Another potential Nintendo Switch 2 patent is making the rounds, this time suggesting that the system can be turned upside down to change the positions of the headphone and USB ports.
With the current Switch, there’s just one way to orient the system and attach the controllers. With the upcoming console, however, you now “snap on” the Joy-Con with magnets. Additionally, now it seems it’ll be possible to turn the controllers upside down and have them set in the “wrong” side of the system.

Posted on 8 months ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
Previously, we’ve gone over new retro catalogs that Nintendo should add to their Nintendo Switch Online service – including games from Nintendo DS as a hypothetical new addition. Today, however, we’re going over the platforms Nintendo Switch Online already has. It has quite a few, with NES, SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo 64 all being included for some time now. That said, each platform is missing at least one notable game, and some are missing several.
