Those who count themselves among the concerned ones can be rest assured that Nintendo Switch controllers would work with Windows PC/Laptop, Macbooks and Android-based devices. The Joy-Cons connect via Bluetooth, making them easily accessible to any Bluetooth-enabled device. You can play games using the Switch controllers even on your smartphone or tablet. According to this YouTuber, only one of the Joy Con controllers connects for a single player mode and both of them connect as unique controllers in case of a multiplayer game. By default, both the controllers do not connect as a single unit to be used in single player games but it’s quite possible that this issue will be addressed by the company in future a future patch for the console or a third party app/software might be able to facilitate this for the people. Nintendo Switch started creating a lot of buzz months before it released in March 2017 but it has been facing a significant amount of criticism regarding issues with the controller. Although the company released an update to its software on the very first day to tackle the issue, a number of users are still facing desyncing of the controller. Other than that, there have been issues regarding other wireless devices hindering the Switch, but the company doesn’t have a befitting solution to this problem except switching off the other device or moving away from it.
