Accessory makers have seemingly provided us with more details on the general shape and size of the Nintendo Switch 2 thanks to their presence at CES 2025. Caught by French publication Numerama, an accessory maker dubbed Genki claims to have access to the Switch 2.

Along with having a host of new accessories for the Nintendo Switch 2 on display, Genki also had a model of the console, allowing visitors to check out the range of accessories in real time. According to Numerama, the Switch 2 seems to be physically larger than its predecessor.

Genki also stated that its accessories will hit store shelves around the same time as the Nintendo Switch 2, which the accessory maker said was due to be in April. Interestingly enough, Genki also claims to have the console in its possession.

Some of the Switch 2 accessories shown off by Genki at CES 2025 include a charging dock for JoyCon controllers, as well as a host of grips that would make the system and its controllers more ergonomic to hold in handheld mode.

The company has also released a short video on its official website that gives us a look at some of its accessories, while also allowing us to look at what might end up being the new release mechanism for the Switch 2’s JoyCons.

Genki’s claims of the console being launched in April tie in with previous rumours that have indicated that Nintendo was looking to unveil the Switch 2 before the end of the current financial year, which would clock in at the end of April.

This goes against another rumour, however, which indicates that Nintendo is looking to unveil the Nintendo Switch 2 during an event in May, with a launch for the console slated for launch. As is the case with all rumours, however, it is worth taking all of these details with a grain of salt.

Several rumours about the Nintendo Switch 2 have popped up in recent times, ranging from the fact that it will have DLSS-styled image upscaling technology, as well as other notable details, such as a picture of the new console’s dock that indicates a higher-powered charger being required. Pictures of the Switch 2’s JoyCons are also rumoured to have popped up.
