As much as Nintendo’s games try to emphasize the “fun” first, the company’s consoles themselves similarly want to spark joy in odd, though surprisingly endearing, ways. Even before the Switch 2’s launch, Nintendo shared a few odd and cutesy features beyond the headlining mouse controls and GameChat that are meant to remind you you’re not just plugging in any bog-standard gaming machine, especially not when you can play a song with your Joy-Cons on the connection screen.
