Model number is seemingly HAC-016

Test reports can be found at the link above. I don't have the time to skim through them but I wanted to share the filing.

...I swear to God I've read HAC was the technical codename for Switch somewhere.

 

[L~A]

HAC is the codename for the Switch, isn't it? So most likely the console itself Wait no, it wouldn't be 016, then.

 

[kami_sama]

Are gamepads considered game devices? If so, this could be the pro controller or the dock controller.

 

[KingBroly]

New 2DS?

That girl who hacked Splatoon and said she has access to the SDK data and shared something with HAC as codename? NWsomething?

 

[User123456]

HAC is the Switch codename (according to some people with access to the dev portal IIRC), so this sounds like it might be for the wireless connectivity of the Joycons or pro controller.

Yup, 016 is interesting... that would indicate something classified as an accessory or part, typically. Weird.

Whatever it is, Nintendo's not interested in having it revealed until E3.

Definitely seems like it's for the JoyCons.

Now that is interesting....


I'm going to say that it is a new joycon for a specific game to be announced at E3

 

[ekim]

Definitely seems like it's for the JoyCons.

But this seems to be the back of the device. Look weird.

 

[Stevey]

Aren't the controllers wireless?
Surely it will be that.

 

[User123456]

But this seems to be the back of the device. Look weird.

The back of the joycon, yes. The upper part looks to me like room for the triggers.

 

[khaaan]

The back of the joycon, yes. The upper part looks to me like room for the triggers.

Joycon pro to go with the headset.

 

[kadotsu]

I hope there will be many different Joycons. I would love a right side with a Gamecube and N64 button layout.

Uhh... The back of a shoulderless right Joy-Con?

 

[BY2K]

HAC

Handheld And Console.

Heh.

[Graphics Horse]

Correct

 

[Anth0ny]

HAC = Handheld and Console

duh

 

[Eusis]

White Switch to be announced!

Wait they don't do FCC filings for colors do they?

 

[Interfectum]

That's a penis.

Looking at the info

Considering the shape of the device on the location PDF. And the frequencies tested.

This has to be exclusively for the joycons unless the switch itself doesn't have Wifi.

13.56000000-13.5600000 is the frequency for RFID chips so Amiibo confirmed
2402.00000000-2480.00000000 This is bluetooth range I believe.

So amiibo confirmed and joycons work over bluetooth

Hah. Nice find. Didn't take notice about this.

Yea the more I look at it it has to be a filing for the joycons exclusively.

 

[foltzie1]

I'm curious where an Amiibo would fit on a Joycon and be flush with the case.

 

[Berg]

Joy cons with 500gb of storage?
Is that a possibility?

 

[Skittzo0413]

Is there even a remote possibility that this could be for an SCD? Maybe launching winter 2017, as this isn't being revealed until E3?
