For the past few weeks, rumors have been swirling about the successor to the Nintendo Switch, which many believe will be called the Switch 2.

Now, the previously reliable leaker who once went by Pyoro_X has dropped a hint supporting this idea. Pyoro was famous for leaking many details about Nintendo announcements before they were officially made, although they have been less active after their activities eventually drew too much attention to the account, risking serious action from Nintendo.

Pyoro’s account recently replied to a post from Necrofilipe of Universo Nintendo, who posted his take on the Switch successor’s logo under the name “Nintendo Switch 2”. Many believe that Pyoro is indirectly hinting that the Switch successor is indeed called the “Nintendo Switch 2”, given the account’s past history of leaking news in a similar manner.

Pyoro might have just confirmed the name of the Switch successor being “Nintendo Switch 2”.

This is very big news and most likely will spark some controversy in the gaming community, do you consider the name good?#Nintendo #NintendoSwitch2 #Gaming pic.twitter.com/ZpzY1bgLwU
