Amazon's Horrible World of Joy-Con Knockoffs

Ойындар

What is with all of these cheap Nintendo Switch controllers for sale online that all look the same? I bought every 3rd party Joy-Con I could find on Amazon to find out if it's worth buying these types of controllers over the licensed Nintendo Switch options.

    I need some, specifically cheaper ones because I no longer own any joycons. They need no IR, no HD rumble and no NFC. All I need is motion control because I want to get ringfit. I also want to use them with Starlink but they will just sit idle as I can use the pro controller after starting the game and using my ships.

(from personal experience, my sister drew all over my dolls as a kid but none of hers, my little brother threw my sister’s switch lite but won’t let you LOOK at his ipad, etc.) a lot of kids have phones too, i see little kids who have newer phones than i do because their parents got a new phone and passed their old one down. (usually they don’t have cell service or anything and it’s just to play games on lmao)

    @@Valoftine A smartphone that can play Just Dance can go for as little as $20-$30. You can get an Amazon Fire 9 tablet for $50, or $30-$40 if they're on sale. And if the kid isn't going to respect your stuff? Get her a Switch lite, a cover case with a kickstand(they're cheap usually under $20), and her own set of joy cons. Tell her if she breaks them, you're not just gonna buy her new ones. That she has to save her allowance, or do odd jobs/extra chores to get the money to get new ones herself. I guarantee she'll treat them better, if not on the first set, definitely after having to work to get a new set on her own.

    1. If your joucons are broken you can send them to nintendo to get them fixed for free ( you just need to print the shipping labels and find a place that ships ups packages) 2. If you really don't want to get free repairs, just use Amazon. Joucons go on sale often and they are pretty much always in stock

    Well, it's all preference at the end of the day. They're definitely quality but as many people have pointed out, drift is a common flaw. Is that enough to sour you on the entire rest of the product? It's up to you but I don't think so. Granted, my joycons didn't start drifting until over a year and a half (probably somewhere like 150 hours of use) which is about the time it takes for Xbox360 controllers to start having input problems in my experience so I'm less critical than the 2 month people here.

Also by far the best D-pad I have ever used! but, I’ve only used PlayStation d-pads, ds, wii, and 3ds d-pads, so if you think the pro controller dpad is bad, plz tell me what dpads ur using cuz I would love to try them! xD

    @@beefbossfromwiisports I play with the pro controller as my main controller. Unless I'm playing a 2d platformer or games that require precise inputs. The dpad on the pro controller is flawed. If you press right-left-right-left and so on, there will be an input that registers UP instead of left/right. Many people, if not all, have this proplem. I suspect that most people don't realize it's the controller that is making them play bad. Edit. Tetris 99 is IMPOSSIBLE with the pro controller since that random up input will slam your brick instead of moving it. Happens at least once every game.

    Tip: If you’re playing Captain Toad Treasure Tracker on the Switch, it’s ideal to use a Joy Con, play on handheld/tabletop mode, or Switch Lite. In dock mode, the game has a pointer which moves the touchstones when you use the right Joy Con similar to a Wii Remote. A pro controller is compatible but the pointer is permanently centred to the screen and therefore, it’s harder to aim at the touchstones to move them. Edit: That above statement about the pro controller happens if you have the cheap, wired pro controllers. If you have a much expensive wireless one, the pointer moves around but feels uncomfortable trying to aim at the touchstones while holding the controller with both hands.

    Much as I loath the Nintendo tax, I figured out many, many, many years ago that 9 times out of 10, they charge so much simply because all of the competitors are such crap that you really are just better off forking out their high prices than tossing your money away completely on knockoffs that almost never seem to work. There have been a few things over the years that you could skimp on but, most of the time, yeah, you're stuck with either Nintendo's high prices or complete garbage. I swear sometimes that it's almost like they have secret agents in the factory lines of knock off companies sabotaging them somehow or getting their engineers and designers wildly drunk before work or something. lol. But, whatever the reason, yeah, you're usually better off just paying the tax.

    @@64bitmodels66 Of course. But my main point was that this issue was one that took time to surface and identify as specific to the design, and designing and manufacturing a compatible joystic that fixes this issue while retaining the size and feel probably isn't going to be something that can be fixed easily. While it IS Nintendo's responsibility to fix this (and I would like to see them lower the price of them since you're essentially buying a product that is guaranteed to fail sooner or later), it's not necessarily fair to them to just say that they designed a shitty product and aren't willing to do anything about it. More than likely it's a case of them straight up not yet having any solution that can work. And honestly, other than this flaw, imo the joycons are pretty good, fairly well built. So I don't really think it's for a lack of trying, but rather there just straight up not being a better solution currently, an issue that is shared by basically every first or third party controller/console maker. And hey, look on the bright side, at least this stick isn't soldered onto the board lmao
