What could be the new pass button to switch 2?

Perhaps the most puzzled ambiguity left by the Switch 2 advertisement will be what the new button will be used at the bottom of Joy CON. Below a handful of ideas about what can (or not) be used.

Just the new game button

The simplest interpretation of this button (and the least interesting) is that it is simply that other entry developers can integrate into control schemes.

The presence of another button to reach maps and menus and anything else that developers see it may be suitable for games on a large scale. Sony and Microsoft can plan to add a similar button to the following keyboard control units and that Nintendo is applying to this curve to stay in line with the direction. The main third parties may have the occurrence of this next transformation, and you will ask to include the feature now.

At the same time, every new button adds a layer of complexity and the inability to reach, which seems to be a variety of Nintendo is unlikely to adopt. It is also placed in an embarrassing position where players can accidentally press the home page button instead, which takes them out of the game. Such a button can make old joy, Pro Switch control units, and external control units are unnecessarily compatible with new games with new games. For all these reasons, it may not be the new game button, nor should it be.

A programmed button

My ideal situation-in reaching a wonderful new feature that we do not know yet-is that this button can be programmed for anything the player desires. Since Switch 2 does not have the background oxages carried out by modern console, this will be a nice alternative.

Think about something like how to process Apple with the procedure button on the last iPhone devices. Nintendo can provide some pre -settings that cover most of the players, such as immediate access to the list of friends or photo library, as well as the option to set specific jobs for the user. It can provoke a brief list that allows you to choose from a handful of chosen functions, perhaps in conjunction with the D-Pad or touch screen inputs.

I don’t expect Nintendo give players this level of control of their controls, but for me, it will be the best result of what this button could be. In addition, a brief list of Nintendo’s answer can be on the overlap lists that PlayStation and Xbox used for generations.

Mouse button

It seems that Joy-Cons can become mice now thanks to the optical sensors and new tapes, but the question is, how can you switch this feature? Some games are likely to force you, but what about system lists? The unrestricted Joy-Con button will have a meaning.

I say “some” because this would make the backward button mainly in the mobile situation. Farah in his belt can change the change or that the mouse situation is always active when the control units control. Therefore, although I will not rule out Nintendo using the button in this way, there are more easy ways to implement mouse mode and less button.

Nub control

In the leaks, this “C” button had it. This made the Internet predict the feature that can be linked to the letter. Nintendo reveals the width of the button without a label that pours a touch of cold water on speculation, but many speculative concepts have an advantage.

Nintendo historically used the message “C” in cooperation with a stick, whether it was on the Gamecube console or the new nintendo 3ds line. What if what we look at is not actually a button at all, but it is NUB that dust can be shredded slightly in four directions as inputs?

Well, it is clear that it is not, but I had to say that. The next idea is a more logical explanation for “C” was not.

The features of the Switch community are not all exist, with no way to interact with friends or the world’s wider world. It is a clear area of ​​growth in key 2, and this button may be a key to reaching it.

If this community button only displays the list of friends, I will see it as a lost opportunity to make this option to be programmed instead. But what if it activates the community’s overlapping to spread screenshots and clips into a MiVERSE-SQUE ecosystem, or chat with friends? Perhaps if you are participating in other players, this may be a fast way to reach and manage the group? Whatever it is, I hope this societal integration will be multi -functional and smooth, which gives us a reason to pressure the button often and unfortunately.

There is a sea of ​​possibilities here, and the bolder Nintendo you want to get the advantages of society, the better. Identification card Welcome to the return Especially given that we are all in harmony with the absurdity of social media more than ever.

The microphone mute button

Voice chat is a decisive element in gaming societies, and something wrong in Nintendo wrongly in the Nintendo Switch smartphone application. My money on nintendo is merged directly into the 2 -up switch after the uproar caused by this error (and with more strength to work with it, there is no excuse for not that).

If the audio chat is passed on the system, this may actively work for a similarly mute cute button on PlayStation control units. This fast switch is more convenient than sifting a list to conceal yourself on Xbox. The warning here is that what makes the PlayStation button works is how it lights up to visually signal when it’s silent, while the Switch 2 button does not seem able to do so (we can see it).

I find this very reasonable use of mystery. I just hope that this is possible for people like me who are not social players.

Or something else completely

Nintendo will work Nintendo, for the better or worse. The policy -loving company may have some uses outside the box for this button that we cannot imagine. On everything we know, Mario Quinn’s voice can play to drive and nothing else. It will be so stupid that I may love it, so I hope he would do it.

We will not discover this until Switch 2 Nintendo Direct Information explodes on April 2. Until then, continue to predict what this Joy-Con add. You still catch up with the knees? Here is all that we know about key 2 so far.
