So it seems this may just refer to “official support” and the piece of news is at least misinformation-adjacent, but it does make me wonder if there is any forwards compatibility with the Pro Controller. There are plenty of solid alternatives for Switch 1 and that wasn’t particularly picky about taking in third party devices.
Not sure if anybody has brought it up in the news deluge.
That’s nice. Gamecube replicas are a bit of a niche case, but there are plenty of expensive fight sticks that would be great to use if compatible. I guess we’ll know for sure once it’s out.

Yes it has Bluetooth support and, naturally, USB C.
It’ll continue to take anything that supports those, and that’ll include the switch 1 pro controller, since it supports those for other devices.
Even regular ass USB keyboards work with Switch. Usually not for control input but typing search terms in the e-Shop, for example.
