What does the mysterious C button do?

Zack Zwiezen: Perhaps the C button is just the new screenshot button and C stands for capture? That would be a really boring answer. Another option is that C stands for connect and this will be the button you use to sync stuff or maybe even connect to an OG Switch? The wildest idea I’ve come up with: The C button stands for camera. In this scenario, you’ll be able to hit it, and the Switch 2 controller will become a virtual in-game camera controlled via motion in games that support photo modes. The truth is that I don’t know what the C button will do, but hopefully it’s not something annoying that makes me hate using the Switch 2.

John Walker: I think it stands for “Connect.” It’ll auto-connect to other Switch 2s in the room, and other joy-cons, allowing instant co-op and game sharing.

Kenneth Shepard: C stands for “Car horn,” so the Switch 2 honks if you press it.

Ethan Gach: The C button stands for ChatGPT integration and will summon a Shigeru Miyamoto MiiBot that gives you tips for playing games.
