After tons of rumors and leaks, Nintendo released its first Switch 2 trailer this week.
For anyone worried about the company's lack of marketing or promotion ahead of this big announcement, it doesn't seem to have affected the reveal – with the trailer still number one on YouTube days later.
Nintendo of America's YouTube trailer has already racked up a whopping 18 million views in less than 48 hours (surpassing the number of views the original Switch trailer at the same time), and Nintendo's Japanese version of the trailer it now has seven million views. As VGC expiresthis puts it ahead of the PlayStation 5 which was launched in 2020, which had around 13 million views after two days.
As for the Switch 2 trailer on social media, so far NoA's post has garnered more than 40 million views on 'X', and the video shared by Nintendo's Japanese account has surpassed 50 million views. A Bloomberg report suggests that Nintendo has around 20 million units ready to go in the Switch 2's first year of life.
Nintendo will reveal more about the Switch 2 in an upcoming Direct on April 2, 2025.
