Switch 2 Joy-Con 'HD Rumble' Won't Be As Loud As It Was On Switch

The vibrations in the Switch 1 Joy-Con can get a little annoying, so this’ll be a welcome change. Hopefully, it won’t impact any other games.

Everybody 1-2-Switch: Master Mode

Honestly, Everybody's 1-2 Switch might be the most over hated game of all time. You could do a lot worse for a 30$ party game.

Does that mean Joy Con 2’s will be less able to produce quirky sound effects like those in Super Mario Party, Mario Wonder and Kirby Star Allies?

I think there was a game that made the Joy-Cons rumble as loud as it can get which was later patched. It can get quite annoying at times so I turn it off in select games. But at least they're saying the feedback is much better and more nuanced compared to last gen.

“It may be more difficult to find hidden Joy-Con 2 in the minigame Joy-Con Hide & Seek."

Honestly having yet to play Everybody 1-2 Switch now this leaves me with a curious question:

1) Was the Hide & Seek Minigame already substantially easy to where this will be a welcome change?

Or

2) Was the Hide & Seek Minigame already generally hard enough where this will be an annoying change or one you have to work around by not hiding the joycon as well?

Always set rumble to 'off' so I didn't know this; you could edit the rumble levels on Wiimotes, but not Joycons?

i feel like if someone is upset they cant optimally play everybody 1-2 switch on their switch 2 its their own fault to an extend

How am I going to pick locks in Skyrim while putting the JoyCon to my ear now :'( ?

Can't really remember a game that HD rumble greatly improved. At least not one I played. It never touched Astro Bot, for instance. I feel like all these accessories are too expensive.

This is the best. Rumble without the annoying HMMMMMMMMMMMMUMMMMM

I have never used Rumble barring a few instances with the N64 and GCN!
I didn't care for it then. I won't use it now.
That's always the first setting to get changed! Rumble = OFF!

Considering how noisy the rumble can be in PlayStation 5 games like Astro Bot, hopefully this means, that HD rumble is even more advanced.

I've had the rumble turned off on my Switch for awhile now and I'll probably turn it off first thing on the Switch 2. Kind of just a controller feature I've come around to just finding annoying in recent years, keep it turned off on my PS5 too. Wish I could also turn off the light and speakers.

@speed_loafer the original 1-2-Switch is $50, the sequel is $30

That's a good thing, mostly because a lot of third parties don't know how to use HD rumble and turn it to the max (I even had to turn it off in some games). That being said, I was also disappointed with Mario & Luigi Brothership in that regard; it's mostly in cutscenes but it often makes the Switch squeak like in some third party games.

The game was way too easy anyway, that's even if anyone still plays it

Oh No!
No 1-2-Switch, No buy.

I massaged my dying mother's feet with the joycons when my Pokémon dynamaxed

@Bigmanfan
I've actually heard pretty good things about it. I think it mainly was a victim of very poor timing.

Does the switch pro controller have this feature. As never noticed it in a single game, all the Nintendo AAA.

When compared to a Sony dualsense which is £5 cheaper than a switch 2 pro controller you get more controller action and activity, any one that has played Astro Bot will tell you this.
Sound, haptics, trigger resistance etc.

Geez, so much people hate (HD) Rumble. 😭
I'm, on the other hand, wish more games had Rumble support. And an active one!
It's funny how 1st Guilty Gear out of all FGs on Switch actively uses rumble. For example, when you play as Potemkin, Joy-Cons rumble all the time, 'cause Potemkin is a big character.

@OldGamer999 DualSense even has analogue triggers, right? While Switch controllers Nintendoesn't...

I only care about the console noise level that’s why I only use switch and Series X.
But what always concern me was that HD rumble on the switch controller was so weak. I could barely feel it. It needs to be stronger way stronger.

Well, I once woke my wife up from a deep sleep because of the rumble in DK tropical freeze, so this sounds like a benefit for me

Ah, that's too bad! I love when rumble has some volume to it. It's one of the reasons I like the Dualsense so much in games that take advantage of it

@RudyC3 wait is that for real?

I love Nintendo's quirky innovations. I love motion controls. The weird GameCube controller is my favorite of all time. HD rumble is a waste of my ****ing money.

IDC about 1-2 switch, I'm more concerned about the sound effects like in Mario Wonder and the find a lost joycon feature

Volume is one thing, effectiveness is another. To me the Impulse Triggers on the Xbox One 2013 onwards controllers & Series S/X continues it besides the share button or Dualsense Haptics were more impress then HD Rumble.

So I'm not really missing much in games or the 'where is the controller vibration' feature on the OS menu it's put in.

Even PS4 Dualshock4 3 levels of vibrations I came across in Azure Gunvolt or yes even Clannad were more impressive.

NOOOO NOT EVERYBODY’S FAVORITE GAME!

@Wakkawipeout You could totally tell you were in the right spot from the sound being different from every other "notch" you'd feel in the HD rumble.
