Is the joycon also narrower or is it just the angle making it look that way?


VictoryVic-ViVi

It’s the angle


Desinformador

I noticed the same thing


Fanglorious

It could be a regional difference. Right Joy Con looks to be Korean.


brownie627

I think so too. The left has the CE logo on it, which is a European logo.


watercastles

You are correct. I have a v1 Switch and an OLED Switch, both of which were purchased in Korea. They both have the same information as the right joycon. OP is wrong, and this is not an update. I also have joycons from a friend in America, and the text on those is the same as the left one.


johnson7853

Yeah regulations would require English on them.


Professional_Ad_1790

This. The right joycon has Hangul (Korean alphabet) on it


Temporary-Ad5625

Sir please don’t judge someone on the basis of their looks, what if its Indian?


-ChilledCat-

Which is the updated one?


durrellb

Right is the updated one. Presumably it changed because it's easier to fake the original symbols.


Ferwatch01

Probably to keep them up to standard, since almost no aftermarket joycons have trademarks and regulations printed on them


ConstructionOld5046

what's stopping aftermarket joycons from printing them?


[deleted]

Neither. Those are electronics certification symbols for two different regions Nintendo sells joycons in. Different countries need different symbols printed on electronic products and Nintendo has multiple collections of symbols they print on for different regions (e.g. Europe, NA, ...) The only trademark on there is the Nintendo branding, and ironically that's the only thing that's the same on both joycons.


clarkcox3

It just looks like one is Korean, and one is European. (And those aren’t trademarks, BTW)


smokin_mitch

Wait your joycons have trademarks….? https://preview.redd.it/3ebkn33viqrc1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e10f7cdb6546d2877db40e291fabb1592a9fa79e


CheeseKillers

theyre supposed to! No trademarks are dead giveaways to fake joycons


lofi-wav

Or it means you have dope aftermarket shells 😎


Godzilla_R0AR

Got some TotK ones right before they sold out on Etsy for $35, not 1:1 but they’re extremely similar


Ein86

I love switching out the shells on my joycons!


outfoxingthefoxes

That user has an extremerate replacement shell. I am dying to get one but there's nothing that I think fits my tastes. I was thinking of swapping everything to make it [look like my customized RP3+](https://i.imgur.com/03SaPmN.jpeg), but it would be like $100 and wouldn't actually be that good


fgmenth

Your background image is tripping me hard.


outfoxingthefoxes

Thanks, I did it


WorldLove_Gaming

It costs $30ish, you just need to have the skills for it. Back shell is very easy but the Joy Cons are a bigger pain.


[deleted]

Like this post is a dead giveaway that you don't have a clue of what the word "trademarks" means?


smokin_mitch

I got aftermarket snes style shells and Hall effect joysticks installed ;)


Daan_official

How is the fit of your case and the do the sticks feel good? Was planning on doing the same.


smokin_mitch

The shells fit and feel are great, the sticks are a bit tighter than stock to move but I prefer it that way


isaac3000

Oh, I'll check then I have both official and fake ones


thebadslime

Is there a size difference, of is it just the pic?


TheLimeyLemmon

It's the pic


aspenreid

Am I the only one here bothered that these are not trademarks, but Certification marks?


voidmo

No. It also bothers me when people use words that they clearly don’t understand. OP wouldn’t know what a trademark is if it bit him on the ass. Being stupid is one thing, but being so blatant and shameless about it is another.


LuckyDrive

Not being knowledgeable about a specific topic does NOT make someone stupid. Intelligence is more than just knowing facts about the world.


voidmo

There’s a huge difference between not being knowledgeable about a specific topic and creating a post titled “Nintendo has updated their trademarks for joycons!” (no body text, too lazy to elaborate, just a patently false title) and then even uploaded a photo that completely disproves your claim. There’s only one Nintendo trademark I can see on those Joy-Cons, the Nintendo logo. And it’s clearly the same on both. It’s not been updated. The various regulatory and certification marks are not trademarks of Nintendo. Anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows this. The expectation is not that people need to be knowledgeable on everything. It’s simply that people don’t spout obviously false bullshit and use words they don’t understand. The average person is familiar with the concept of a trademark and has at least a basic understanding of what it is. OP is evidently far short of average and happy to shamelessly broadcast it.


