Here’s What’s Inside The Nintendo Ring-Con #Nintendo #TearDown
Nintendo are no strangers to complicated peripherals for their consoles. Spawn Wave on YouTube goes through tearing down the RingCon, a pilates ring for the Nintendo Switch. Not surprisingly there are some flex sensers baked into the device, at around the 8 minute mark there is a fun Adafruit easter egg.
The Ringcon that comes with Ring Fit Adventure is an interesting take on what has been a standard tool in the exercise world for a while now. There have been a lot of people who were curious as to how the Ringcon itself worked and if there was anything to it. Today we’ll take it apart and see how it works and how it is actually connected to an old Nintendo peripheral from the 80s.
