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.

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!

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.

Should I get a Steam Deck or Switch 2

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

ANALYSIS: PS5 sales drift behind PS4, while Sony says it’s undecided on PS6 release date and price | VGC

The Switch 2 made sense. The Switch 1 was at its limit in so many ways, advancements in handheld consoles had made big strides, and the Switch 2 is a tangible improvement over the OG. Agreed. It's been a little over two months since I got mine and I'm still in love with this device. It feels like wh

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

Nintendo needs to have a switch 2 kirby air ride bundle to boost the player base. if they did that and had a special kirby joy con or something to the switch I’d honestly sell my switch 2 to get it lol

I love the original color scheme for Switch 2, but I wish they would change it up more for new variants

Missed chance for Nintendo. Why would I ever buy new JoyCons if I can' barely see the difference...? There's no motivation for me to ever buy a second pair.

One year later and this did not aged well

ps5 and xbox series don't use any magnetic technology, i just looked it up I think even if nintendo wanted to, it probably wouldn't work with joyon 2 due to form factor and the interference with the magnets attaching to the switch 2 s2 joy cons are not identical to s1 and clearly have some improveme
