PowerA Unveils Accessories for Nintendo Switch 2

Alright, so here’s the thing. PowerA’s got this new lineup of accessories for the Nintendo Switch 2, which, by the way, I didn’t even realize we’re already getting hyped about. Anyway, these accessories are all official—so don’t worry, no shady knockoffs here—and they’re made to meet Nintendo’s crazy high standards. I mean, I wonder what those standards actually look like. Is there a secret Nintendo inspection room or something?

Here’s what’s cool: they’re using this Hall Effect tech. Don’t ask me how it works, but apparently, it’s all about magnetic sensors and makes your thumbstick experience feel super smooth and long-lasting. Fancy, huh? Honestly, it sounds like the stuff of sci-fi. I half expect these controllers to make my gaming pro-level, but then again, maybe I’m just bad.

So, PowerA’s throwing these up for grabs in June. You can snag them on their site, Amazon, and who knows where else. Dive into what’s on offer:

First up, the Advantage Wired Controller. Price tag? $39.99. It’s built for style—and probably function too—with Hall Effect thumbsticks to fight drift. Two mappable buttons, whatever that means, and a C Button for GameChat. There’s onboard audio with EQ stuff—if that tickles your brain—and anti-friction rings. Ten-foot cable (because, you know, we all love tripping over cables), but it’s ergonomic! Comes in black, Super Mario nostalgia vibes, or a bunch of wild Mushroom Kingdom characters. Take your pick.

Then there’s the Slim Case for $19.99. It sounds sleek, in this dark heather gray I can’t even really picture. Meant for taking your Switch 2 out and about without hulking it around. Zippered, lined with plush (not sure why that word cracks me up), and there’s an integrated stand that screams “play with me!” Holds ten game cards, because who travels with fewer, really?

And a Screen Protector duo for $12.99. These guardians of your screen come with all the installation gear—stickers, guides, cloths—like a pit crew for your gaming gear.

So yeah, PowerA’s got us covered. Maybe it’s time to start saving those pennies. Or not. Who knows where this whirlwind of gaming gear will take us next.
