Samurai-worthy excerpt: Nintendo has commented on the huge Switch 2 content leak at CES 2025

Perhaps everything is known about the new console from Nintendo. Insiders have leaked its parameters, technical capabilities and features, innovations, updated controllers, photos, videos and much more. The situation is surprising because all this information is not commented by Nintendo in any way, while the company has not even officially unveiled the device.

We have already reported that at CES 2025 there was a surprising collision: Nintendo's partner Genki (manufacturer of accessories for Switch) held a private show for journalists, where it presented a mock-up of Nintendo Switch 2, but the secret could not be kept and a huge number of photos and videos of the device appeared online. Moreover, the Genki website published a clip showing their products directly in conjunction with the Switch 2.

Here's What We Know

Finally, a reaction from Nintendo followed.

A journalist from the Japanese newspaper Sankei contacted representatives of the company and asked for a comment on the situation.

Well, Nintendo's comment was surprising in its brevity:

As for the photos and videos, they are not official.

That Genki's materials are not official was immediately obvious, but what's striking is Nintendo's calmness and unbreakable focus on its strategy. The Japanese aren't panicking or taking hasty action, they're following their own plan in a situation that seems odd from the outside.
