We knew it was inevitable, but the first wild Nintendo Switch 2 unboxing has appeared.
In a leak that appears to have come from the UAB, a got their hands on the Nintendo Switch 2 and posted a very short 7 second quick unboxing video to YouTube. This has now been removed from YouTube but not before it was captured in other places.
It’s unclear how the person got the unit, but it’s likely that it was from a retailer or a factory. The key takeaway is once again just how large the actual unit is taking up the entire height of the box.
Interestingly enough, the unit cannot be used without an update that will go live on June 5th, so we’ll have to wait until launch to see real-world impressions of the Nintendo Switch 2 regardless of how many get out in the wild.
The Nintendo Switch 2 launches on June 5th which is just over a week away.
