Joy-Con can be attached to the sides of the Switch console via rails, or detached and used wirelessly—either as a pair (comparable to a Wii Remote and Nunchuk), or divided between two different players. Up to 8 Joy-Con can connect to a single Switch console at a time.
The Nintendo Switch has a hidden Recovery Mode (RCM) feature, which can be accessed by powering off the unit, then using a specially-constructed jig to short-circuit two pins on the right-hand Joy-Con connector, and then holding down the volume up button while powering on the unit.
The console, with or without Joy-Con attached, can be placed into the Switch dock, a docking station with electrical connectors to connect the console to a power supply to charge its battery, and to a television via an HDMI connection for video/audio output. [41] The dock also includes two USB 2.0 ports and one USB 3.0 port. [102]
When fully charged, the battery duration for the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller lasts for around 40 hours. [8] The controller uses a USB-C connector for charging. It comes with a USB-C to USB Type-A charging cord, which can be connected to one of the USB-A 2.0 ports on the Switch dock.

Nintendo released the original Nintendo Switch in March 2017, which was developed in the wake of the commercial failure of the Wii U. [2] The Switch was promoted as a hybrid console with handheld, tabletop, and docked configurations, with Joy-Con controllers that could be separated from the main unit for these configurations.
It is mentioned that Nintendo repairs Joy-con controllers experiencing drift for free in the USA. However, there is no mention of their refusal to do so in the EU (they still charge £40 for the fix). Why is this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.25.39.98 11:38, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
These networks feature cross platform capabilities which allows users to use a single account. However, the services provided by both are still limited to the console connected (e.g. an Xbox One cannot download an Xbox 360 game, unless the game is part of the Xbox 360 to Xbox One backwards compatibility program).
