Pairing your Nintendo Switch Joy-Con is super simple and gets your gaming adventure started in no time.
Quick Steps to Pair Your Joy-Con
To pair your Joy-Con, first, make sure your Nintendo Switch is on. Then, slide the Joy-Con from top to bottom onto the sides of your Nintendo Switch console until you hear a click. This means they’re connected!
If you’re looking to use the Joy-Con wirelessly, press the small round button on the flat side of each controller. This puts them in pairing mode. Next, on your Switch’s HOME Menu, go to Controllers > Change Grip/Order. Press the L and R buttons on your Joy-Con when prompted, and boom, you’re paired!
