An "HD Rumble" feature for high definition haptic feedback is included in the Joy-Con, which can convey realistic effects. For example, a demo for the January 2017 presentation showed that shaking the Joy-Con can give the illusion of ice cubes being shaken within a glass cup.<ref name="Switch 1.12.2017"/> The HD Rumble also helps move certain {{wp|Nintendo Labo}} Toy-Con cardboard builds, such as a race car acting much like a toy remote controlled car when connected to the Joy-Con. The minigame-based game ''{{wp|1-2-Switch}}'', which was released as a launch title, and the wrestling game ''[[ArmsWiki:ARMS (game)|ARMS]]'', released on June 16, 2017, are two games that heavily utilize the Joy-Con HD Rumble and motion control features.<ref name="Switch 1.12.2017"/>
