    Thanks! I have last year's version of these nyxi joycons and I love them. Not to mention they have really good customer service. One of my shoulder buttons ended up breaking. I asked them to send me a new shoulder button so could fix it and nyxi sent me a whole new one no problem. Well worth it to buy these for sure!

    I like that the buttons are like engraved instead of painted on, so there's no wear over time.

    If the centre slot piece isn't manufactured very well you could probably take a joycon grip and take off the grip part which would make basically the same thing but with official joycon rails which could help prevent that wear and tear on the right nyxi joycon like you mentioned

    I wonder if you did that with a charging grip if the controllers could get charged through it instead of needing to be docked on the console or independently charged. well, I ordered a set of these controllers last week, guess I'll experiment when they get to me lol

    I'm extremely confused here. There doesn't seem to be any information on split play specifically for motion control. Like demonstration of playing Splatoon for split play motion control as well as exercise games that use motion control. How good this functions for motion control in split play with controllers in separate hands.

    Seems like a nice JoyCon replacement, although with the grip, I don't understand why they couldn't just make it a rechargeable grip. Both controllers need to be charged separately, so why not make the grip that makes them work as one controller be rechargeable? Yeah, you can charge them with the Switch Dock when they're connected to the system, but still.

    I would say the worst thing about these joycons is the dpad. It's worse than any other dpad I've tried (Nintendo and Sony), even the stock joycon buttons. It in fact does use a rubber membrane and the problem is NOT the clicky switches. I suspect it is the design and height of the dpad plastic by Nyxi that makes it almost impossible to do diagonals. After some trial and error, I swapped in a different dpad (from an aftermarket SNES controller), along with some rubber spacers placed underneath the Up and Right directions and some double sided adhesive on the circuit board underneath the dpad center pivot. so I could rock the dpad around in all 8 directions comfortably. There is no disassembly guide, but you don't have to disconnect any ribbon cables or the battery to do this mod.
