Nintendo’s upcoming Switch 2 has sparked plenty of chatter, and not all of it has been positive—particularly when it comes to the new Joy-Con design. Some fans have been vocal about a few quirks and shortcomings with the controllers, and as usual, third-party accessory maker DBrand has stepped in to offer its own solution.
Known for their knack in customizing and refining hardware aesthetics, DBrand wasted no time releasing a set of matching color skins tailored to the Switch 2’s new Joy-Cons. These aren’t just for looks either, as the company claims to address some of the usability complaints that popped up after the new controllers were revealed. It’s a move that reflects DBrand’s ongoing philosophy: if Nintendo doesn’t get it quite right, someone else will do the fix.
This early intervention from DBrand isn’t surprising given the firm’s track record of launching timely, practical accessories that tap into the community’s feedback. Whether you’re concerned about grip, wear, or just want your Switch 2 to stand out, these skins offer a quick, accessible way to tweak the new Joy-Cons in a manner Nintendo hasn’t provided out of the box.
In a landscape where console launches can bring both excitement and frustration, companies like DBrand remind us that innovation often comes from the margins as much as the mainstream. It’s worth watching how Nintendo responds and whether they’ll take cues from the aftermarket tweaks before the Switch 2 lands.
