A leak of Pokémon may have confirmed the date of the successor to Nintendo Switch

The only reliable Pokémon leak in recent weeks may have gone further and confirmed the window in which the new Nintendo console will arrive.

The Pokémon universe has already defined its future with the expansion pass of Pokémon Scarlet and Purple, although in the end there was nothing related to a new Pokémon Mysterious World or the desired remakes of Pokémon Gold and Silver. However, there was a leak that already anticipated what these DLCs would be based on from the ninth generation of the franchise developed by Game Freak, but it went further, as it made reference to one of the hottest news in the Nintendo environment: the successor to Nintendo Switch.

And it is that once The hidden treasure of Area Zero has been officially revealed, in the 4chan forums it has been discovered a post from an alleged developer of Game Freak in which he was right with all the contents that were shown in the Pokémon Presents of the day yesterday. However, the most striking thing about these details is that he assured that in the team of the Japanese company there are already working on a game update for next wintercoinciding with the arrival of the second DLC, for the next Nintendo system. In this way, it offers a launch window for nintendo switch 2or whatever the successor to the hybrid console will be called.

With this, we can make calculations to determine that Nintendo Switch 2 will be released in early 2024, probably between the months of February and March, as happened with the current model. If this information is true, which seems to be true considering the degree of detail of the leak on Pokémon, we are facing the last year of the current generation of Nintendo.

The latest Nintendo Switch update also points to its successor

And it is that the stars seem to be beginning to align to see soon the successor to Nintendo Switch, since Nintendo’s own hybrid console could have included a reference to the upcoming system via update 16.0. This detail focuses on the expansion of RAM memory that supports the operating systemmuch higher than that of the current model and which suggests that it is beginning to pave the way for the arrival of that alleged Nintendo Switch 2.
