I dont think its a stretch to say that a lot of youtubers are popping up trying to cover a “Switch 2” However it does feel like there repeating the same infomation everyday while treating it as new. And while there are some who actually present meaningful ( such as this guy [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg9Y2fcT2Rs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg9Y2fcT2Rs)) But for every one good news coverage, theres 20 copy and paste videos that add nothing. So who should we look out for and avoid?

All of them? I literally have not seen a single one get it right yet, and im pretty sure the more legit ones like eurogamer based ones are doing it on purpose because they are scared of the stolen Lapsu$ Info.
All the ones that are not Nintendo themselves.
Nintendo itself is the most reliable. Even then, I wouldn’t 100% trust them until I can hold their next system in my hands.
All of them they lie
I don’t blame them they are content creators that have to put food on the table, but they lie for clicks
All of them.
They all just speculate and rehash info over and over, making monumental assumptions from cobbled together quotes and spurious connections between pieces of information. None of them know anything for sure and anything that they’ve said so far, which turns out to be correct, is purely coincidental.
they’re all grifters!
Yes.
Avoid every single one of them. Nobody making a YouTube channel has an info scoop on Nintendo’s top secret console transition roadmap. So all you’re going to find is speculation, lies, or statements without substance.
It’s crazy. People trying to create a hype cycle before a console or any software is announced. It benefits nobody.
Nin10doland is pretty bad. On the other hand Arlo only seems to talk whenever legitimate news comes out and his newest video does a really good job talking about what we know.
People here are saying “no one?” Like Nintendo hasnt sent out dev kits and there are official court documents stating that both Microsoft and Sony expect a new console next year.
“YouTubers” aren’t Journalists. All they do is regurgitate random sources. None of them are reliable
I would listen to trustworthy journalists (e.g. Bloomberg, Eurogamer, etc.) rather than listening to random YouTubers (since most of their output is crap).
There are genuine leaks floating around (like the NVN2 stuff in the Nvidia source code leak) and other info (e.g. tidbits revealed in the Microsoft/Activision hearings), so the “no leak is ever correct” logic goes too far in the other direction.
If they constantly push videos each morning with the word ‘leak’ plastered in the title more times than not , spawnwave, then take it with an entire salt mine.
