I don't follow leaks unless they're shoved in my face on Reddit, so this was all new to me, but it's a bit sad to see everyone online call it lame

candylure.bsky.social•39 days ago

I know. I genuinely think leakers just ruin everything.

tyler234.bsky.social•39 days ago

People on the internet just hate the concept of surprises.

itspapamac.bsky.social•39 days ago

I've seen a serial leaker use the excuse of "I want to control people's expectations so they aren't disappointed" when they got called out for ruining announcements for a game.

Modern leak culture is exhausting. It's even worse when a leaker has an ego.

Oh yeah that totally doesn’t make him sound like a Megalomaniac.

I hope the new joycons come in a variety of colors. But the colored inserts on the side of the console have me concerned (unless those can also pop out and be replaced).

sockynoob.bsky.social•39 days ago

Looks boring as hell to me

lotusdxd.bsky.social•39 days ago

I so badly wanna go into April knowing nothing, but I have a feeling we're going to know at least a couple things from leakers.

gtothenextlevel.com•39 days ago

Exactly. I did everything I could to avoid any people thinking they are doing a civic duty by leaking details that may not even be true. It’s 100% for clout; they don’t care about us.

I missed it when all we knew about a new Nintendo console were 2 letters

kamensky.bsky.social•39 days ago

We knew about Mario kart cause of leakers . That was a thing. Also, I’ll say this. I love leaks. They make me hyped

jonesthemoblin.bsky.social•39 days ago

That's the benefit of being a guy who sees the word "leak" and goes "hahaha. Fuck you."

I knew nothing about the Switch 2 prior to today other than that it kept getting leaked.

jhock115.bsky.social•39 days ago

Leak culture in general is so obnoxious. When they become so widespread that they get treated like being official news annoys me to no end

I plugged my Switch in to charge earlier before going on vacation and five minutes later the Switch 2 was announced

I made this happen, I am a God

mrgrabs.bsky.social•39 days ago

Can you do us all a favor and charge your Playstation Vita?

jackstamper.bsky.social•34 days ago

I actually prefer how the leaks worked out. It was a fun number of weeks, with the Trailer working as a confirmation. I would like some surprises, but I like the hype to continue with small leaks.

zamandius.bsky.social•39 days ago

I'm SOOOO TIRED of leaks 😡😡

jarzardart.bsky.social•39 days ago

I just hope they make some with different colors or something customizable in the future.

ashmit11.bsky.social•32 days ago

Hey Ant @antdude.bsky.social , where ur next vid? You haven't given us an update for a while.

justjynn89.bsky.social•39 days ago

Jokes on them, i ignored the leakers for the most part other than the magnetic joy cons

strain42.bsky.social•39 days ago

I genuinely find leaks so boring and unappealing. Like as an Atlus fan, the days of "Midori" were so frustrating.

vixay.bsky.social•39 days ago

That was a wild ride lol

pinapplespotter.bsky.social•39 days ago

I don’t read spoilers, leaks, or rumors anymore after I realized how little satisfaction I felt from playing or watching stuff I was interested in. Even Directs.

I heard commentary from different groups about the S2 teaser, w/ some saying it was boring b/c it all leaked— and that’s just irksome.

pinapplespotter.bsky.social•39 days ago

We talk about the quality of social media going down the toilet, but legitimately, leak culture is a great example of how corruptive the focus on engagement metrics is.

Most guessed the Switch 2 was just an improved iteration and I just don’t need someone to form that thought for me.

wootmasterzorks.bsky.social•39 days ago

Hear, hear. I had no enthusiasm for the reveal because of the leakers who ruined the surprise.

aura6425.bsky.social•39 days ago

By April we'll find out the entire launch lineup for the Switch 2, I guarantee it

tony-ttek.bsky.social•39 days ago

Thank god games very rarely leak, and if they do its pretty vague stuff like “🍄🐘🌼” or smthn like that lmao

thechrispranger.bsky.social•39 days ago

I'm hoping for Koizumi to do a hardware showcase where he demonstrates how the right Joycon functions as a massage gun for tense muscles and the left Joycon makes a constant high-pitch frequency that attracts ants and that it's central to a mode in the next Pikmin game.

booker.bsky.social•39 days ago

leak the next time you’re gonna hop in a game with the boys to crank 90s

antdude.bsky.social•39 days ago

lorekeeperazurai.bsky.social•39 days ago

Yeah it really did make the announcement feel boring.
