What the hell is going on with Nintendo’s Switch hardware?

An article in the Wall Street Journal about the Switch hardware reveals that Nintendo is trying to address the lack of a traditional controller in the system, and it’s trying to make that a bigger priority.

“We need a lot of power on our side, and we don’t want to go back to the days where we didn’t have a traditional joystick and we didn´t have a conventional controller,” said Shuhei Yoshida, Nintendo’s president of worldwide studios and entertainment. 

“So what we’re trying to do is make it a gamepad.

And we want to do it on a Switch.”

The Switch has a standard gamepad on the back, but it’s a small one.

That’s the controller that has been standard in most of the console’s launches, but that’s not the one that’s used for gameplay.

It’s a little bigger than a standard controller, and the Switch doesn’t support any kind of motion controls at all, and as you’d expect, the only way to use the Switch’s motion controls is to use them.

“So if you’ve got a Joy-Con on your TV, you can have the Joy-Cons that you attach to your TV and use them in the game,” Yoshida said.

“We’re trying out a new way to do that, and so that way, we can make sure that we have a lot more power on the side.

We can’t just say, ‘Oh, I’m going to use it as a controller and we’ll have no problem with motion controls.'”

We’re still looking at all the options, and that will come from a lot deeper thinking.” 

This means that the Switch can still support motion controls, but with a larger number of buttons, which is something Nintendo has struggled with for the last few years.

The Switch can have a variety of motion-based controls, including one that allows you to hold a Joycon in one hand and play a game on the other, but in the last couple of years, the Switch has been focusing heavily on the use of Joycon.

That’s been a big focus for Nintendo, and in an interview with GameSpot in 2017, Yoshida discussed the Switch as an alternative to the Wii U and PS4.”

What we have in the Switch is more of a game console than a traditional gamepad, because it doesn’t have any analogue sticks.

So it has two analogue sticks that you can hold in one of the two hands,” Yoshidas said. 

The Switch also has two analog sticks that can be used to move the gamepad and the buttons on the Switch. 

There are also two motion sensors on the front of the Switch, and Nintendo is looking into ways to make it easier to use these sensors.

The Switch hardware has been on display in many ways over the last year, including the Switch itself, a $399 system that runs the popular Wii U games. 

Now, with the Switch out in the wild, it’s time to start thinking about how to make this a real possibility for Nintendo.
