Ойындар

How do you fix the handheld problem without amking your switch too big and bulky? How do you change the way it feels without changing the way it looks? I think its Swapping out the Joy cons.

    I got a set of the red split pad compact and really happy with them. Feels so much better in the hand. Yes the lack of rumble and gyro, but they just work better for me

    I bought these last week and very happy with my purchase. I find gaming on the switch much more enjoyable now especially games that use the right stick eg Doom and Bioshock. I have another pad for docked play and don't care about gyro, amibo or rumble. Only downside for me is having to buy a new case for when I take my switch on holiday

    I found them at Walmart yesterday, but $50 was too much for me, they had 1 dark blue for $24 and that was a great deal. They make a big difference while playing handheld mode.

    I have had two sets of SPPs and the right Ztrisger has bust on both. This is due to playing a lot of driving games I think. I wonder if these will be any different. Are they still membraned?

    If someone released joy cons in this size, but with wireless and proper hd rumble, I'd buy 10 of them. Shame all the wireless options are really cheaply made. Had the binboks, and they snapped at the rail with relatively little force. Also no joycons have hd rumble other than official ones, and I'd rather just have no rumble that crappy rumble

    I think Nintendo really needs to design bulkier joycons for the next gen Switch (whenever that comes). Because seriously the joy cons are just too tiny. Both in terms of the grip and buttons and sticks.
