Last week’s formal unveiling of the Switch 2 highlighted various new aspects of the Nintendo hybrid console, among them a novel attachment method for Joy-Cons. However, could you explain the specifics? On the official Switch 2 website, Nintendo provided a more in-depth look at this design, demonstrating how the controller attaches and detaches from the device.
Just like the initial design of Joy-Cons, pressing a specific button releases the controller. While it’s not immediately evident what exact mechanical function this button controls, based on the layout of the Switch 2, it appears that the animation indicates the magnetism is deactivated when this button is pressed.
Instead of the old sliding mechanism using rails and a small plastic anchor point, the new Joy-Cons might employ a magnetic attachment system. This change could potentially offer a sturdier and more durable way to keep the controllers secure, addressing concerns about the breakdown of the rail system over time – one of the drawbacks experienced with the original Joy-Cons, along with issues like joystick drift.
We have many unanswered questions about the Switch 2, but we won’t wait long as Nintendo is planning to share updates on this new console during their April 2nd Direct broadcast. Fans are anxiously anticipating details like its release date, price, and the specifications of the device itself.
One fact we can confirm is that prior to its release, there will be an opportunity for people to test the new system at special “Experience events” organized by Nintendo. If your name is chosen in a draw, you’ll have the chance to visit one of many locations worldwide and personally experience the console.
