Details of the recent commercial audition for the Nintendo Switch 2 were leaked, and the audition was reportedly aimed at shooting commercials for the upcoming handheld console. The ad shows a man who wakes up from a coma and discovers that the world has changed a lot, but he can easily play "awesome" arcade games with this new handheld console.
Although there are rumors that the ad was made for the Nintendo Switch 2, it can only be guessed at the moment. Nintendo has yet to provide specific information about the public release of the next generation of consoles, and Nintendo has a reputation for confidential information and infringement lawsuits, so players can only remain skeptical of these rumors and speculation.
At a recent press conference on the company's September 2023 interim financial results, Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa said that the rumors that Nintendo demonstrated the Switch 2 to certain game developers back in 2022 and later at Gamescom in 2023 are inaccurate and untrue.
Furukawa also responded to reports about the recently discovered patent for a dual-screen functional gaming device similar to the 3DS, saying that Nintendo knew when it applied for the patent that its details would be shared with the public, clarifying that the existence of the patent does not mean that it will be part of the final product, and that it may have been filed primarily for research and development purposes.
Previously, Nintendo America President Doug Bowser hinted in an interview that the Switch 2 is likely to support backward compatibility. He said Nintendo has already taken an initiative on the Switch to set up a Nintendo Account to help those who are moving from existing consoles to next-gen platforms, guaranteeing a seamless transition of their content and investments to the next generation.
In conclusion, there is still some uncertainty about the leak of the details of the audition for the Nintendo Switch 2, as the company has not publicly released specific information about the next generation of consoles. We need to be skeptical of these rumors and speculations until more official information confirms.
