alienboyva Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) So, this image has been floating all over the place recently... Given how easy it is to fake stuff nowadays, I wouldn't be surprised if it was fake. I mean there was that recent faked PS5 controller leaked and that weird NX controller leak that was also fake. To me this just looks like one of those silicone covers for the Switch that some just photoshoped some logos on to. Edited April 17, 2019 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
Kezay Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Yeah, there's really not much to go off of based on that. Like you mentioned it just looks like a silicone cover for the Switch. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 At best that is a 3D printed back shell to a Switch.... I quit watching a video when I saw that was "the leak." Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I was just about to post what PB just posted. I had my suspicions with all these talks of 2 new Switch systems, it just there was nothing really connecting these stories to Nintendo. But yeah the mini or whatever it is a fake as the Smash Ultimate leak that had Geno, Banjo-Kazooie, Mach Rider and Isaac. As much as ppl want to believe it's plausible to be true. Delay or not with this pro now, I just think this was ever a thing either. Quote Link to comment
Doc Brown Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Interesting find! I'm glad that they're going in that direction. Will put less pressure on people who have the older model of the Switch. Quote Link to comment
JimTheborg Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Interesting. Hoping to have this as well, if ever. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Man, in the last two weeks a whole lot of leaks about at least accessory products for a Switch Mini have been blowing up on IGN, Nintendolife, Nintendoworldreport, and others... This thing could actually be happening.... and probably releases with that Pokemon tie in later in the year. There are still aspects to the idea, that until shown an actual one, make it not look like what a Switch is supposed to be. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 Take this with a MAJO grain of salt... Most likely that pic is a fan mock up. I doubt this no-name accessory manufacture would have access to official pics this far in advance. Kezay 1 Quote Link to comment
Kezay Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Id also bet that they wouldn't be openly sharing images of the device if it was legit either. Nintendo's lawyers would be having a field day and future business with that company would be strained if not terminated outright. purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Once again, GRAIN OF SALT!... Can't get a since of scale, but I'd say just slightly bigger than the PS Vita. Also, no D-pad? I'm pretty sure Nintendo is going to put a D-pad on the Switch Mini, given it's not supposed to have detachable controllers. Edited July 1, 2019 by alienboyva Kezay 1 Quote Link to comment
Kezay Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Is it just me or does the product art on the box not match the actual product? Product art at first glance seems to accommodate both the Dpad and the ABXY buttons with properly cut inserts, but the actual product is different. Quote Link to comment
