Video: A look at Switch’s fantastic new feature of helping you find detached controllers
Switch received a number of new features tonight part of the 3.0.0 update. Among them is the ability to find paired controllers within communication range by activating the vibration feature.
The way it works is pretty simple. You simply need to visit the “Controllers” section on the Home Menu, choose the “Find Controllers” option, and tap on any of the controllers you see on the screen. Any controllers in range will then rumble and essentially emit a sound so that you can locate them.
Here’s a good look at the feature:

This could really come in handy if you’ve removed your Joy-Con, but are unsure where you’ve placed them. If they’re nearby, the vibration and sound should help you out.
