So, in summary.

  • Bigger
  • They put a USB port on top
  • The controls, where removed, don’t need the stupid plastic add on the the shoulder buttons

Nothing on specs, battery, games /etc.

Color me unimpressed

If it doesn’t have hall effect sticks, they aren’t paying attention.

With the magnetic attachment to the main console, having hall effect joysticks would be basically impossible

[–] Xuderis 3 points 18 hours ago

It depends on where the magnets are located, but I agree it’s an engineering consideration.

Also, using magnets instead of rails does mean that if you drop your switch, the joycons will go flying.

Wouldn't it only cause an interference when adding or removing a joycon? ie, when the magnetic field change isn't from the joystick.
