Nintendo Switch 2 leaks hit Amazon and CES
Summary
- Amazon Japan has published a list of accessories for Switch 2 cases from Laziro.
- At CES 2025, Genki is showing off new accessories for the Switch 2 that are reportedly based on the console’s actual design.
- Nintendo is expected to unveil the Switch 2 in early 2025.
There’s a good chance Nintendo will regret not disclosing Switch 2 already. Leaks seem to be pouring in about the highly anticipated upcoming console, and now there’s been a massive leak from none other than Amazon itself.
New product list on Amazon Japan gives us our first full look at what could be the successor to the Nintendo Switch. The listing features a protective case for the Nintendo Switch 2 from the brand Laziro, which is available in black or clear.
The listing shows the updated Nintendo Switch with a transparent Laziro case and a joycon that looks like fused design we’ve seen before. While the Switch 2 won’t 100 percent look like this, there’s a good chance it will.
