From the other thread. It looks like VGC corroborates Nate the Hate's claim:

Nintendo will reportedly reveal Switch 2 this week | VGC

Insider claims Nintendo’s next console reveal is set for January 16…

Nate the Hate speculates that Switch 2 could launch in May or June of this year

in case it wasn't obvious from my tease in Notepad last week, I've heard it should be the Switch 2 reveal this week

From the other thread. It looks like VGC corroborates Nate the Hate's claim:

Nintendo will reportedly reveal Switch 2 this week (Jan 16) according to Nate the Hate. The reveal will focus exclusively on the console with no games presence/focus. Software showcase in late Feb or early March.

VGC says the two-part reveal plan aligns with what they've been told about the Switch 2 reveal.

Just let me preorder the thing.

 

[bender]

I guess if you throw out enough future dates you are bound to be correct once.

 

[cireza]

This looks like what they did with the Switch, if I remember correctly.

They might as well reveal the Switch again lol.

 

[Pharaoh 117]

Ok, I'll take a break from playing AC EVO to watch this shit.

I guess if you throw out enough future dates you are bound to be correct once.

If not this week, next week for sure. You've heard it here first.

 

[Shaki12345]

Nate is very reliable and Thursday is a day where Nintendo shows stuff normally. Also, splitting hardware and software announcements is a very smart marketing tric. People will be hyped as F while waiting for the next Direct. The internet will be Nintendo's for 2 months in a row.

Nintendo playing this one very smart.

 

[spons]

He has a decent track record so I doubt he makes this shit up just for kicks and clicks since getting this wrong 3 days prior would just be plain stupid.

 

[Fake]

Lets hope so.

 

[Sgt.Asher]

It just got pushed back by another week

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

nintendo left it too late. we already know what the Switch 2 is.

i'm more interested in what games will be on it.

 

[MMaRsu]

Hey here's the info, it's a Switch that runs games better

nintendo left it too late. we already know what the Switch 2 is.

i'm more interested in what games will be on it.

Ya we knew that forever

 

[DenchDeckard]

Just let me get my pre order in...Take my money and make me buy an OLED later you TWATS!

 

[Hyet]

The timeline is:
-Jan 16: Hardware introduction video, less that 5 minutes, no big focus on software
-Mid/late February: Console presentation featuring software lineup, price features and services deep dive
-Late may (maybe June?): worldwide relase

 

[Buggy Loop]

Feels like an eternity

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Man I'm already stressing about playing Xenoblade Chronicles X in March vs waiting to play it on Switch 2

 

[Buggy Loop]

Man I'm already stressing about playing Xenoblade Chronicles X in March vs waiting to play it on Switch 2

I'm waiting.

Not buying anything switch 1 till I know what's going on with either new versions on switch 2 or nice upres for these titles

 

[spons]

Just let me get my pre order in...Take my money and make me buy an OLED later you TWATS!

It better have an OLED SKU on launch. Fuck that shit.

Buying it anyway, but fuck that shit.

 

[Cyberpunkd]

Let's see what they show and the price. I am solidly #teamhandheld after Steam Deck, the question is do I ride it till SD2 in 2026 or I go Nintendo.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

 

[Wooxsvan]

cant wait for this 8nm beast

 

[tmlDan]

hardware only? so im gonna see a vid on how its the same as the switch. Can't wait.

 

[Zacfoldor]

 

[HYDE]

Coincides with DKCR release date. Makes sense

 

[CuteFaceJay]

I'm gassed, Held off from picking up an OLED model for this moment.

 

[Davevil]

It's already late 16th January and Nintendo still hasn't given any hints about the reveal of the Switch's successor.

 

[Hookshot]

Finally only 3 more days of dickheads and their insider knowledge out how it has a screen and you can play as Mario in one of the games.

 

[RetroGamingUK]

When does the Christmas returns period end?

That's the only reason I see for a delay now, Nintendo don't want a load of Switch's bough for Christmas returning.

 

[Robb]

I doubt it's this week, but I'd be very happy to be wrong.

 

[Alexios]

Fingers crossed it doesn't happen, love all the frothing from folks who apparently don't even care about what (always shit according to them) Nintendo does/releases

 

[Horseganador]

 

[Gamer79]

 

[HRK69]

That's my birthday

 

[Xyphie]

Should see the announcement of the announcement tomorrow then? Usually happens on Tuesdays.

 

[LordOcidax]

Waiting for Pyoro confirmation.

 

[Ailike]

But can I play it at my rooftop party??????

 

[Fake]

Shame about the software, but man after buying a PS5 last year I'm crazy to get a new NS.

 

[Buggy Loop]

That's my birthday

 

[NuclearDiarrhea]

Nice. Gonna sell my PS5 Pro to get this.

 

[Badlucktroll]

 

[Thebonehead]

Just let me get my pre order in...Take my money and make me buy an OLED later you TWATS!

I'd take a screenless permanent docked variant switch.

Only ever used mine a few times in portable mode.

 

[Days like these...]

If this is just some cocktease that only shows the hardware I'm going to be really upset. I want to know about the games!

 

[CuteFaceJay]

I kinda checked out when they started day dreaming about GTA 6 coming to the thing LOL.

 

[KyoZz]

Nice. I will buy two of those. One for my nephew as a gift for the next Christmas, and for me at release.
Can't wait.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

25 finished games.

 

[Pop]

Upscaling about to do some heavy lifting

 

[reinking]

That's my birthday

 

[Kenneth Haight]

already seen most of it anyway lol

 

[existensmaximum]

It's nearly the end of March and it still hasn't been revealed!

... I don't believe any rumors
