These are super comfortable and totally worth it. Normal joycons are tiny. Split pad pros are giant. These fit perfect.

But for the price I think that they don't offer the value that other solutions do. I think they are vastly overpriced

As a handheld player I personally LOVE the compact. The pro is absolutely massive so these fit right in the middle.

I’m 90% sure the reason licensed JoyCon alternatives are all “featureless” (no rumble, no wireless etc) is solely because of Nintendo. It’s clear they can actually make more feature packed joy con alternatives like the BinBok or the Nyxis, but those will never get licensed, and the licensed ones will never get those features. Simply because Nintendo would never want to sell something that, would be a clearly better alternative than the joycons, that we all know are packed with problems.

I'd easily trade amiibo, rumble and gyroscope for better ergonomics, more accurate thumbsticks and two extra buttons on the rear. Thats what this is for and it does it successfully. A smaller version of the Split Pad Pro. The joycons buttons are for kid and my hands get fatigued quickly.

I have these, I like them better than the standard Joycons but I agree the price is high. I got mine on sale from Walmart for $20.

Its funny you see all these joycon alternatives that showed up during switches life time, yet nintendo hasn't really don't anything to make their improved joycons.

So Binbok claims that Nyxi is using similar/the same vendors but claim they are different and that Nyxi is encroaching on their trademarks/designs.

Nintendo need to either come out with a new switch with more power and a pro like Joycon or just redesign the joycons themselves or even license the technology in the joycon to a third party company cuz as it stands joycons are the most uncomfortable control there is but they just have the best functionality out of and third party Nintendo accessory available

@RoXolid

Жыл бұрын

I'd bet we'll see a Switch successor within 18-24 months

The sticks on these share the trait of many cheap third party controllers: they like to gravitate towards the four points of the cross axis. Not usually a problem but you will notice it on top down shooters. Feels like a deadzone you have to overcome to get past those four points. You can see it in stick calibration mode when you rotate the stick.

I swear every comment and review i see about these seems like a paid actor or sponsor. Thank you for giving an honest and genuine review. I bought the gengar edition and was pissed when I found out i paid $60 for a worse wired remote lol

The price is almost one Joycon .... you are overacting in that regard. This are made in response to feel more comfortable for handheld marathons, that's it. Why people have expectations that if they pay ~60$ it also should come with jet, house service and ironman transformation ridiculous

@RoXolid

Not at all. I am comparing this, not only to original OEM joy cons but to what other manufacturers have out on the market. Other manufacturers provide more features for a lower cost. That is where I take issue with both the original split pad and the split pad compact. $50 for something you can only use while attached to the system? That doesn't have hall effect sensors? There are better values to be found out there.

Are they overpriced for what they are? Sure. But we all sort of knew the drawbacks when getting these. Especially since it’s like a revision of the original SPP. For handheld players, it does it’s job quite well. I don’t used Amiibo function and don’t necessarily need rumble. But the fit is what people get them for. The only thing I don’t like is the feel of instability when gripping it. Just because the nature of the design. I would like to see some sort of bar that attach to both controllers. Sort of like the Neogrip.
