- Hori has revealed his new Nintendo Switch 2 camera for hand games
- The licensed camera is more compact than the official Nintendo Chamber and can be connected to the USB-C port of the Switch 2
- The camera is expected to be launched on the same day as Switch 2 on June 5, 2025
Hori has presented his new Nintendo Switch 2 camera, specifically designed for portable mode.
After Nintendo Switch 2 Direct earlier this month, it is possible that he has captured the news that Hori is throwing a Piranha plant camera, an alternative to the Nintendo mounted camera, which can be used with the console’s game chat function.
This device is intended to be used in coupled mode on a TV, but now Hori has also announced a camera designed for hand game.
As reported by Nintendo Everything, the official license chamber was seen on Amazon Japan and will be launched on the same day as Switch 2 on June 5, 2025, for 3,981 yen, which is approximately $ 30.
This camera is much smaller than the Piranha plant and the official Nintendo Chamber and seems to offer three different options. An option allows users to separate the camera from their base and plug it into the USB-C port of the Switch 2, so you can sit at the top of the console and capture the player’s face while playing in portable mode.
The basis of the camera also acts as a support that can be resting on a TV support like any other camera, so it seems to work in the coupled mode and the hand computer.
Although the official Nintendo camera offers a resolution of 1080p, it seems that the Hori device only allows up to 480p, as well as its other piranha plant -shaped device.
Since the information is only available in Japan from writing, it is likely that we will receive more details about the camera when a western official announcement is made.
When the Nintendo Switch 2 is launched on June 5, it will cost $ 449.99 / £ 395.99 or $ 499.99 / £ 429.99 for the Mario de Mario Kart bunch. The early orders of the United Kingdom and the early orders of the United States are now live.
