Does this support pro controllers or are they still forcing joycons?

On the Nintendo page for it, it says the motion controlled games require a joycon, but those games are disabled for online play. Maybe there will be an option to disable them for local play too?

Looks like “super” ahead of Mario party will be their tell that the mini games will need joycons. I just hope I don’t have to high five 10,000 times a game like the last SMP

Good question, looks like you'll probably need joycons

Yeah I see they have joycons games but I'm really hopeful they either work with the pro, or get excluded when a pro is in use. Games like the tilt and shake should work with the pro..

I'm cautious because I have 4 pro controllers and 2 surviving joycons, it was pretty annoying when the first one couldn't be played at all. I have no intention of buying more defective joycons.

Yeah, I don't understand giving the Pro Controllers all the same features minus the IR sensor, and then not being able to use them

I feel the same way. Joycons have burned me too many times. I know I can buy stick conversions kits but at a certain point I become bitter and just buy cheap third party pro controllers.
