It seems that a few Nintendo Switch 2 units have made their way out in the wild. This was to be expected as many people have their ways of getting games and systems early, but if you were hoping to get a first look at the console before everyone else, you are only going to be disappointed.
Originally posted by YouTube user a2dubai on a now deleted YouTube short, showing the console being unboxed, they later posted a comment regarding how the system is effectively unable to boot without a day one firmware update.
It seems Nintendo were prepared in the scenario that their consoles would break street date and even if you do manage to get one by either getting it from a store or what have you, the system will still be unable to play even Nintendo Switch games as pointed out by another person who anonymously reported to Wario64 the following:
This is where the saga begins and ends unfortunately. If you were hoping to get a look at the Switch 2 early, then be ready to be disappointed.
With the launch of the console a little over a week away, we are all equally excited to see what Nintendo has cooked over the 8 years since the release of the original Switch.
