Despite numerous leaks about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, the company remains silent, fueling speculation and excitement among fans. While some analysts believe the leaks won't significantly impact sales or marketing, the online community is abuzz with discussions and theories.

Nintendo , however, remains steadfast in its silence. While fans online may speculate why the company hasn’t given in and made an announcement about the Switch 2 itself, the leaks might not actually make a difference in its sales, marketing, or anything else of material consequence. “None of these leaks will matter in the slightest once the official reveal is made,” says Circana executive director and video game analyst Mat Piscatella. In other words, this isn’t the iPhone 4.

Once Nintendo reveals the new Switch, this will all just have been a part of the hype cycle. Not that it hasn’t been a wickedly fun hype cycle. In addition to images leaked on sites like X and Reddit, there have also been “summoning circles” constructed to call forth the Switch 2. Some folks have even made jokes about the situation, riffing on “leaked” images of screws or air that might be used for the new console. And of course, leaks have to be seen by the audience to even matter.
