Pressure is mounting at Nintendo, more and more information is leaking regarding the machine that will succeed the Switch. This time, it's a company that sells accessories for the console that disclosed something it shouldn't… This allows us to have an even more precise idea of what the Ounce project looks like!
Oops…
New episode in the series of leaks concerning the Ounce project, Nintendo's next console. This time, it was Satisfye, an accessories manufacturer, who made the mistake. The company has published a trailer to promote its brand new product: the Zengrip 2, a video in which an unknown version of the Switch appears. The first version of this accessory was used for the Switch OLED, allowing owners to benefit from better handling. The device is nothing other than a plate, into which the portable console is inserted, with two handles. In the trailer in question, Satisfye reveals the appearance of the successor to the Switch, blurring the image a little. The trailer did not last long since it was quickly deleted. That said, it left just enough time for fans to take screenshots of the item.
The Zegrip 2 teaser proves that it's for the Switch 2. As you can see, there is a new button from that of Home (to return to the home interface, editor’s note).
On this console, which, like the classic OLED, is white, a new button appears, which seems to confirm the 3D plans that had leaked some time previously on Bilibili, a Chinese social network. In the latter, we notice that the Joy-Cons work differently of those that we know since they cling to the console screen by magnetism. Once again, all of this is unofficial information, so take it with a grain of salt.
2025 is Nintendo
The Zengrip 2 is already present in the Satisfye online store. On its page, we can read that the accessory is planned “for the next generation of consoles” and that shipments begin at spring 2025. A period that coincides with the official announcement planned by Nintendo before the end of March 2025. Another thing that the Japanese firm revealed is the fact that the next games will be compatible with the Switch, thus allowing more players to enjoy them .
Beyond that, that's all the public has at this time. Before every Nintendo event that took place this year, the company warned on Twitter: “Please note that these presentations will not include any mention of what will succeed the Nintendo Switch”, which had the gift of frustrating fans who find the time very long. 2024 was indeed a small year for the company: it delegated quite a few large projects to third-party studios and did not present a candidate for the Best Game of the Year category at GOTY. Princess Peach: Showtime!, Super Mario Party Jamboree and The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom are however nominated in the Best Family Game category.
