One of the more prominent leakers of Nintendo Switch 2 information was NextHandheld who has recently doubled down on the newly announced platform’s Joy-Con controller having Hall Effect joysticks. NextHandheld says that this is evident in a system teardown. One of the biggest issues with the original Joy-Con controllers was the prominence of stick drift, which Nintendo was forced to admit is an issue with the system. Nintendo has yet to specify whether the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Cons feature Hall Effect joysticks, but when we eventually hear, we will let you know. If you are curious about Hall Effect joysticks then there’s a good explanation about them on Windows Central, which you can read below.
