Seven years have passed since the original console was put on the market, so the rumors have been going around for a while. However, the company has yet to confirm anything about its reveal or launch. But a recent claim from a credible insider has stirred up all the excitement yet again.

Nintendo will formally unveil its next console in January 2025, followed by a March launch, according to the most recent rumors that the handle discovered on the Chinese forum Weibo and the Famiboards gaming forum.

Now this comes from a Chinese insider who has been spot-on with his claims in the past, the most recent example being the last Nintendo Direct. However, people in the West don’t seem to be pretty fond of this person, but keeping in mind his previous track records, there is a high chance that this claim comes out to be true.

This opinion is primarily supported by the fact that, in comparison to the original Switch, the Switch 2 probably won’t require as lengthy a marketing or promotion cycle. This hardware marketing campaign will be fairly straightforward, and Nintendo fans won’t need to be persuaded for months in advance.

According to aFamiboards user, the Switch 2 will be unveiled in January 2025 and then released in March. Additionally, they hinted at two possible Pokémon remakes. The user asserts that“a source that has been correct about every information since 2020”provided them with their information.

He also stated that the said source has leaked the Nintendo Switch OLED model,Mario and Luigi: Brothership, the August Indie World, and Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase and its content, and more. That certainly strengthens the argument, if it is accurate, but once more, nothing is definitive.

Somehow your Pokémon look like they’re having so much fun.”. Bianca said that during a post-game battle inPokémon Black and White, which made many people wonder if those games would be the next to get a remake.

Although players are advised to treat such information with caution, it seems like a piece of advice worth repeating.
