A new patent from Nintendo hints at a unique feature for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 – the ability to use the Joy-Con controllers upside down. This innovative design would allow users to insert the controllers in opposite sides, prompting the display to flip, similar to how smartphones or tablets rotate. The patent suggests that this feature could facilitate easier access to ports like the 3.5mm headphone jack, which is typically located on the top of the console. The new system is also set to include two USB-C ports, one at the bottom and one slightly to the side on top, potentially requiring users to rotate the device for charging or connecting accessories. With some games already designed for portrait orientation on the original Switch, it seems Nintendo is exploring new ways to enhance the gaming experience with its successor. Stay tuned for more updates on the Nintendo Switch 2.
