All right, guys, today we are going to be talking about the Nintendo Switch 2. And it's because as chatter has heated up, really pretty much the entire generation of Switch. But over the last year, since we had the Nvidia leak in summer of 2022, and then things sort of died down for a little bit and ramped a bit up this year. Potential dev kits out in the wild and other stuff like that. One thing that's also happening is a ramp up of fake information. And look, nobody likes fake information and being misled, right? Being misled isn't good. Speculative content's one thing, but completely misleading people is another. And unfortunately, over the last couple of weeks, we've had some massive misleads happening that are very, very unfortunate. Two of them I can prove are not real. And this other one, well, I can't technically, I guess, prove it. You'll see in a moment why it's pretty obvious that it's fake, even though one particular image at least looks a bit real. But we're gonna examine a bunch of fake, three in particular fake leaks for Nintendo Switch 2 to maybe help you be on the lookout for when you're scouring the internet and finding things. So you know what to look for yourself because these are gonna be three different types of leaks. Let's just dive right into this first one and you'll see here that we have this one from this dusk. Yeah, you see the username. Any sort of trolling usernames like this are one obvious gives away. Just look at the last name, look at the profile picture, not that you want to, but stuff like that's dead giveaways that it's someone who's trolling. Also, I believe this is the only tweet they even have on their entire account. That being said, it says I've received these images and various information of Nintendo Switch 2 from an unknown source. The console is called the Nintendo Switch Next, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And you'll see some interesting stuff. You'll see what looks like some sort of render or in a camera, phone, picture of what looks like an off-screen of the back of the Nintendo Switch Next Plus. What kind of branding is that? That's very trolley branding and just a bad logo in general. But you know, you could argue it looks a little bit believable at least. And then you get over here to the actual logo popping up on the screen. And yes, it looks absolutely ridiculous. And Nintendo would never use a Plus and the word Next. That doesn't make any sense. And then you get over to the Joy-Cons. Yeah, they look like redesigned Joy-Cons. It is what it is. We've seen designs like this before. And then we get to the information where it says I've received these images and various information of Nintendo Switch 2 from an unknown source. Look at that, unknown. So they don't even know. It's 4chan, probably. The console was called the Nintendo Switch Next. The announcement could come between September and December 2023 and release instead, not before March of 2024. So it won't release before March, basically. So for some reason, they're gonna announce it this year but then not release it anytime soon. You know, sure, that makes sense. Anyways, from what you can see from the images, the console will have two cameras, one front and one rear, which, okay, of not high quality. It should have a 1080p and 120 Hertz OLED screen. Sure, believable it's an OLED screen. Heck, maybe even believable is 1080p. I'm not sure I buy the 120 Hertz. But sure, games could run at a stable 60 FPS, which is why you don't need 120 Hertz screen. In TV mode, they could run up to 4K. The console may support ray tracing, may, again, don't know anything. And technology similar to DLSS, the memory should be from 128 gigabyte non-words. I'm assuming that means like storage. And finally, the console could cost no more than 499. So just suggesting 500 is a top-out price. Look, this is beyond fake. Like, it is so not real that the giveaway is the only post by this person. Crappy logos that look fan-made. The whole cell phone picture thing. While it can be true, it was true for the Zelda Switch OLED. There were other indicators that that might be true. There's a lot of indicators here that this is most definitely not true. But that's not the only leak we need to talk about because we have this other account that popped up as well. And again, this is fake and I'm gonna explain why it's fake. There's one dead giveaway. One dead giveaway that you guys might not spot that says it's fake. So first this account didn't start posting anything called Nintendo leaks one until July 14th. Says the winds will be awakened and apparently there's a princess at a certain time towards night, January 2024. So they're basically being like, you know, the Wind Waker HD is coming in January. Yeah, okay, sure. Then you'll see them claiming to get something right where they said hashtag Nintendo, Famicom plus Switch equals, what? Equals nothing. And then Nintendo posted a 40th anniversary thing the next day. So he's acting like, ha ha, gotcha. No, no, that's not a correct thing. The Nintendo's leaks aren't real unfortunately. It's a shame though, because the dude's talented. We're gonna get to those leaks in a moment. There's a significant Joy-Con redesign coming. Again, this guy's acting like he knows things. But we're gonna debunk him in a moment. So looking for someone to design renders. Said someone will be designing hardware from two gaming companies. Pay can be discussed, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. It appears people were confused on my comment. I was asking for people to help me make renders, not to provide renders. Next, this is a Photoshop Maca. Here we go. Introducing the next generation Switch. Yeah, the tablet slash console is probably the least impressive thing. Design changes, metal shell, curved edges, separate volume, up and down buttons, which it was a rocker last time. Still could be a rocker underneath there, to be honest. But yeah, so that's some sort of render he had someone put together of the tablet part. Changes are really on the inside. Now here's where we, oh boy. Here's where we get our big red flag. So it's apparently