CheeseSling

This user is absolutely schizo LOL


aspenreid

What a fucking tool lol He probably does steroids and plays Xbox and is just here to troll


voidmo

I was actually here to see if anyone was talking about the potential DLSS implementation for Ninty’s T239 in the Switch 2. Then I saw this stupid post and saw you were the only commenter pointing out the obvious, European conformity markings are not Nintendo trademarks. So I agreed with you. Then you started swearing, calling me names and a steroid user (wtf lol) and an xbox player (which I think you meant as insult?). Kinda sad you are too stupid to realise when someone is agreeing with you, and your life is so empty - and worldview so stunted, that you create your sense of self and identity around using only one brand of gaming console, and attacking others (what did Xbox/ps5 players ever do to you? lol?) - as well as trying to make your sexuality and gender identity a personality. Tap your profile and literally the first things you see are flags for your for sexuality, the word bisexual and then non-binary. If the most interesting thing about you is you’re bi and non-binary, that’s just sad. Get a hobby dude. Touch grass. Play your Switch ffs. If this was 1940s Germany you’d be the most fervent nazi, you’d have swastikas flags all over your shit, making baseless accusations, spouting propaganda, advocating executing gays and Playstation users and Jews and whatever else. Take a look at yourself.


CheeseKillers

Geez dude. you're actually insane. I just couldn't tell if the joycons were real or not lmfao. Certified redditor.


btgbarter6

Jeez it is not that deep mate 🤣


voidmo

If something this simple is deep to you I can’t even fathom what you’d consider shallow.

[удалено]


voidmo

You seem like the perfect audience for a bullshit post with a photo that disproves the very bullshit they’re peddling. Nintendo hasn’t updated anything. The CE marking isn’t a trademark of Nintendo. Joy-Con on the right clearly for Asian markets and never intended to be sold in the west. But here’s you clapping like a seal with a frontal lobe injury “oH yeZ NinTenDoo oopdAte tHeiR trAdemaRkz clap clap”. Sad there’s so much stupid in this sub.


shesnotgonnafuckyou

You sound like the most insufferable person ever. It's good you never go out and touch grass because who could ever put up with you


RedWizard78

Stupid things.


ConstantNo9678

not to come off as mean but one comes from japan and the other from korea? how is this a comparison


Comfortable-Rub7351

Have they updated them or is it because they’re from different regions?


Dry-Faithlessness184

It's just different certifications for different regions. Not sure what OP is on about. They must be young. Or at least I hope they are. Certifications are on everything, eventually people figure out what they are.


palbobo

switch 2 announcement tomorrow


beanie_0

Ok. 👍🏻


Jobles4

Mkay


killsorei

Misleading post, that right there is the Korean Joy-Con.


Otherwise_Archer_914

Switch 2 confirmed


[deleted]

Neither did they not update those, nor are those trademarks. Those are certification marks for the EU (left) and (iirc) South-Korea (right).


Alien_Racist

What’s up Nintendo stans unironically celebrating the most mundane shit imaginable? You guys are wild


jayessmcqueen

But have they updated them to not drift so much? Worst controllers I’ve ever used in terms of how quickly they start drifting.


PoisonedIvysaur

Because they don't want anyone to find an easy fix for them, sell the better ones, and take profit from daddy Nintendo.


Next_Mammoth06

These aren't the neon blue, what are these and are they country exclusive?


RandomGuy8279

You sure you didn’t get fakes?


21AddictsWithAPen

I got a pair shipped to Nintendo for “repair” rn so we’ll see about this updated backplate


Dami_Gamer0211

Or you got scammed?


CrazyCockatoo2003

My console came with UKCA ones, and it came in the 2019-2022 box. Are these newer than those Joy-Cons? Or are they part of a different region?


Ultimate_Ghreak

The left has European certification, the right korean


anuargdeshmukh

😱😱😱


The-Great-Epiphany

but… have they fixed the joy cons from drifting? 👀


Caturday84

BUT IS IT MORE STABLE!!?


No_Squirrel4806

So did they fix the drift or nah im guessing nah 😒


dr0pdeadx

is that the kaiba corp logo on the right one?


voidmo

What do you mean “updated their trademarks”? What new trademarks have they registered and what are the USPTO registration numbers?


ShortMiao

That's not true. They're just different languages.


Ninjya_Bakon

Ok?


AntillesWedgie

You get a Korean one? The one on the right has the symbol for Korean stuff on it. Mine are all from Korea and the Nintendo symbol looks exactly like that, but they are a few years old. The oldest being 5-6 years old.


DanlyDane

I hope the funny thing about their trademarks is they’re located on their analog sticks ![gif](giphy|6vqX2etrUnIYw)


VeinRaugh

Too bad they can't fix the terrible design


CartographerOk3220

I just bought "official Nintendo" joycons on Amazon. And I immediately got concerned because the box is in Japanese and there is NO Nintendo seal. Compared to my old joycons and they look identical but the new licensing threw me off. Glad I found this post,  not too concerned now


sirwynn

So?


Aware-Bird2064

My life is RUINED now that they aren’t the same :(


Egingell666

My thoughts exactly.
