The last thing I expected to do over the weekend was play Switch 2 using a PS5 DualSense, but that's exactly how I spent my Saturday. It turns out that, despite annoying limitations with other accessories, you can in fact use adapters to sync Sony's pad with Ninty's new handheld.
Admittedly, I wasn't originally planning to pair the Nintendo Switch 2 with a PS5 DualSense. The original goal was to check if my MayFlash Wii U GameCube Controller Adapter was compatible with the new best gaming handheld contender. Spoilers, it is, and while that means you can use your OG console gamepads instead of the fancy new Nintendo Online exclusive version, it's also a pathway to using a bunch of other pads too.
