Do they have drift
Bruh why is it always amazon links
@@thedotgiver2820 .
“The only buttons that feel the same are triggers, face buttons, and arrow buttons”
So all the buttons💀
Ikr
Shoulder Buttons
Home Button
Screenshot Button
Side Shoulder Buttons
Joysticks

@@therealcroutongod somebody delivers a true fact and gets nerded on I love TH-cam
Yeah the joystick buttons, top 2 buttons, home button, - and + buttons, and screenshot button don’t exist
"I got them so you dont have to"
"Ill leave a link right here so you can get them"
🫥
The ultimate contradictor
Ik it’s a joke but like he means so you don’t have to risk trying them and not wasting money
beat me too it 😂😂😂
Bruh
“I wouldn’t use these as your main joycons” seconds later, “they feel the exact same or better”
Yeah but what if you want to use an amiibo
@@larrystrk6496 Get your real joycons.
@@wet0wl Then just use the real one's if you have them
Does anyone actually use amiibo?
@@Cashimat I don't 💀
Good for people who don’t use amibo
My personal thought is that amiibos are just cash grabs so Nintendo can make more money
For everyone
@@AntonioLoDuca69 true
I have four amiibos so this would suck.
Why would you waste money just to get a jo-con that doesn't have a amiibo scan?
@@raincoatfox2118 I mean most people have no use for the amiibo scan. And if I’ve got drift on joy cons and want to get new ones, would much rather pay half the price for ones that don’t include something I never use anyway
Bro if they half the price, I'd say that already a win, Official ones are stupidly overpriced for their quality.
Agreed all the buttons one mine were unusable
So true. Joy cons get drift in 1-2 years even if taking good care of em
“I bought them so you don’t have to”
*Couple seconds later*
“I would totally recommend them”
You could buy them but you dont HAVE to
“The only buttons that sounded the same, where most of the buttons”
Here's my question.
Do they have joy-con drift
This comment here. I’ll need to see a follow up video in a few months to know if they hold together
@@RookieS8er Not sure if this helps, but I have a pair of fake red and blue ones, I've had them for over a year and I haven't had any issues since. I actually did get this exact pair (purple and orange) just yesterday so maybe I'll see if they're worth it.
@London Plum As splatoon player that plays consisently the motion control is surprisingly identical to original pair of joycons had them for 2 months so far so good.
@@amazeingyt @ me and tell me how it's going please 🙏
@Aiden0912 yes but the joycons are the only controllers on the market that regularly get drift after a few months of use
Bro I have these, the only annoying thing is that they have excess vibration on them, but you get used to it!
Fr
Im pretty sure you can just turn off vibrations in the switch setting and alota games also have it in thier in game menu to switch off vibrations so stop complaining about something thats easily fixable
@@christiansantamaria7233 I wasn't complaining, just mentioning smth, but I actually diodn't know abt the vibration settings, thanks!
@@eeellliiisss how they holding up? I might consider buying them as a 2nd pair since I don't use amiibos as much
@@maxpayz2431 They're holding up pretty well!
Got these a couple days ago because of joy con drift, they are better than the real ones imo
Better? It’s just less functionalities and lower quality.
Btw joy con drift is super easy to fix, there’s no need to buy new ones, and you can send them to Nintendo to fix them for free.
@@charakiga i did send them in. and they broke again in a week
@@octoisalive Well you can repair them yourself and you don’t need to know anything about electronics, there’s plenty of tutorials about that, basically you put a cardboard under the analog stick… and that’s it, permanent fix.
Basically the shell maintaining the analog stick in place moves over time, and it makes it lose contact, and a cardboard puts pressure to maintain the shell.
@@charakiga oh ok
@@charakiga that's only if you live in usa and countries like that here in dominican republic nintendo doesn't even have an official place
also about the other comment the less functionalities is just amiibo and i don't have amiibo so i will probably get em
edit: i just checked and they also don't have infrared camera but like, name a single game besides 1 2 switch that uses that
Me who doesnt use amibo : I see this as an absolute win
Might actually check these out. Great for me since I have one singular Donkey Kong Amiibo.
I have 1 Kirby amiibo that I lost and I really do not care cuz I think that were made to make money off of us
I like how TH-camrs are exploring cheaper alternative to recommend instead of being elitests and saying "Just get the licensed ones"
if ur going to use big words, spell them correctly. i’ve seen tiktok, youtube, instagram; tons of gamers recommending these. so not everyone is an elitist
@@jeffreyh9908no lol
Hot takes: you make them so we don’t have to...
Drift? If not then I'm getting those for sure
if you dont use amiibo its great ig
The most important thing to check with third party controllers (for any console) are the analog sticks. Run a test or open a game that allows 360° movement, move the sticks in a circle motion slowly, make sure the sticks are able to register smoothly and not snapping in 8 points. Also, move the sticks from 0% to 100%, the character on the screen, or car, or whatever should very gradualy move. If you move the stick 30% or more and the character is not moving yet, or is moving full speed at 30%, or the stick has 8 points instead of an smooth 360, then please don't buy it, you'll suck at many games and it will be the controllers fault
"I would have your main Joy Cons as a real pair"
My real pair of Joy Cons won't be Joy Cons at all thank you very much 😌
Watch Nintendo release a system update for the switch to make the fake joycons not work
i have a pair, and they work really good, the only problem, is when You use it attached on the switch and have it pluged in, they tend to freak out from time to time... but otherwise, they are really good
It’s important to note that if you’re getting these for Switch Sports, you need official joycons because the game requires you to update your joycons, and unofficial joycons can’t be undated (I speak from experience sadly)
Other than that, though, they’re really good and it’s very hard to tell the difference unless you’re doing a side-by-side comparison!