a 720p screen that's OLED HDR. Sure, that's entirely possible. You're going OLED, sure. NGS, so next-gen Switch, will aim for 720p, 60fps and handheld. I mean, the current Switch aims for that. Aiming doesn't mean achieves. T239 chip, sure. That's been the rumored chip since the Nvidia leak last year. DLSS2 capable. Yeah, some people feel like it'll be capable. DLSS3 says ray tracing technically capable. Ray tracing technically capable, yes. DLSS3 would literally require it to be on the latest chipset. So that's pretty suspicious, but since we don't know what the technology is, yeah, you could argue this is believable. Eight gigabyte of RAM. Sure. I mean, the operating system probably uses less than a gig. So yeah, it would leave a little over seven available that is significantly more than one is available for PlayStation 4. So yeah, that's a believable RAM amount anyways. You would hope we get at least eight gigabytes of RAM. I know some people want more, but sure, it's believable. Faster 64 gigabyte EMMC storage. And there's the rig red flag. Mia, make sure you guys can see this. It says it right here. Faster EMMC storage. See, the problem with making that statement, the problem with that statement. Nintendo Switch right now already uses the fastest EMMC storage available. There isn't any faster EMMC storage. So they're talking about the internal hard drive on this new system. Yes, that technology hasn't advanced since Switch came out. It's exactly the same today as it was because it's really, really, really fast and already really, really, really small. Yeah, it hasn't gone anywhere. So the fastest EMMC storage available is already on Switch. There's your red flag. Someone's just making things up who don't know anything. So there's that. That's just another fake debunked. And then we get to this one. This is one many of you guys have probably already seen, but if you haven't, we'll kind of go through it. Nintendo's over here, if you actually look at his username, another red flag is glancing at usernames, Nintendo's BS. Now what some of you guys might do is, well, another red flag is it's on Twitter. We do have legit leaks that happen through Twitter. You might say, well, the red flag is from 4chan, could be. But again, real leaks happen on 4chan as well. I don't like to look at the platform as the red flag, rather look at some commonalities between fake stuff. So this already just looks like a funky design, but there's always already a red flag in here with this image when you open it up, the way tears of the kingdom is capitalized is not, it's literally not how it's capitalized on Nintendo Switch. They do not capitalize the of in legend of Zelda, and they don't capitalize the O or the T in tears of the kingdom. So again, they are going against Nintendo's own design philosophy. Also, Nintendo tends to not put the UI like this on the box, usually a blank screen or some colorful thing indicating an OLED panel. It's usually not this colorful or it'll be like a single game maybe. So it's already a bit weird that these renders would include that. You just see Nintendo Switch and it is calling it two here. But as we go on, it just gets worse. So we have our Joy-Con two, our Joy-Con two again. I can't read any of this because I believe this is in Italian. But yeah, I can't read any of this, but it looks official enough, I suppose. Then you get to this one. And this new UI, Jiff, has a lot of red flags. The first one being, if you look really close, it says Super Mario Wonder. When the official name of the game is Super Mario Bros. Wonder. So there's that. That's a big red flag. Also, later on, I think it was pointed out, maybe it was pointed out on this art here that there's some interesting stuff going on with the Xenoblade background and the background of Super Mario RPG here where they're not actually from the game. So they're completely fan-made icons. Anyways, moving on. We get up to here and you know, trying to tease a tomorrow announcement and they show this weird docking animation, which sure, it's Nintendo-esque, but it's a little slow. The Switch kinda, you kind of drop it in and it's like half a second then it pops on your TV. That was longer than half a second. So not very Nintendo-like. They like to have a smoother experience, although it's a pretty neat concept for a fan animation. And then you see more explanations, closer explanations on the Joy-Cons. You see in two days and as we scroll up, we'll see these sort of concept sketches and then we see this about the mechanism. It's basically a locking mechanism. And it's cool and you'll notice he fixed Super Mario Bros. He added Bros. in here. He fixed that in this one. This is the next one, it'll be the last one, the final drop this week, which is kinda funny because he just started this week, but it's pretty interesting and it's clearly fake. There's even more red flags than what I pointed out. But the bottom line is, there's just a lot of fakes rolling around on the internet. And I want you guys to be just be aware of why you might see some other channels picking this stuff up and making a lot of videos and I'm choosing not to. Well, I do cover a lot of rumors and leaks and all that. I like to cover things that at least have a possibility, even if I don't think it's likely to be real. None of these leaks have a possibility of being real. They are all fake, but yet some other channels keep talking about them. So I wanted to make this one video show to just showing you what to look for and what I'm looking at. I'm double checking information provided. I'm closely examining images. I'm looking at the user names, that you gotta look at the post history. A whole lot of stuff before you just jump ahead. Things I didn't always necessarily do in years past when I've learned over time as a content creator that I don't wanna lie to my users. What I wanna do is provide an interesting, informative video and I hope that's what you got today. So if you guys enjoyed this video, I'd appreciate if you would like the video, subscribe to the channel and help us on our road to 150K. I'll catch you in the next video.
