This breakthrough in stick-gliding comes from what general manager Tetsuya Sasaki describes as a "long-running project at Nintendo with the grand ambition of developing the 'pinnacle of all controllers.'" "We’ve been researching it hard for a long time now," Sasaki continues.

The only Switch 2 accessory I was concerned about was the new Switch 2 Pro controller, which is now priced at a whopping $80. I already have multiple Switch Pro controllers at home and would prefer not to have to buy a new version.

While the Switch 2 Pro controller likely won’t launch until June 5 ( the same day as the Switch 2 itself) and a price wasn’t confirmed, we’re keeping an eye on when it’ll be available to pre-order. Unless Nintendo is keen on opening the door for more controller manufacturers,
