Nintendo Sues Accessory Maker for Switch 2 Leak

Nintendo is suing Genki, a Japanese accessory maker, for showing a replica of the Nintendo Switch 2 before its official announcement.

Won’t be surprised that they will blame Genki for missing the target sales. After all it’s Genki that decided to price the console and games

Christopher15h ago

Aren't they already sold out on preorders in most places?

MDTunkown10h ago

It’s still not hard to find them here in Europe. Amazon fr even until this weekend sold them for 20 euro cheaper than market price.

US and Japan are sold out Australia is in stock and UK has limited stock in some retailers left

Agent7514h ago

The money that Nintendo lost on Wii U, they made up for on Switch, but still, the loss is still there. All guns blazing with Switch 2 pricing, suing Genki is a 'we need to make money' exercise. Goes without saying that Switch 2 will sell out at launch, but once it settles down, the masses won't pay it.

Genki abused its position as a partner to drum up hype for their business so they deserve the lawsuit however it's not going to be blamed for missing any targets

They should be renamed to "Suetendo" haha

I was once addicted to soap but now I'm clean, haha

It’s almost identical to the first Switch. No surprise.

Profchaos1h ago

Pretty clear cut here they were under a partnership agreement here they violated that

I want a full on 3d remake but I suppose HD2D is fine.

Snookies122d ago

So many people want HD2D, but I agree 100%. Chrono Trigger is in my top 3 of all-time. I want to see what this could be like re-imagined in full 3D. The sprites look good enough in the original, in my opinion. What would be amazing, is if they just went for both haha. Give us the HD2D to tide us over while they work on the full remake.

darthv722d ago

I'd imagine it would be something like... chrono cross

goken1d 21h ago

I am hoping a modern AAA return…

Chard1d 20h ago (Edited 1d 20h ago )

I'm still skeptical of HD-2D, and still want them to fix remaining foibles in the current Steam version. At any rate I've been seeing online that this rumour has been debunked

Knightofelemia1d 12h ago

I would jump for a remake of Chrono Trigger then hopefully a remake of Chrono Cross. I wish Xenogears and the Xenosaga trilogy also got a remake or a remaster.

jznrpg15h ago

Yes to Xenogears and Xenosaga!

jznrpg1d 12h ago

I am surprised it hasn’t been done already. It’s widely considered as one of the best RPGs all time. I’ll take it for sure. I want a Vagrant Story remake as well

Tim Sweeney: "We will return Fortnite to the US iOS App Store next week.

Epic puts forth a peace proposal: If Apple extends the court's friction-free, Apple-tax-free framework worldwide, we'll return Fortnite to the App Store worldwide and drop current and future litigation on the topic."
