\nWhile earlier rumors initially suspected a possible release date of Nintendo\u2019s next console this holiday season, that never came to pass. It\u2019s also been stated on several occasions that Nintendo wouldn\u2019t launch the new console until sometime in 2025. It\u2019s now very evident that this is exactly what\u2019s going to happen. The latest rumor comes from an Italian news publication that is suggesting Nintendo\u2019s next console will launch at the same time as some upcoming accessories.
\nIf that sounds familiar, that\u2019s because there has already been at least one other rumor surrounding the console\u2019s release date based on accessory launch times. Earlier this month, Accessory maker Satisfye accidentally leaked a brief shot of the Nintendo Switch 2. The leak happened because Satisfye was teasing its upcoming Zen Grip 2 accessory, which is slated to launch in the Spring of 2025. The rumor suggests that Nintendo plans to launch the new console around the same time as these accessories.
\nThe Switch 2 launch rumor suggests Nintendo is pushing up the timetable
\nWhile we can\u2019t say this with absolute certainty, we\u2019d suggest taking this rumor with a grain of salt. As most rumors expect the console to launch in late Spring. That being said, Nintendo has stated it would reveal the new console within this fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2025. So there is a chance that if the company reveals the console within the next couple of months, it could launch by the end of March. That would mean Nintendo is pushing up the timetable. That isn\u2019t impossible, but probably unlikely.
\nNintendo launched the original Switch several months after revealing it to the public for the first time. And it makes more sense for it to do the same thing this time around.
\nNintendo has no more big first-party games until after this fiscal year
\nAnother thing to take into consideration is the games. Nintendo launched the original Switch with a huge first-party title. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Nintendo has confirmed already that there are no more big first-party games coming this fiscal year.
\nIt would also likely want to launch the console alongside a big first-party game. And since the fiscal year ends on March 31, it\u2019s reasonable to assume the launch of the Switch 2 will happen after this date. This is all speculation, of course. But it does make sense, given Nintendo\u2019s comments.
