How to PAIR / SYNC your Joy-Cons & Pro Controllers to your Nintendo Switch

[@BristolMatt]

If you live in the UK, this channel comes to the rescue every damn time! I either try everything and then finally find your vid.... Or luckily like today it pops up instantly on a KZbin search. When I need help you are always there! It's like you know what things are gonna piss people off..... And then you make a video! What a man!

[@Mymatevince]

Ur videos are so informative!

[@Mymatevince]

Thanks.

[@Wobbmin]

Wait so how does the system know that you're trying to use the joycon grip? In a game like arms, it'll still try make you use motion controls on the grip which won't work.

[@Connordore]

Captin Marvelous The Switch doesn’t know, the grip is just that, a grip. It doesn’t have any tech inside as it reflects the lights from the joy-cons. All it does is holds the joy-cons, and the Switch recognizes it as 2 separate joy-cons.

[@mikrot-rex747]

Thanks Vince.. just what i needed. You got great vids by the way.. very very helpful. 😀

[@larho9031]

You don't need to have four players as a maximum. If you take a Joycon off the Switch and press a button, then it will automatically connect if it's paired. That means you can have up to eight, as the "Controllers" menu can only hold eight.

[@AddyCakesBug]

My hubs tried for like an hour to get his controllers to work. I found this video in seconds and voila! Very helpful. Thanks for making my hubs not turn into the Hulk!

but when I am trying to connect my pro controller it’s stuck on syncing then sooner or later it will stop syncing you got any tips?

[@jtsmjkingofpop3872]

This video was helpful. Thank you for this, my man.

[@johntaylor2971]

Very nice and useful video, thx a lot!

[@scarf96]

This is kinda random, but when you put your joycons on your Nintendo Switch console, (without it inside dock) and you hear the Switch sound effect, like the click. You should notice when you put a certain color joycon in the switch, it shows that same color. Example: you have a red joycon remote and hook it up, you hear it make the sound and you see the red color when you put it in. Well.... for me, it still made the sound effect, but instead of the color being red, it was just gray. Idk why this happens, but I would like to know. And when I press controllers on the main screen, it shows the correct colored joy cons that I have attached to the Switch. So I am not sure if my switch is just old or if something happened.

[@OreganoParsley]

It’s a feature.

[@aerickjames5503]

Whoever you are it worked thank you you are the best person ever

[@gibbsterV]

Thanks for this. My old joy cons stopped working so I bought new ones and didn’t know how to connect them

[@ZashFilms91]

My Mate VINCE - Dude, thank you for your videos. Any chance of doing a setup/review for Nintendo Switch AC912 pro controller? I'm having a few problems and wondering if you could shed some light

[@phantomelf]

Thank you so much I looked through so many videos to find out how to pair my pro controller and none of them told me about the sync button (only wire method which wasn't working for me) they also didn't mention that you have to hold it down.

[@dirpyturtle7887]

Are you able to pair two joycons as if they are in the grip but arent, for example if i was to buy an extra set of joycons would i have to buy another grip or could i use them side by side without the grip so i could have 2 people each using 2 joycons? 1 with a controller and one without?

[@sportalero9032]

Thanx. Just set up the system for my kids today and couldn't figure out how to un-pair the red / blue as being one controller.

[@forgiveabdul]

How do I pare the pro controller because I don’t have the pare button

[@cesarortega8084]

Gracias, mis hijos no sabian como conectar los controles, pero muy bien explicado.!!!

[@VM-xv3cz]

THANK YOU!! My sister connected the pro controller to her computer and I had no idea how to switch it back to the switch

[@justhe_vids9895]

Worked like a charm!

[@TheSZMommy]

I thought the lights in the joycons are batt indicator and i wonder why it never fullcharge lol. Thanks for this video

[@kianpackard1090]

This guy sooo helpful thanks mate 👍

[@lecrams1]

Can i leave the joycons on the console and use another pair of joycons on a grip instead of pulling them out from the console? Thanks

[@natural-born_pilot]

Thank you so much. I’m older and not of the computer cyber age and enjoy video games but don’t know very much about the systems. If I have written instructions to follow usually not a problem. My daughter recently bought the Switch and wanted me to help set it up to play on the tv. Ah shit no instruction booklet. I couldn’t figure how to charge, pair and sync the mess until I watched your video. It was clear, concise and easy to follow. Now if I could just figure out how to get it hooked up to the tv, hmm.🤔

[@justinshaw7826]

Hey I have a question. Do you have to setup your Nintendo switch already on the TV in order to sync the controllers?

[@Broyo7729]

No

[@ash6356]

Looking at this video without owning a nintendo switch but thanks mate.

[@alricaneshama]

Cool. Thanks. Just needed to know how to pair my red and blue joy-cons as I got the animal crossing one instead of the red and blue like I wanted. So, I bought them instead. Now, when and if I want I can switch them out. Might even leave the original ones paired as well. No one but me plays it. Well, the hubby said he might.

[@hangyeolchoi8825]

I have a question, can u connect four different normal(Not pro controllers) joycons? By normal I mean like the red and blue ones that u demonstrated.

[@vexzie.-.7299]

Thanks im getting mk8d ik im late i just got a switch now i know how to pair controllers to play with my dad thanks

UR VIDEO WAS SO HELPFUL I RECENTLY PURCHASED A GAMECUBE CONTROLLER AND I TRIED EVERYTHING BUT I WAS SO LOST

[@pokefoxgroup]

This saved my Pokémon Minecraft and so much more games thx SOOO much

[@scorpionofmars3513]

I just bought 2 extra joycons. If I sync them separate like the red and blue like you just did, can I still play with them together on their grip as one controller like the red and blue? Or, will I have to reset the order?

[@richardchristensen1768]

So in order to use/assign a pro styled controller as the primary game controller you have to remove the joycons from the main unit? That's kind of a bummer I think it's cool the way switch components go together and come apart but it would be a lot cooler if it would let you assign which controllers you want to use if you have them (which I do) instead of making you have to keep taking it apart all of the time!

[@beezle13]

You don’t have to do that. Once they’re paired to the switch, you can choose whatever order you want whenever you want. I have my pro controller as my primary one.

[@StarWarsGamer12]

I have my own switch v2 but these are just too fun to watch XD

Thank you! I got a new game and my one joycon wasn’t working properly with my controller piece. I thought it was broken but all I had to do was sync is properly😅
