"Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller Upgrade Hinted in FCC Filing"

The highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 Direct is just around the corner, set to take place tomorrow, offering fans their first official glimpse into Nintendo's plans for its next-generation console. As excitement builds, a recent FCC filing has sparked speculation about what the future might hold, particularly concerning the rumored Switch 2 Pro Controller.

Discovered by eagle-eyed fans on Famiboards and reported by prominent Nintendo news outlets like GoNintendo, this filing under product code "BEE-008" appears to reference a new gaming controller. While Nintendo has yet to confirm any details regarding the Switch 2 Pro Controller, several features mentioned in the filing suggest it could indeed be the upcoming controller. Among these features are Bluetooth and NFC capabilities, which align with expectations for a premium controller.

One notable aspect highlighted by this filing is the potential inclusion of a headphone jack, a feature absent from the original Switch Pro Controller but present in competitors' controllers like the DualSense and Xbox Series controllers. If accurate, this addition would enhance user convenience and compatibility.

Although these filings often provide early insights into Nintendo's product roadmap, it remains speculative until further official announcements. Fans will need to wait until tomorrow’s direct event for confirmation. The Switch 2 Direct will air live tomorrow at 6:00 AM PT / 9:00 AM ET across Nintendo’s official channels, promising a comprehensive overview of the Switch 2.

In addition to the main presentation, two Treehouse: Live events focused on Nintendo Switch 2 gameplay are scheduled for April 3rd and 4th, beginning at 7:00 AM PT each day. Stay tuned for updates as we inch closer to uncovering the future of Nintendo gaming.
