Five Joycon models that exploit unique features.
Each one of the models is presented with
three games that take advantage of its characteristics

Adaptor

A dock attached to a Joycon that communicates with Nintendo Switch and make compatible any controller of the Nintendo family :
from the historical NES controller, to the ergonomic and comfortable Gamecube's joypad.
This kind of Joycon could make the happiness of oldest Nintendo fans,
who would have the opportunity to reuse old relics and bring them back to life.
With this device, it would also be possible to design new concept for peripheral fallen in disuse

Space Konga

Space Konga is an endless run game, where you pilot a spaceship using the DK Bongos.
The spaceship move on self-generated tracks, where you can find different kind of obstacles
and bonus. Three rails run in parallel. You can move freely from one to another.
Hit the bongos to change binary. Clap your hands to jump and avoid obstacles.
On the rails you can find Yellow and Red Orbs: beat the right kongo to collect the red one,
and beat the left to collect the yellow one.
Careful, if you don't pick up the orb precisely you may inadvertently change track

Beat the left bongo to move
the spaceship to left

Beat the right bongo to move
the spaceship to right

Clap your hands to jump

Beat the bongos at the right time to collect the orbs

4Ray

The energetic parasite come from outer space and only Ray can stop it.
The malevolent being is able to conjugate any kind of biological and inorganical matter.
It has evolved taking control of substances and forming it in its interest and needs.
The parasite takes possession of much material :
threatening titans of crumbling meat, expired minerals, ghost machinery and so on.
Ray is a magical alchemist, and she is able to manipulate the six elements,
able to cut the energetic connection of the parasite

If you bought "Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix" you should still have the Dance Pad,
in this case you can help Ray to save his world.
Position yourself above the Dance Pad and take Joycon in your hand.
The gameplay is hack'n'slash style plus a magical evoking system :

Use the Joycon to control Ray and fight the parasite, step on the Dance Pad to draw the elementary magical power

Fight a Titan ...

... when is dazed ...

... use the alchemy to destroy part of the parasite ...

... then continue to fight

Put your feet on a button to evoke an energy

Hit the parasite serve not only to weaken it. Studying the reaction of the subject,
you can understand what kind of energy you have to evoke to eliminate the ties of the galactic energetic threat

The essence of the parasite has five characteristics :

Color, Brightness, Consistency, Resilience and Impact

Color

You can understand the color of the parasite just by looking at it.
To exterminate parasitic ties you have to use a certain type of energy, depending on the color

Grey – Fire
Brown – Water
Purple – Wood
Black – Air
Orange – Earth
Green – Metal

Brightness

Even brightness can be understood by observing titans, but is not enough to look at them directly,
you have to observe their movements and note the flow of the light on them

Strips – Fire
Vortices – Water
Opacity – Wood
Vitreous – Air
Oily – Earth
Resinous – Metal

Consistency

When you hit the body of a titan it has reactions, depending on them,
you can argue the consistency of that parasite

Smoke – Fire
Bubbles – Water
Offal – Wood
Rays – Air
Sparks – Earth
Liquid – Metal

Resilience

When you hit the purulent flesh of a titans, noise comes out of contact with it,
the noise can make you understand the resilience and what energy you have to use to cut it

Screech – Fire
Gurgling – Water
Syncopated – Wood
Whistle – Air
Buzz – Earth
Crackling – Metal

Impact

The shock you feel while hitting a titan determinate the impact.
Recognize the vibrations of the Rumble HD, to understand the kind of impact

Intermittent – Fire
Cadenced – Water
Syncopated – Wood
Continuous – Air
Alternate – Earth
Muffled – Metal

When you want to cut the appendix of a titan with an arm purple that when is injured emit crackling rays,
you have to charge, in any order, the energy from Wood, Water and Air,
putting your feet on the keys A, D and L

Wonder Past

Game Link Cable was a device able to make Nintendo GameCube and Gameboy Advance communicate.
I guess if is possible to create new challenges for games of that past portable console.
If you own the Joycon Adapter, a Gameboy Advance and the Game Link Cable,
enter one of your old games, if the software recognizes it, it is able to read the data.
When Wonder Past recognizes a game, he offers you a challenge.
Complete it in that old game, and show your results to Wonder Past

Example :

Enter "Pokemon Gold" in the Gameboy Advance, Wonder Past reads the data and offers you a request.
"Put in the active team a level 100 Blastoise who knows the move Psychic, to access the challenge"
Disconnect the Gameboy Advance and play Pokemon Gold.
If you bring to the Pokemon Day Care a Slowbro that knows Psychic and a Blastoise,
you will get the egg of a Squirtle that knows Psychic.
Make it to reach level 100, and when Wonder Past reads your data,
it will know the request is satisfied, giving you access to the challenge emulated in Wonder Past.
"Defeat 4 level 80 Pokémon using your Blastoise"

the right analog Stick of the right Joycon with a calculator keypad.
This support, of course, have the ability to integrate, directly, basic calculations
in the gameplay of a game, giving the chance to imagine new gameplay concepts, but
Calculacon can also see as a Joycon that renounces to one stick to implement 16 new button

Energetic Man

It is an important moment for Edmond Sigali : the cosnider of his ideation will inaugurated the next day,
and the experiments to track down the "Sigali particle" will begin.
Excited and thrilled, he can not sleep, he goes to the laboratory to perform a final test before the big day.
He enter in the melting chamber of the core for manually set the positioning parameters.
Unfortunately, he has an accident, and senseless, swoon on the floor.
Next day the staff is upset, no one can find the professor, but the experiment has to start, and the machine is put into operation.
Shocked present listen impotent the screams of the trapped person, they assist the tragic departure of the man of science.
The establishment is quickly displaced, but the unforeseen events are not over.
Staff of lab with infinite amazement finds out that Professor Edmond Sigali's life has not yet been canceled.
The man, without imposition of lab dresses, stands before the other communes, with shining radiant body of light.
Curiosity, disbelief, speculation and experimentation begin. Eleven months later, the Government of the Exalting States,
declares, in a press conference in front of the whole world, the existence of the first superman in history.
The blameless power of the doctor change the fate of the war, Exalting State become the first super-power in the world

Some years later, with total disappointment, mistrust and fear, Dr. Sigali discover that the states
he is working for, are not heroic survivors of war, but the ones who caused it.
Completely distraught he leaves his place, with the intent of using his powers to declare war to war itself.

