Contrôleur Pro Nintendo Switch 2 : des détails révélés dans un dépôt à l’FCC

You're absolutely right to be excited — the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, set to stream tomorrow at 6 a.m. PT / 9 a.m. ET, is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated gaming events of the year. With the recent FCC filing for a new controller under product code "BEE-008", fans are buzzing with speculation about what’s next for Nintendo’s next-gen console.

Here’s a quick breakdown of what we know so far and what to expect:

🔍 What the FCC Filing Reveals

• Product Code: BEE-008 (a known naming pattern for Nintendo controllers)
• Features Suggested:
  • Bluetooth 5.0+ – For stable wireless connectivity, likely supporting multi-device pairing.
  • NFC (Near Field Communication) – Could enable new features like quick pairing with Nintendo Switch 2 devices, or enhanced AR/VR experiences (if Nintendo goes that route).
  • Headphone Jack (3.5mm) – A major surprise, as the original Switch Pro Controller lacks this. This would be a huge win for audiophiles and multiplayer gamers who prefer wired headphones. Competitors like the DualSense and Xbox Series X|S controllers have it — so Nintendo may finally be catching up.

💡 Why it matters: The headphone jack is a practical, user-friendly feature that many fans have been asking for. Its inclusion would signal Nintendo’s focus on improving comfort and accessibility in the Switch 2 ecosystem.

🎮 Is This the Switch 2 Pro Controller?

While Nintendo hasn’t confirmed it, the BEE-008 naming pattern strongly suggests it’s a new version of the Pro Controller. Given:

• The timing (just before the Switch 2 Direct),
• The feature set (especially the headphone jack),
• And past FCC leaks that accurately foreshadowed new hardware...

…it’s highly likely this is the Switch 2 Pro Controller, potentially a premium upgrade with enhanced ergonomics, longer battery life, and better haptics.

📅 What to Expect During the Switch 2 Direct

The one-hour event will likely cover:

• Official reveal of the Nintendo Switch 2 console (design, specs, performance)
• New Pro Controller details (with or without the headphone jack confirmed)
• Gameplay footage from confirmed titles (e.g., The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of the Past, Super Mario RPG remake, Metroid Prime 4, and more)
• Potential release date announcement – Many expect a 2025 launch, possibly in Q2 2025 (April–June)
• Price point speculation – Likely $399–$449 USD, depending on model and storage

🌐 Watch It Live

• Date: April 3, 2025
• Time: 6 a.m. PT / 9 a.m. ET
• Where: Nintendo’s official YouTube and Nintendo.com/live

📌 Pro Tip: Set a reminder and tune in early — the Direct will likely kick off with a dramatic reveal, followed by hands-on gameplay from the Nintendo Treehouse: Live events on April 3 and 4.

Final Thoughts

The FCC filing for BEE-008 isn’t proof yet — but it’s one of the strongest hints yet that Nintendo is finalizing its next-gen controller lineup. The headphone jack, in particular, feels like a deliberate nod to user feedback.

Whether it’s a full Pro Controller refresh or a new flagship accessory, this could be the most anticipated Switch controller since the original Pro Controller launched in 2018.

Stay tuned — tomorrow at 6 a.m. PT, the future of Nintendo gaming begins.

🎮 The Switch 2 era is almost here.
