Nintendo Switch 2 speculation reaches new heights with a countdown set for January 8 and leaked dock images circulating online. Fans are eager but cautious as the buzz around the anticipated reveal grows.
Weibo Leaker Fuels Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Countdown Speculation
The Chinese Weibo leaker 荷姆荷姆叼, who was previously known to correctly predict every June Nintendo Direct announcement before it aired, has reportedly begun a countdown using the numbers in the Fibonacci sequence. The countdown will conclude on January 8th, which could be the date of the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement, according to the Gaming Leaks and Rumors and Nintendo Switch 2 subreddits.
The user may be trying to hide their identity after deleting all of their posts, changing their profile picture, and claiming the countdown was for something else after they were discovered.
Nintendo Switch 2 Leaks Suggest System and Dock Images
Recent days have also seen an uptick in Nintendo Switch 2 leaks, with a user going by the handle NextHandheld allegedly sharing the first images of the system and dock. This user gained more attention after a report from The Verge suggested that the leaker actually had access to the new system that Nintendo has yet to reveal.
The leaker first posted a picture of the system, which doesn't appear very official, and then a second picture of the dock, which does look much more official.
