Like previous leaks, Genki’s mock-up shows the Switch 2 with magnetic Joy-Cons that easily pull off the main portion of the console. Videos of Genki’s case show the Switch 2 with a U-shaped kickstand, as previously leaked. The accessory maker also said that the Joy-Cons do indeed have an optical sensor — fans think it could make the controllers usable as a mouse — and a mysterious “C” button.
Of course, without Nintendo’s official word, this all remains speculation — despite how confident Genki appears to be by showing up to CES with a Switch 2 mock-up. All we definitely know about the Nintendo Switch 2 is that it is coming (maybe with a different name!), it’s backward-compatible with Nintendo Switch games, it will use Nintendo accounts and Nintendo Switch Online service, and it will be announced before March 2025.
There’s still little information available about how much the console will cost; for reference, Nintendo Switch’s OLED model costs $349.
