Joy-Con
Nintendo handheld controller
Joy-Con is a detachable controller for the Nintendo Switch gaming console.
The Switch ships with two Joy-Cons—left and right—that attach to the sides of the portable screen or connect wirelessly for TV play.
Each can function as an independent controller for multiplayer games: We each grabbed a Joy-Con for Mario Kart.
The controllers feature motion sensing and a unique "HD rumble" that simulates tactile sensations.
