Nintendo Seems to Tease Imminent Switch 2 Reveal

by Patrick Feb 10,2025

Nintendo's cryptic social media update fuels Nintendo Switch 2 speculation. A recent change to the Japanese Nintendo Twitter banner depicts Mario and Luigi seemingly pointing at nothing, sparking widespread belief that it subtly hints at the imminent reveal of the Nintendo Switch 2. This follows President Shuntaro Furukawa's May 2024 confirmation of the console's existence, promising a reveal before March 2025. Currently, backward compatibility with the original Switch library is the only officially confirmed feature.

Numerous leaks and rumors have circulated regarding the Switch 2's design and release timeframe, including a purported October 2024 reveal that was reportedly postponed. While alleged images surfaced online during the holiday season, no official unveiling has yet occurred.

The updated Twitter banner, featuring Mario and Luigi's ambiguous gesture against a blank backdrop, has ignited debate among gamers. Some interpret it as a placeholder for the upcoming console announcement, while others note its previous use, as recently as May 2024.
