcement for Switch 2 is crucial to happen this week.
Speculation and Hints
It’s interesting to mention that another well-known leaker, Pyoro, recently changed their name on X. Users on the platform and Reddit have speculated that this name change, along with a new banner reading Alarmo, suggests a forthcoming Nintendo Switch 2 announcement.
However, it's important to remember that these are just theories. PH Brazil did not clarify where their information came from, and Pyoro's name change could mean something entirely different. So, it's best to approach all of this with caution (Switch Lite currently priced at $178.99 on Amazon).
