One of the most rumored aspects about the successor to the Nintendo Switch is its backwards compatibility with games and accessories that we find on the big ‘n consoles today. This is known in a new report Joy-Con The following hardware will be different.
According to Vandal, who has reported accurate information about Switch OLED in the past, he claims to have details from manufacturers working alongside Nintendo. This is mentioned in their new report The Switch 2 will have Joy-Cons that will magnetically connect to the console. Thus, it is noted that current hardware controls will not be compatible with the switch’s successor.
Because the current Switch uses a rail system to connect Joy-Cons, it’s very likely these controllers won’t be used on the next Big N console. Currently available Pro controllers will still be usableBecause these work wirelessly.
Let us remember that previous reports indicated that the Switch 2 will be a larger console than the current Switch, so there was always doubt as to whether the Joy-Con could be attached to this new console. This is information that Vandal reaffirms. Although specific details have not been released, It’s been noted that the console won’t arrive on what appears to be Steam Day. Although it seems physically impossible to connect these controls with hardware, it cannot be ruled out that they could be connected wirelessly.
Although Vandal has shared accurate information in the past, we’ll have to wait for Nintendo to reveal official details about its next console. According to other reports, Switch 2 will arrive on March 2025, so an event could be held later this year to reveal the successor to its current console. On a related note, this will be the new dock for the Switch 2. Likewise, it will be the price of this console.
Author’s note:
It’s a shame that the Joy-Con, an item that has been trying to collect for years, isn’t at least physically compatible with the new console. However, it was clear as soon as it was announced that the Switch 2 would be much bigger than the current console.
