Rumor: Nintendo Switch 2 started production and it’ll feature Black & White Joy-Cons

The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to be announced by the end of March 2025 and it has been speculated the reveal will come this Fall. According to a new rumor from a Chinese forum poster on Famiboards, the Switch 2 has started production.

The user on Famiboards has shared that Switch 2 will be the official name of the Nintendo Switch successor. They also shared that the production has begun “somewhere in China” with them producing 1,000 units per day.

The rumor also suggests that Switch 2 will be larger and feature Black and White Joy-Cons.

“This is brand new info from a Chinese forum poster who didn’t have an insider track record, therefore the following is strictly for fun and giggles. Switch 2 production has started in [somewhere in China, which I don’t want to translate] 1000 units per day [Edit: This is one worker, not the whole line.] Slightly larger than Switch 1 Smaller bezel Black and white Joy-Con Slightly larger logo, with “2” on the side”

As always with rumors like this we have to take it with a grain of salt until Nintendo makes the official reveal.

It was reported earlier this year that the Nintendo Switch 2 will feature magnetic joy-cons and the current Joy-Cons will still be compatible with the new console.
