<p>The just-released Switch versions of <a href="http://ift.tt/VtDos1">World of Goo</a> and <a href="http://ift.tt/1ZjJw4l">Human Resource Machine</a> demonstrate another way the system&#8217;s Joy-Con controllers can be used.</p>
<p dir="ltr">In addition to holding them vertically or horizontally to serve as a traditional controller, the Joy-Con can essentially serve as a Wii remote. As seen in the video below (via <a href="http://ift.tt/2nqtYl5">Reddit</a>), both games allows you to aim at your TV (or the system&#8217;s screen itself) using the Joy-Con. Despite the exaggerated arm movements, smaller gestures seem to work just fine, too. Due to seemingly using the controller&#8217;s gyroscope, a sensor bar isn&#8217;t needed, as on the Wii.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Using a Joy-Con in this way first requires you to lay it down on a flat surface. Pressing the Plus button allows you to reorient its aim on the center of the screen during gameplay. This potentially allows you to orient it in a way that doesn&#8217;t require you to aim at the screen itself, should you want to do that for some reason.</p>
<p>World of Goo and Human Resource Machine were <a href="http://ift.tt/2nrJxci">two of three new Switch releases today alongside Little Inferno</a>. They&#8217;ll be followed tomorrow by <a href="http://ift.tt/1u8HMOx">The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+</a>.</p>