"I will destroy all weapons factories in the world...it will not remove the belligerent seed from heart of humanity,
but when people will have nothing but sticks and stone to kill each other, at least the planet will not suffer anymore"

Dr. Edmond Sigali, in an accident earned superhuman powers.
Energy flows into his body, he can perceive it in the same way he feels sounds
and flavors, and he is also able to impose his will on it.
The fact that he has spent his life studying physics, also, give him an aulic point of view of the situation,
understanding himself and understanding secrets factors of existence

The game present itself as an hack and slash adventure.
In a world where you have been branded as living calamity, all governments in the world are hunting down you

There are nine Tokens displayed on the screen (identified, in fact, with number ranging from 1 to 9).
At the beginning of each level, you gain a random number of each Token.
Token represent four different types of energy, which you can combine to gain extraordinary powers.

Use the calculator keypad to stimulate a type of energy, by spending corresponding Tokens
To make Tokens react you have to use the four basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division)
the result determines the energetic expression of power

Results divisible by 2 give you Stream Power, by enormously increasing your destructive power on physical objects.
Results odd, divisible by 3 give you Lightness, that make you extremely light and quick.
Results that are prime number give you Ethereality, reducing your physical density, making your body unable to interact with matters.
Result whose last digit is 0 give you Irradiation, emitting a magnetic field that interacts with everything it comes into contact with you.
All other result give you a temporary Shield.

Using a larger number of operations increase the force of you power.
A very simple example : the energy come from 2x9+2 is more powerful then energy come from 5x4

RapidEye

Averroè had renounced to his humanity to embody ideals of New Shan-gon people.
The oppressive despotism of the governments reduces poor people into proto-slavery.
Revenues from these inhumane maneuvers provided power, resources and money
to the government of New Shan-gon, which invested almost all in warlike research

Metallic armies of automated drone and cyborg, patrol the streets : apparently no one can oppose

RapidEyes is a 2D platform hack 'n' slash, characterized by a strong emphasis on chaining combo.
At the beginning of the game you can concatenate up to 3 combo. Each time a combo reaches the maximum number of Links,
you have the chance to concatenate one more Special move (via button combination).
If the Special move hit a enemy, Player is rewarded with an Chain Link, which represents the ability to make combo with 1 Link more.
There is no limit to the number of Links combo can reach.
If you are injured by an enemy you lose 1 Chain Link. After 5 second in which you do not inflict damage, you lose 1 Chain Link

Thanks to its cyborg engagement, Averroè is able to move at supersonic speed,
because to its sensors, he can keep focus on dozens of subjects at the same time.
Using the calculator keypad, you can launch yourself at supersonic speed against the corresponding enemy.
In this way you can handle large groups of enemies strategically

It might be cleaver fight some enemies before others.
Enemies that shoot from far, and drone - that can call reinforcements - could create problems

Some enemies have powerful shields,
they can not damaged until it is intact.
If you can not inflict damage,
you can not concatenate combo

You could first destroy enemies without shield, then get rid of the other,
but, you should fight with less Combo Link

A good idea could be move continuously from a enemies to others,increasing
Chain Link while weakening the shields

Some enemy have special skills.
When you see a red aura around a character, immediately strike it, to prevent the danger

When you face certain enemies, you can focus your attacks on strategics points

Use Averroè's superhuman abilities to repel the army
of the oppressors and lead your people to freedom

His dream is to create a sentient virus that has cognitive abilities and that is able to manipulate filaments of human DNA.
By teaching human beings and sentient viruses to communicate, it could be possible create a human's body guard,
a being that have total control over human organism, which can put a person in communion whit his own body,
creating a cure against all illnesses : a real panacea.
The project is almost finished, but some major test are needed to complete the creation.
Abdul-Gafhoor has no other choice, he must inject the virus into himself and study the results.
First tests give very positive results. The virus responds to impulses, begins to act on Abdul's body,
immediately curing his glaucoma, and decreasing his cholesterol rate.
After two days of testing, Abdul feels great. After four days of testing problems begin to appear.
The longer time flows the more scientist feels weak, so much he has trouble doing simplest gestures.
New tests confirm scary hypothesis, the virus has begun to feed on dopamine.
More Abdul becomes weak, more the virus feel the need to absorb dopamine.
The most serious scientist's doubts come true : the virus rebelled against the master.
The virus begins to give strange orders to its host, and hit the nerves of Abudl when he does not obey,
making him suffer enormous pains : grab objects only with the left hand, walk backward to go to the lab,
keep your eyes closed while using the calculator.
Abdul argues that - as dopamine is the driving force of attention - transforming daily actions into small challenges,
favor the delivery of dopamine, that virus want.
Abdul-Gafhoor is certainly not willing to be transformed into slave by a virus.
He inject a nanomachine into his vein, and controlling remotely it, he start the hunt within
