Retrocompatibility of Wii and WiiU controllers for Nintendo Switch

Le problème

As casual or passionate gamers, and in order to give access to the Nintendo Switch for the majority of us, we are asking for the implementation of a backward compatibility of all or a part of the controllers of previous generations of Nintendo hardware.

 Indeed, since the advertised prices are relatively high, in particular concerning the additional controllers: "Joy Con" and "Pro", many consumers who are potentially interested in the hardware have already expressed the obstacle that it could represent to their investment.

 The Nintendo Switch is presented, like its predecessors, as a game console based on warmth, it would be legitimate to offer its users a cheaper access to the local multiplayer game. This could be done, for example, by allowing the use of Wiimotes which have been sold in great numbers in terms of the past success of the Wii or the Controller Pro of the WiiU which was widely diffused like alternative to an unwieldy GamePad.

 Finally, allowing this backward compatibility, would be seen by Nintendo customers as a reward for their loyalty to a brand they have been following and enjoying for years, making it easier for them to access new hardware without losing all Benefits of previous investments.
