The announcement of a new console is always a very exciting event: we know it’s going to happen, but we don’t really know when and generally, the mystery is rather well kept despite, it is true, rumors and a few leaks unfortunately inevitable in the modern internet age. But nevertheless, perhaps a machine will never have shown itself like this: the Switch 2 revealed everything before its time, from its name to its logo to its entire design because of an accessory manufacturer present at CES 2025 of Las Vegas, without forgetting, of course, its technical specifications and its graphic ambitions. A real sieve that it is time to empty for good and Nintendo seems to be on the verge of doing so once and for all.

Above all, it is the exact same banner that was used in October 2016 by the same Nintendo account (it was still Twitter at the time) to precede the announcement of the Nintendo Switch. We can attest to this by using the Wayback Machine, a site that allows you to travel into the internet’s past, with this screenshot taken by us and dating from October 20, 2016. It was precisely on this precise day that the first Switch was revealed to the general public.
We imagine that the Japanese giant’s plans were rushed in the face of the massive leak of information and given the critical situation, it would indeed be high time for Nintendo to get down to a definitive reveal… if indeed the party does not is not already wasted.
