Release on May 22nd (Theory)
Okay so, I've been researching some info and noticed some facts that make A LOT of sense with this theory, I'm pretty sure the release it's May 22nd and I have multiple reasons (Or maybe I'm just crazy):
- Nintendo are abusing with number 2 during the marketing: The reveal was released at 22:02 (Japanese hour), the video is 2 minutes and 22 seconds long, and the Direct is April 2nd, which is also 2 months, 2 weeks and 2 days since the console was revealed. So releasing it May 22 makes a lot of sense with this.
- Nintendo used to release their products on Friday, but they have been lately releasing them on thursdays, and ofc May 22 is Thursday.
- The release would be exactly 50 days after the official Switch 2 Direct, which is indeed the same that happened with Switch 1.
- Switch 1 was released before the event "Nintendo Switch 1 experience" finished in some cities (Like Seoul), this would be the same case for Nintendo Switch 2 (in Seoul, the event is on June).
And honestly I don't even know if there are more reasons, but this makes a lot of sense and I hardly believe it's a coincidence, I don't think Nintendo would miss a chance as good as this to release it this day. What do you guys think?
