They're literally Bluetooth HID joysticks. They pair to a computer trivially.

Not quite. Nintendo uses their usual undocumented HID extension thing like the Wiimote. It just happens they *also* support standard HID.

Oh huh, wonder why they didn't just use the standard HID mode, if they were gonna support both

I guess it's nice of them to do a standard HID mode if they aren't using it themselves

weird, though: the joy-con HID mode seems to act like the joystick's a D-pad (outputs 9-value "direction", instead of real axes)

I don't think they tested HID mode much. Their real mode outputs full axes, acceleration, etc and has a config address space a la Wiimote

Heh, I'd been assuming they had multiple real HID modes, and some command to switch between them
