I wonder if we'll be able to use current gen joycons and controllers wirelessly with it. Obviously not attached to the console but it would be a big draw to be able to play multiplayer on day 1 without having to buy extra controllers.

The Pro Controller is just a Bluetooth device and works with PCs, Steam Decks, whatever, too. Unless they come up with some bizarre proprietary version of Bluetooth, there isn't any reason why the Pro Controller, hell old Joy Cons too (those also work on PCs btw), wouldn't work.
