I can’t find these joycons anywhere!!
Wow I've never seen these ones before. But these are what Nintendo needs to do instead of the tiny joy cons they currently do.

Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 review: Despite pointer issues, this is still 3D platforming at its very best | VGC
The Switch 2 Joy Con shouldn't have the same issues the Switch 1's gyro has with the constant calibration and drifting. It's much more consistent in that regard. I've been playing Skyward Sword, World of Goo and Okami with it, and I've been requiring much less calibration than it did on Switch 1. Ho

My school bought a bunch of Switches to use as a "reward" activity for middle school kids. What could this look like, and how best to manage?
My first purchase would be screen protection for all consoles, but especially for the Lites. A regular switch can still display to the TV with a cracked screen, but a Lite is toast since it can't connect to anything else. I'd also consider a controller budget.. Stock joycons are notorious for issues

Nintendo Switch Firmware Update 20.5.0 is out now
I can’t take it anymore. I pick up my Switch. I check for updates. “A new system update is available.” I hesitate… what if this one breaks something. Maybe it will ruin my precious smoothness and stability. I hit “Install.” The system restarts without a hitch. The notice reads: "General system stabi

Why didnt they make these able to charge with USB?
I think Nintendo was being clever at the time. However, some Nintendo-licensed joy-con chargers don't fit either!

What a nostalgic blast from the past!
I’m so glad DK oldies are preserving and repairing Nintendo’s legacy consoles for all to enjoy at a price point and quality Nintendo would approve of. I also remember that princess peach sprite, she’s from my favorite classic Mario game, Super Mario 3D All Stars Collection, only available at DK oldi

Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 review: Despite pointer issues, this is still 3D platforming at its very best | VGC
The alternative is awkwardly holding the controller against a surface while playing normally This is literally the use case that Nintendo already advertised for games like Metroid Prime 4: one Joy Con used as controller, the other used as a mouse. I guess it could be too awkward in a game that hasn'

Nintendo and their weird control restrictions, Been playing Galaxy 2 and the handheld tilting is such a pain on tough levels. Wish they'd just let us use mouse controls for single player too. At least the Joy-Con drift isn't as bad this time around.

Guys and girls, I have a question.
As for me, I always do it with regular size controllers. I struggle to do so on Nintendo Switch JoyCons.
