Nintendo has officially filed a patent for an all new joy-con that features a hinge. Not a ton of details have surfaced other than its a hinged joy-con patent, but it does seem interesting. The file is completely in Japanese so it’s hard to decipher a lot of what’s going on. Only time will tell if this pans out and turns into something, but me thinks it could be for that heavily rumored “Switch Pro”…. We will see. It looks comfortable though. Keep it here for more details.
