abxylute has announced the launch of a Kickstarter campaign for the all-new N6 and N9C deck-style controllers for Nintendo Switch 2. The abxylute N6 and N9C bring several features in a compact form factor for Switch 2 with ergonomic designs, motion controls, turbo functionality, vibration, and customization features. The N6 is optimized for long play sessions, while the N9C offers mechanical inputs with an iconic layout inspired by the iconic Nintendo GameCube controller.
Both models are designed for plug-in play for Nintendo Switch 2 with no pairing steps or charging routes—simply attach the controller and start playing. The controllers include built-in gyro motion control, vibration feedback, drift-free joysticks, turbo functionality, custom button mapping/macros, and a dedicated C button for GameChat and GameShare functions.
