The next Nintendo console is on its way, and we finally have official confirmation that it'll be called the Nintendo Switch 2. We'll have to wait until a Direct stream on February 2nd to hear specific details about games and processing power, but a reveal video has given us initial details about the console's design, features, and perhaps most interestingly, the updated Joy-Con controllers.
The Joy-Cons have been paramount to the original Nintendo Switch's versatility, but they haven't come without their issues. For a start, they've been plagued with more stick drift problems than the first batch of DualSense controllers, so I don't blame you for hoping for more longevity. Most of the best PC controllers these days, including some of the best Nintendo Switch controllers, now use Hall Sensor thumbsticks which are immune to stick drift. Annoyingly, we can't confirm or deny the leaks from the last few weeks saying that the new Joy-Cons will utilize this tech.
