Everyskinnyg we comprehend about the Switch 2’s Joy-Con regulatelers

The arrival of the Nintfinisho Switch 2 heralds some much-necessitateed betterments over its predecessor, especiassociate its Joy-Con regulatelers. Here’s a rapid fracturedown of what the proclaimment trailer showed us about the Switch 2’s Joy-Cons.

Before the official uncover of the console, there were rumors alluding to how the novel Joy-Cons would toil and their inside mechanisms. The most convey inant rumor was that they were held to the console via magnets, and in the uncover video, that eunites to be the case. The video features the Joy-Con seemingly snapping to a bdeficiency surface as though drawed by a magnetic force.

The video shows that the Joy-Cons have a protrusion that fits to an oval depression in the main body of the console, plugging into ports (with that iconic Nintfinisho Switch “snap” sound) instead of sliding down rails. There’s also a button at the top of each regulateler that is ostensibly how the Joy-Cons split from the main console, but the uncover video didn’t show that in action. According to some of the Switch 2 rumors increateed on by The Verge, pressing that button actuates a pin that will push the Joy-Cons away from the console, and in the video, you can see on the inside track of each regulateler a petite circle at the top that sees appreciate it pushes out.

The Joy-Cons, appreciate the Switch 2 itself, are huger. In the version of the console shown in the proclaimment video, they’re bdeficiency with accents in the traditional red and blue colors from the distinct Switch. Other elements from the previous Joy-Cons are still there, appreciate the indicator airys, the SL / SP buttons that are evident when the Joy-Cons are being engaged individuassociate, and holes where the regulateler straps loop thcimpolite. The left Joy-Con still has its square screensboiling button and the right one has the Home button, but straightforwardly below that is a novel button whose function is still unverifyed.

The hugegest problem plaguing the distinct Switch Joy-Cons was a condition comprehendn as Joy-Con drift. Users increateed that their analog sticks would disjoin shiftment without input from the joiner, benevolent of appreciate a cursor moving on a computer screen without moving the moengage. Nintfinisho didn’t split any adviseation about the inside mechanisms powering the Joy-Cons, so we don’t comprehend how susceptible they will be to this problem.
