dBrand made a Joy-Con holder with a hinge

dBrand’s new controller accessory, officially named the ‘Joy-Lock Controller Holder’, looks like a neat solution for those who find the default Joy-Con grip (that Nintendo include bundled with every Switch 2) to be somewhat uncomfortable.

Rather than have the Joy-Con controllers positioned at a single parallel angle, this new magnetic holder lets you adjust where the controllers sit thanks to a neat ratcheting, articulating hinge. From what dBrand tell me this new adjustable controller holder can go from mimicking that parallel default position, right up to sitting at a much wider spread — with the maximum position being one that’s “even wider than the Xbox controller“.

dBrand shared that “there’s an angle for every user and a phenomenally satisfying tactile click between each setting”.

I know a fair few folks on the Hanafuda Club Discord who are always on the look out for options to improve the ergonomics of using the Switch 2, and the Switch 2 Joy-Con — this looks like it may well be a viable option.

They’re available now for just under $20.
