But that\u2019s not all\u2014there\u2019s been a massive redesign in how they attach to the console.

Totally game-changing!<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the new Joy-Con on the right ditches the traditional &#8220;motion IR camera&#8221; in favor of a spanking new button, nestled right under the Home key of the console. The purpose of this mysterious button is still under wraps, fueling speculation about possible new gameplay modes or interactive features. At the same time, what appears to be a fresh type of sensor has been added to the side of the controller.
