Erm, you can still use headphones on the Switch if you want... Not sure what the problem is here.

Were obviously talking about thé home console mode here

No. Ive only ever used headphones in the 360 controller to chat online.

You dont have Xbox One/PS4 ? its à game changer for immersion. 

I have both, but I just dont use headphones. Its a cool feature though.

Hey, at least it has a D-pad. That puts it it a spot over the Joycons.

That said yes I love headphones in the controller. It is fantastic. Specially since you can use any headphones. Even Xbox updated their controller to allow any headphone.

Though i dont think thé dpad will bé so useful on pro controller since games will bé built before all for thé joycons so theyll limit thé use of thé d pad i think

Im trying to figure out how you can plug à headsets un thé controller if There is no port, unless you mean buying à bluetooth headsets only for this whîle you already have much better quality headsets ? I already tried once and never again ill buy à bluetooth headsets

very disappointing!

I wonder if the Switch will support devices like bluetooth headphones. I don't see this as a big issue with the Nintendo controllers but do see the layout and the lack of analogue triggers an issue which makes them inferior to ds4 and xbox controllers.

Well were used to no analog triggers with Nintendo since thé GameCube unfortunately but having to buy à bluetooth headsets is à much bigger issue for me, this is so unnecessary and could have Been avoided easily

This is a pretty huge deal for me. I play games exclusively with headphones. Such a stupid oversight. Again.
