To disable the controller switch, you will need to follow a few simple steps. Whether you are using Joy-Cons or a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, the process remains the same. Here’s how you can do it:
1. Ensure that your Joy-Cons or Pro Controller are wirelessly connected to your Nintendo Switch device. If they are not connected, you can do so by attaching them to the sides of the Switch or by pairing them via Bluetooth.
2. Once your controllers are connected, you need to detach them from the Nintendo Switch device. Gently slide the Joy-Cons off the sides of the Switch or disconnect the Pro Controller by holding the release button on the back of the controller and sliding it upwards.
3. With the controllers now detached and wirelessly connected to the Switch, you can proceed to turn them off. On top of each Joy-Con or the Pro Controller, you will find a small black button.
4. Press the black button on top of the Joy-Con or Pro Controller, and you should notice the lights on the controller turn off. This indicates that the controllers have been successfully turned off.
It’s important to note that turning off the controllers will not power down the Nintendo Switch device itself. The Switch will remain on, and you can continue using it with other controllers or in handheld mode.
If you wish to turn off the Nintendo Switch device completely, you can do so by holding down the power button on the top of the Switch until a power menu appears on the screen. From there, you can select the “Power Options” and choose to either put the device into sleep mode or power it off entirely.
In conclusion, to disable the Joy-Cons or Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, you need to detach them from the Switch while they are wirelessly connected. Press the black button on top of the controller, and the lights will turn off, indicating that the controllers have been successfully turned off. Remember that this only disables the controllers and does not power down the Nintendo Switch device itself.
