    If you have a Switch Pro Controller, you can find a nice surprise hidden what appears to be inside the socket of the right analog stick. There you can read the message "THX2 ALLGAMEFANS!" This was discovered by twitter user geo_stream.

    Neat.

    Neat indeed.
    I wonder if this is in all Pro Controllers or just a select few.

    Much like the chibi Masterchief inside the Xbone S, and Kronos on the CPU of the Kronos board of the 360.
    I love things like that.

    EDIT. "thx2allgamefans!" message is printed on the Switch controller pcb.

    The wii U pro controller also has a secret.

    It connects to Switch but is non responsive.

    i read the 'THX2' as a new version of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/THX
    ...and then I finally got it.

    Haha.
    So there is no "RIP Sony Vita" discovered anywhere yet?
    :)
