Nintendo Switch 2 is set to introduce HD Rumble 2, according to the company.
That news comes from an interview just published today. With HD Rumble 2, it seems that Nintendo is bringing in a greater deal of vibrations that will also be stronger and have “more realistic” and “quicker response times”.
Nintendo Switch 2 producer Kouichi Kawamoto shared the following regarding HD Rumble 2:
“Also, you can’t tell just by looking at it, but HD Rumble 2 for Switch 2 has been changed to allow for a wider variety of vibrations. The HD Rumble in the Joy-Con controllers for Switch was able to create different sensations of touch, but because of the size of Joy-Con itself, we weren’t able to make the vibration as strong as in the controllers for Nintendo GameCube. However, the HD Rumble 2 that’s installed this time not only provides stronger vibration, but also feels more realistic and has quicker response times. The hardware features of Switch 2, including Joy-Con 2, are introduced in Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour so we hope that everyone will try them out.”
Thanks to Nintendo for the tidbit above. It was also shared by the development team today that Super Nintendo Switch was considered as the console’s name. Read about that here.
