Hi #lazyweb, are there #joycons that replicate the #NeoGeo clicky thumb stick?

New Episode up!

We talk about the Lenovo Legion Go, MS Axing the 360 and why Steam keeps winning!

The Switch might be the hardest console to introduce new players to in a group setting. Joy-cons are confusing, and so many games keep changing the orientation they should be held.

Tried playing a party game with some 70-year-olds last night, and half the time was spent helping the understand the controls.

These very same people understood how to use a Wii Remote to play Wii Sports instantly.

Oui, j'ai passé un moment ce matin à regarder les coques de #joycons, comme le mien à une grosse fissure d'origine inconnue. Et c'est la seule conclusion que j'ai a cette longue prospection.
ça, et aussi: Pirouette cacahuète (pardon je tente d'arrêter les grossièretés) qu'est ce que c'est cher les joycons!!💰 💥 :blobPikaGlare:

Visiting my brother who's been swapping out the joysticks in his #joycons recently. The new ones are hall-effect based so they won't drift.

He let me give it a try. It was great craic (although I found reconnecting ribbon cables quite frustrating...) and I'm very tempted to upgrade the joycons we have at home.

The "Kaba" prototype is a success. I can now plug joy cons directly into a gamecube port and it works lol

Now I just need an enclosure that screws onto the joy con grip and we good. Wired Joy Con play.

25 days now since I sent off our #switch #JoyCons for repair by #nintendo. Was meant to be 10 day turnaround, updated to 20 due to high volumes, but looking at the tracking they've not even started on them yet 🙁

Wat.

#Joycons into a #SteamDeck

I'm guessing a loooooot of people sent their knackered #Switch #joycons back to #Nintendo for repair this month in preparation for #TotK

Turnaround was meant to be 10 days, but they've updated the website to say 20. They've had mine for two weeks now and still not opened the package according to the tracking :)

Has anyone ever purchased the third party #JoyCons off Amazon? If so, what was your experience? I don’t use Amiibo/IR so that loss is not a big deal to me.

#Nintendo #Switch 🕹️ 🎮

me, normally: I need to leave

me, medicated: is seems possible that #joycons will turn out to be devices used by an entire generation of #homebrew gear that leverages the device as sensors and controlling elements, with an integrated #yubikey. so when you build a #homeforge, slot your personal #joy-ID into the rail and then it’ll check if you’re authorized to use it by the usual #FOC security standard (owner key, corporation key, and FBI secret key). now, then. in my next six thousand spoken sentences

A reminder that #nintendo will now replace/repair drifting #switch #joycons in the EU and UK regardless of age or warranty status.

I’ve just sent ours off that were bought in 2017! Getting them sorted before #tearsOfTheKingdom drops

Trotz Fingergrobschlächtigkeit habe ich es geschafft, die über die Jahre laff gewordenen Akkus in den Joy-Cons auszutauschen. Empfinde tiefe Dankbarkeit.

Nintendo will now fix Joy-Con drift issues for free in the UK, even if the controller's warranty has expired.

3 out of 4 of my Joy-Cons are experiencing drift, so I figured it was time to replace the joysticks. I sprung for these ones that use hall sensors as I've read good things about their longevity vs a potentiometer-based stick.

Installation was a breeze and they've been great so far! Maybe a bit touchier than OEM, but that could just be me getting used to the new sensor type.

Here's hoping they last!

Does anyone have any experiences with the #Hori #SplitPad Compact?
I own the Hori #SplitPadPro controllers that attach to my #NintendoSwitch but I'm thinking about trying the Compacts.

Some reviews say one is better, other reviews say the other one is better...

I do love playing in handheld mode and I never dock the #Switch but let's be honest:
The #Joycons are NOT comfy. And they are very prone to drift. No one likes hand cramps either...

#consoles #videogames #nintendo

Booo. I’m on my fourth set of Nintendo Switch joycons because they’ve all drifted, including the current set.

I’m straight up using a homebrew program called Mission Control that lets me use my PlayStation 4 & 5 controllers with the Switch because I straight up refuse to give more money to Nintendo for their clearly faulty controller design.

Hoffe aber, dass mein #NyxiWizardWireless bald kommt. Die #NintendoSwitch als Handheld zu nutzen geht gar nicht. Die #JoyCons sind einfach nicht für europäische Männerhände gemacht. Sie sind viel zu klein. Da schmerzen die Hände nach wenigen Minuten.

I've got the bigger version of these, but I am very intrigued by these slimmer ones.
