"Switch 2's New C Button Unveiled Before Direct"

The anticipation for the Nintendo Switch 2 is reaching a fever pitch as its release in 2025 draws near. Fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming Nintendo Direct on April 2nd, hoping to get a glimpse of what's in store. However, it seems that Nintendo may have already given us a sneak peek at one of the new features of the Switch 2, thanks to the eagle-eyed community.

Nintendo Switch 2 Features The New C Button

Functionality Will Be Revealed During the Direct

Nintendo has recently launched a new smartphone app called Nintendo Today, designed to keep players up-to-date with the latest news and game information directly from their mobile devices. Observant fans have noticed that the app's promotional images on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store include a tantalizing hint about the Nintendo Switch 2. One image boldly declares, "Get updates on Nintendo Switch 2 news plus game info, videos, comics and more every day."

Upon closer examination, the image showcasing the Nintendo Switch 2 reveals what appears to be the final design of the console. This includes the newly designed Joycons and, most intriguingly, the confirmation of the mysterious C button on the right Joycon. Initially, the teaser for the Switch 2 in January featured this new button beneath the Home button as a simple black square, sparking speculation about its purpose—ranging from a new social feature to an advanced sensor.

With the final design now showcased on the Nintendo Today app, it's confirmed that this is indeed a C button. The exact functionality of this new addition, however, remains a mystery that is likely to be unveiled during the upcoming Nintendo Direct.
