Nintendo Switch 2 has been 'leaked' to the black market?

According to information from the Xiahongshu forum (China), a user posted a screenshot of a conversation with a seller on the black market, saying they were selling a Nintendo Switch 2 for 290,000 yuan (about 39,780 USD, equivalent to 1 billion VND), including the dock and Joy-Con controller.

This price is dozens of times higher than the initial prediction of the retail price of Nintendo Switch 2, which surprised many people.

However, this user said that they are not targeting ordinary users but rather accessory manufacturers who are willing to pay for early access to real devices, from which to test and develop their products.

Notably, this user is the same person who leaked the CAD model of the Nintendo Switch 2 last year, before the official design was announced. This has led many to believe that the information about the Nintendo Switch 2 being sold on the black market could be true.

However, there is no way to verify the authenticity of this information.

Meanwhile, the gaming community is eagerly awaiting the upcoming Nintendo Direct event to get a clearer look at the Nintendo Switch 2, including its design, features, price, and official release date.
