rty Nintendo Switch 2 accessories have surfaced on online shopping sites They 
match previous leaks, but are unlikely to be genuine The console has yet to 
be officially unveiled by Nintendo 

Some accessories, purportedly designed for the tentatively named Nintendo 
Switch 2 , have appeared on online shopping websites. 

As noted by VGC , accessories allegedly designed for the Nintendo Switch 2 
are now up for sale at Chinese retailer Alibaba including a case and tempered 
glass screen protector. The screen protector appears to be designed for a 
display much larger than that of the original Nintendo Switch, lining up with 
previous rumors that its upcoming successor would have a bigger screen. 

The case also looks quite different from anything that weve seen for the 
original. Its bigger, appearing to offer much more room for the Joy-Con 
controllers. There also seems to be something of a protrusion in the cases 
design, though its not clear whether this is just for additional protective 
padding or indicates that the Nintendo Switch 2 controllers are expected to 
be a radically new shape. 

Listing images for the products reveal dimensions too. The case is 1.9in / 
5cm deep, with a height of 5.9in / 15cm and a width of 11.6in / 29.5cm which 
could give us a very rough idea of the Nintendo Switch 2s size. This would 
make the system much closer in size to something like the Steam Deck OLED 
than the Nintendo Switch . 

A logo is also shown on one product, though it looks more like a crude fan 
mock-up than anything else. Its effectively just the current Nintendo Switch 
emblem with the number two haphazardly slapped on the end. 

It almost goes without saying, but you should take the appearance of these 
products with a huge pile of salt. Sellers can list basically whatever they 
want on these kinds of websites, so this is far from an official confirmation 
of anything. Its more likely that a few companies are trying to make a quick 
buck selling accessories in anticipation of the upcoming console, using the 
latest Nintendo Switch 2 leaks to take a best guess at what they could look 
like. 

Nintendo has previously confirmed that a Nintendo Switch successor will be 
announced "within this fiscal year" - which is to say before March 31 2025. 
We'll likely have to wait for an official reveal before we will know for sure 
what the company has in store. You might also like... Nintendo Switch Online
