- Hori revealed its new Nintendo Switch 2 camera for portable games
- The license camera is more compact than the official Nintendo camera and can be connected to the USB-C port of switch 2
- The camera should be released the same day as Switch 2 on June 5, 2025
Hori has unveiled its new Nintendo Switch 2 camera, designed specifically for portable mode.
After the Nintendo Switch 2 direct earlier this month, you may have done the news that Hori publishes a Piranha plant camera, an alternative to the mounted camera of Nintendo, which can be used with the game chat function of the console.
This device is intended to be used in moored mode on a television, but now Hori has also announced a camera designed for portable game.
As reported by Nintendo Everything, the official license camera was spotted on Amazon Japan and will be launched on the same day as Switch 2 on June 5, 2025, for 3,981 yen, which is around $ 30.
This camera is much smaller than the Piranha factory and the official Nintendo camera and seems to offer three different options. An option allows users to detach the camera from its base and connect it to the USB-C port of switch 2, so that it can sit at the top of the console and capture the player’s face while playing in portable mode.
The base of the camera also acts as a support that can be rested on a television furniture like any other camera, so it seems to work in moored mode as well as the pocket computer.
Although Nintendo’s official camera offers a 1080p resolution, it seems that the Hori device only authorizes up to 480p, just like its other Piranha plant -shaped device.
Since the information is available only in Japan at the editorial staff of Japan, we will probably receive more details on the camera during the official western announcement.
When the Nintendo Switch 2 will be launched on June 5, it will cost $ 449.99 / £ 395.99 or $ 499.99 / £ 429.99 for the Mario Kart World pack. British pre -orders and American pre -orders are now live.
