It was June 5th, 2025, to be precise, and Nintendo had just launched the Switch 2, and gamers were losing their minds. The Joy-Con 2 controllers are a huge improvement with neat features like adjustable magnetic snaps to hold it on, and mouse-shaped control feel. These are not ordinary controllers—they make the gaming experience a lot more enjoyable.
We developed some cool accessories for the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons because, at Transnovo, we are fans of the game. So read on to find out What's New in Switch 2 Joy-Con Compatibility apart and how you can prepare for some serious gaming.
What’s Cool About Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con
Nintendo improved the Joy-Con controllers in several ways. Based on what Nintendo said, here's what's new:
-
Magnets That Snap: This new mantle for Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con holds the Joy-Cons in place with magnets. Very easy to click into place and stays put. Tap the button to instantly pop them off to switch from holding the console to playing on a table.
-
Better Shakes and Tilts: The rumble of the controllers has been improved with a new type of vibration (shakes and tilts). It feels so much like shooting a blaster in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond or taking a ride in Mario Kart World. The tilt inputs have also been made smoother, so Kirby Air Riders are super precise.
-
Talk to Friends: There is a C button on the right Joy-Con that is used to communicate with friends. It’s like Discord for friends while you play, even if you all have different games going. On the Switch 2 Joy-Con, your voice comes through crystal clear, while with a mic on the Switch, it can be really tinny. Free until March 31, 2026; thereafter, a Nintendo Switch Online plan is required.
-
Mouse-Like Control: If you slide a Joy-Con across a table, it behaves like a Switch 2 Joy-Con mouse. For example, it works well for selecting things in-game menus in games such as Civilization VII or doodling with art apps. It automates the process to be fast and simple.
-
Longer Battery and Strong Signal: The Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con technology offers Joy-Cons with a 500mAh battery that gets you up to 20 hours on a single charge. They also pair a little better with one another wirelessly, so you don't lose control when playing something like Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Switch 2 Edition or Super Smash Bros.
They render games more realistic, allow you to better communicate with your friends, and allow for a speedier setup. No matter how little or how much you play, the Joy-Con 2 makes every game more exciting.

Why Joy-Con Upgrades Matter for Gamers and Gear Makers
In addition to being awesome for players, the new Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con technology tricks are exciting for us as a gaming gear manufacturer. Those are bigger on the controller's side and are a magnet to stay on the Switch 2 itself, meaning existing cases won't fit properly. This means docks need to be able to keep up with the extra power – the battery lasts longer and charges faster. The mouse-like controls employ a special sensor, and the magnets require gear that has to be right so they don’t hinder each other performance as well.
These upgrades provide seamless and exciting gaming for you. The magnets allow you to quickly snap the Joy-Cons on or off in one second flat, getting you into the TV or on-the-go gameplay super easily. HD Rumble 2 — Every punch, jump or crash instantly feels more alive, more like you’re actually in the game. Mouse controls still unlock entirely new kinds of games, ones like planning massive battles in strategy titles that feel so natural on the Switch 2.
On top of that, with Game Chat, you can chat and chuckle with friends without having to install additional applications. All of these are fun, but to properly enjoy it, you need accessories that fall into Joy-Con like form factors to fit the new size with a grip that feels nice in hand and a charger so you never have to worry about running out of juice during a long play session.
Those extra-large Joy-Cons also come with the need for a more comfortable grip, particularly for quick movements in games such as Splatoon 4. The mouse controls rely on a sensor on the bottom, so whatever gear you use has to keep that spot uncovered. We at Transnovo considered all these details that ensure our stuff is 100% ready for What's New in Switch 2 Joy-Con Compatibility and the Switch 2 new technology.
