At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025, accessory manufacturers like Genki have given us a better idea of the Nintendo Switch 2‘s overall shape and dimensions by sharing some details about it. This information was picked up by the French publication Numerama.

In addition to showcasing various new accessories for the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2, Genki also presented a prototype of the console, enabling attendees to observe the array of accessories up close and personal. As reported by Numerama, it appears that the Switch 2 may be larger in size compared to its predecessor.

Genki announced that their accessories would become available at roughly the same time as the anticipated release of the Nintendo Switch 2, which is slated for April, according to Genki. Remarkably, they also assert that they currently own the upcoming console.

At CES 2025, Genki unveiled some exciting Switch 2 accessories tailored for us fans! Among them, a JoyCon charging dock, ensuring our controllers are always ready for action, and a variety of grips designed to enhance the ergonomics, making handheld gameplay more comfortable.

On their official site, the company shared a brief video, offering glimpses of potential accessories and hinting at possible changes in the release mechanism for the upcoming JoyCons of Switch 2.

Genki’s assertion about the console release in April aligns with earlier speculations suggesting that Nintendo might reveal the Switch 2 prior to the conclusion of its fiscal year, which falls on the last day of April.

Contrary to another speculation, there’s a rumor suggesting that Nintendo might reveal the Nintendo Switch 2 during an event in May. If this turns out to be true, the console could potentially launch later. As always, remember to take such rumors with a pinch of salt.

In the past few days, various speculations regarding the Nintendo Switch 2 have emerged, encompassing details like the potential use of DLSS-like image scaling technology and a more powerful dock that may necessitate a stronger charger. Additionally, there are whispers about the appearance of the new console’s JoyCons.
