Genki in specific claimed this was…
The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of leaks and speculation, with alleged images, specs, and rumors about the Nintendo Switch 2 dominating the gaming news cycle. Until Nintendo officially announces something about the much-anticipated console, this flurry of speculation is likely to continue. With that said, let’s continue…
