[link] - Rumor: Nintendo Switch 2 Could Have Magnetic Joy-Cons
A rumor claims that the next Nintendo console could have magnetic Joy-Cons, replacing the rail system used by the current Switch Joy-Cons.

Joysticks aside, there have been plenty of rumors regarding the Switch successor’s hardware and features, which are said to continue the Switch’s design ethos of providing players with both portable and standard gameplay modes. Earlier this year, it was reported that the next Nintendo system will be powered by a custom Nvidia processor chip, continuing the relationship that Nintendo and Nvidia have for current Switch models. Sources also believe that the Switch 2 will feature an LCD touchscreen as a cost-cutting measure.

While Vandal’s latest claims haven’t been officially verified yet, it is worth mentioning that it correctly predicted some of the updated Switch OLED console’s features ahead of its launch in 2021, and as noted before, the supposed magnetic Joy-Con controllers have been mentioned in previous rumors. There is still no official word on when the Nintendo Switch follow-up will be announced, but insiders think that the system could hit store shelves as early as next year.
