Regarding its launch, the source claims that six development studios that currently have games in the pipeline for the next console revealed the alleged launch window to them. As such, fans could expect the Switch 2 to arrive between June and July 2025, if these reports are true.

Previously, Nintendo stated it would announce the console before the current fiscal year ends, which is March 31, 2025. Therefore, a June or July release window does not seem farfetched. Furthermore, previous rumors have suggested a $400 price tag, so the reported €400-500 also seems feasible.

Meanwhile, several Switch 2 accessories have also seemingly leaked early on the popular e-commerce website Alibaba. Keen-eyed users on the r/GamingLeaksAndRumors subreddit on Reddit were quick to take snapshots of the listings that showcased carry cases and tempered glass for the screen's protection.

The former boasts a Nintendo Switch 2 logo and appears to have length, width, and thickness of 11.6 inches, 5.9 inches, and 1.9 inches, respectively.

On the other hand, the latter is visibly larger in length and width than its original Nintendo Switch counterpart, as per the posted comparison screenshots.

Assuming these accessories are authentic, we could see something sooner than later.
