    I'm working on a diy project (not going to say what it is yet in case I go all ADD and it never happens), and need the dimensions of the Joy-Con. I don't expect anyone to bust out the calipers (although if you really want to I would really appreciate it*), but if a Switch owner could take a photo of the front and sides next to a mm ruler it would be really helpful. Thanks.

    *I'm sure future modders would too. I can't tell you how many times I've been to that one Boards.ie thread with the SNES controller measurements.

    Can't provide pics at the moment, but I get:

    • width (across the controller with the buttons facing you): 34.9mm
    • length: 101.6mm
    • depth at thickest point: 19mm

    Good luck with your project.

    Thanks very much frytup! If you get a chance can you tell me if the buttons seem to be the same size as on a WiiU gamepad (9mm)?
