Nintendo Switch 2 Controllers and Joy-Cons

The Nintendo Switch 2 controller lineup offers flexible options for every type of gamer. At its core are the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con 2 controllers and the Nintendo Switch Pro 2 Controller, both designed to fit your preferred style whether in handheld, TV mode, or multiplayer mode. Best of all, you can continue using your favorite Nintendo Switch remotes from the original system, though certain new features like mouse controls are exclusive to the Joy-Con 2.

What Sets the Joy-Con 2 Apart?

The redesigned Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con 2 delivers major usability upgrades. These Nintendo Switch two joy cons are approximately half an inch longer than the originals, providing a more comfortable grip for hands of all sizes. The expanded analog sticks and slightly larger buttons reduce wrist strain and improve accuracy.

Magnetic attachments now replace the old slide rails, so your Joy-Con 2 controllers snap securely into place with a satisfying "thunk". When you're ready to switch to tabletop mode, simply press the release button on the back to disengage the magnetic lock. Inside, HD rumble 2 delivers richer, more immersive vibration feedback that brings every in-game action to life.

GameChat and Dual Mouse Mode: Built-In Firsts

On the right Nintendo Switch Joy-Con 2 sits a new “C” button, which launches the innovative GameChat voice and video chat feature. This allows you to hang out with up to 12 friends and even share your screen in real time. If you are using an original Nintendo 2 controller without a C button, you can still join the fun by accessing GameChat through the HOME Menu.

Another standout feature is the mouse sensor located on both the left and right Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con 2. This allows you to use your controllers like a cursor on any flat surface, perfect for strategy games like Civilization VII or navigation-heavy titles. You can even use both controllers simultaneously for dual-mouse gameplay in compatible titles.

Battery life has been boosted to around 20 hours per Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con 2, and they recharge by snapping onto the console or using the Joy-Con 2 charging grip.
