I would love to see the mood inside Nintendo HQ, because it is pure chaos out here.

It’s no secret that we’re all awaiting news on the successor to the Nintendo Switch.

That’s something that’s guaranteed to come by the end of the fiscal year, which essentially means by April.

Although perhaps I should specify that we’re awaiting official news, as practically everything about the Nintendo Switch 2 has already come to light.

For several months now, whispers have emerged teasing the console’s specs and output, but the leaks hit a new high this past weekend when accessories manufacturer Genki showcased their upcoming Switch 2 cases at CES, unveiling a model of the Switch 2 in the process.

If you’re yet to see the leaked model, it looks, well, a lot like a Nintendo Switch, albeit a tad bigger.

It does seem as if the Joy-Cons will click on this time around, rather than slide on, unless that’s a feature of the Genki case.

Pokémon Legends Z-A is something else Nintendo fans can look forward to this year.

This unofficial reveal by Genki has taken the internet, rather unsurprisingly, by storm, so you’d expect the company to lay low for a while.

But no. They’ve instead apparently teased a release date.

As reported by Daily Star, Genki has supposedly teased (via Numerama) an April launch date for the console.

Of course, I have to urge you to take such news with a pinch of salt until anything is officially confirmed, but it feels feasible.

With the Nintendo Switch 2 practically already out there, I’m imagining that Nintendo is going to want to hold its reveal sooner rather than later, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that aired before the month is over.

If we’re to assume the console is launching in April, that still leaves three months for pre-orders to flood in.

I don’t know about you but I just want to know the console’s launch titles, the one area we know very little about.

Let’s hope such secrets will be revealed soon.
