Genki at CES 2025: A Closer Look at the Nintendo Switch 2 Mockup

Genki, renowned for its handheld gaming accessories, unveiled a 3D-printed Nintendo Switch 2 mockup at CES 2025, revealing key features and confirming earlier speculation. The mockup, reportedly based on a black market acquisition, accurately reflects the Switch 2's dimensions, showcasing a design slightly larger than its predecessor, approaching the size of the Valve Steam Deck.

Key features highlighted include magnetic Joy-Con controllers, a second USB-C port, and an intriguing new "C" button. Genki CEO Eddie Tsai confirmed the magnetic nature of the SL and SR buttons on the Joy-Con, explaining a release mechanism involving pins and magnets. Despite the magnetic design, the Joy-Con reportedly maintain a secure grip during gameplay.

Enhanced Joy-Con Functionality:

Tsai further revealed optical sensors integrated into the Joy-Con's mounting channels. This suggests potential functionality as a mouse, a theory seemingly supported by recently leaked Switch 2 images. A new accessory, possibly attaching magnetically, may enable this mouse-like functionality.

Compatibility and Dimensions:

While the Switch 2 is slim enough to fit within the existing Switch dock, its design incorporates indentations preventing compatibility. The purpose of the additional USB-C port and the mysterious "C" button remains unknown.
