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 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'

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.

Yes, I think. I always do it with regular size controllers. I struggle to do so on Nintendo Switch JoyCons.

¿Qué compra ha valido cada centavo que pagaste?

La Nintendo Switch 2. Tuve la primera versión de la Nintendo Switch 1, con la pantallita y de mala calidad, al pasar a la 2, y como nunca experimenté la switch OLED, el cambio fue espectacular: JoyCons más grandes manejables y cómodos, una pantalla gigante con una excelente definición y color, y el

Anyone else have their joycon rail levers damaged from light use already?

Nintendo should really offer official pro joy cons with better ergonomics. There is a big market for this and third parties just can't get it right, it seems.

Before I return my M12 S

I really struggle to find why Nintendo refuses to make an ergonomic Joy Con. I feel like a first party Pro Con like the Split Pad Pro with all the Joy Con features (NFC, mouse, HD rumble) would sell like gang busters! Offer them in themes and generic colors! If I had a 3d printer, I could see myself

Hi everyone, I have a serious question am going to change my gaming device PS5 to handheld due to some personal reasons but am confused which should I go steam deck or switch 2 kindly help me with this

I have been repeating this several times. The Switch 2 just works. People say: "Get a Steam Deck" but even though SteamOS is more streamlined than Windows, at the end of the day it is a PC, so you will be tweaking and tinkering with settings, adjustments, controller configurations. It is not a "just

Welche Controller nutzt ihr?

Ich würde ein Controller Kaufen, die Joy Con sind bei der S2 zwar deutlich besser als die S1 joy con aber Controller sind immer noch deutlich angenehmer. Ich nutze den "8bitdo Ulimate 2 Bluetooth Controller". Günstiger als der Nintendo Pro Controller und er fühlt sich meiner meinung nach besser an a

guys…where’s mouse mode?

A mouse has very obvious applications though. If the joy-con isn't comfortable enough for hard-core gamers, Nintendo can always sell more streamlined mice ad hardware as well. I doubt Nintendo would have given up on this obviously good idea already.
