Generally, when playing in this configuration, the Joy-Con grip is used, which allows the controllers to function almost exactly like a traditional controller, although SL and SR are never used in horizontal mode. | ||
They can also be used sideways, with one Joy-Con per person. This allows for more players to play (which is required for 8 player matches as a Joy-Con pair counts as two controllers while a Nintendo Switch supports up to 8 connected at once) but limits the number of buttons available to the player, which generally disfavors this kind of play.