We do have a workaround, by just turning off the joycons before pressing the update button, then just turning them on again after
I see this as an absolute win because I don't play Switch Sports and never will
fair but also literally who is playing switch sports 😭
The sound of the fake buttons is much more satisfying than the real
Ikr
I got them before cause my official ones started drifting, they're perfect for me, use em all the time
still usable?
Me who doesn't know what amibo is: "hmm yes very curious 🧐"
An amiibo is like this figurine that you can scan to load into a game. Take Splatoon for example: you can purchase a Splatoon Amiibo and scan it to have it in the game.
"Literally everything a real joy con has except for amiibo."
Me: infared, infared, infared, infared...
Bro you did more backtracking in this video than switch forces on his opinion on Sonic frontiers
Honestly all you had to say was that they’re not official lmao
So? They still are fake
@@officialcouncilofbaf1activ613 That's not what fake means. Do these JoyCons exists only in your imagination?
“Fake joy-cons, I bought them so you do not have to”
😂
I've never have a amiibo in my life so honestly I would never have missed this feature
Hi love your content and very helpful
omg bruh i have the same color joy cons and i thought they were fake but the link i clicked to see the product says they were like 35 dollars and mine was 80 dollars so that’s good
Him: i bought them so you don't have to
Also him: I recommend this
If I show up to someones house and they hand me the "little brother" controllers i'll feel a bit upset about it
Just realised you only have 50k subs, such an underrated channel, you have such goon content
Except for those goofy ahh opinions like you don't need an SD card
@@allo. he says don't buy a Nintendo SD card, coz it's overpriced, and even if you think that you can agree he's still underrated
@@allo. Plus all his horrible takes, man’s takes are as fire as water
@@joehenzell-thomas4513 he said that you don't need an SD card in a video and earbuds are more comfortable than headphones, the stand is fine, and a lot of other bs
@@allo. he means you don't need official nintendo SD cards,they cost way more just because they're Nintendo themed,and when you check that exact SD card but without the Nintendo themes,they're cheaper,I use a 64gb one,that isn't Nintendo themed,and it's cheaper
This guy didn't remember what he say💀
At first:
He said I bought them so you don't have to..
At last:
Link in the comment to get them
Whatt??!?!💀
He’s talking about how he bought them for the sake of reviewing them so that people know it’s not just some shitty off brand joy cons and that it’s an actual product
😭
"SPORTSY, WE HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO FRICKIN' CONTROLLERS, OLD SPORT!"
"I know, Dave."
Tell me I'm not the only one who loves the clicky sound of the fake ones
You forgot to mention that they do not come with infra-red camera as well 🙂
I don't think there are a lot of games that support it anyway so I think we good
It isn't a big deal unless you play 1-2 switch
@@arthurvieira2104 Just saying because games like Resident evil use it to reload the weapons 🙂
@@arthurvieira2104 well, the thing comes with 2 controllers already
And no ✨Drifting✨
no, there is still drift, it has the same exact joysticks as the real one
@@consnoob5023 the joystick itself isn’t the problem it’s the mechanism behind it that’s the problem
The buttons that feel the same are literally the only buttons on the joy con
I’ve been here since 1k good work man
Did they fix drift tho?
Wdym by not making those your main, you clearly said they were worth it and they felt identical, so why would i buy a normal pair of joycons when i can buy those
Because it’s a scam don’t buy them
If you used your little ears he said that if you wanted extra joy cons, you could get fake ones. Like what he means is that you need ONE PAIR that is REAL, then if you want more joy cons you can buy fake ones
Well because you don't know if they are gonna break or drift worse than the official joycons
@@Kazvinsmoke with the official you know they’ll drift after a week
@@SmiteFL i mean if i have faulty joycon i'd buy those instead of the official
Ill add this in too: the input delay is high meaning that the input comes in really late
These are pretty good and if you still have the other zones just switch them to do the amiibos with that
Did they have joycon drift ? (Tell us in 6 month if u can )
That’s what I’m saying
If playstation has drift then these have them too
Sadly i was going to buy them, i was checking the reviews and some people posted some vids, sadly they drift
@idk no bud just because they have those sticks it doesn't mean they will drift, thats a dumb logic there smfh
Also a good option if you’re getting tired of the tilt drift ;)
my cat hates the sound of the fake ones lol
Ok🎉
Do they drift tho?
All joycons are gonna drift at some point
@@m1dn1ghtqt That isn't particularly true. It's a manufacturing error Nintendo neglects to fix.
@@ronster. playstation has drift too
@@pugglypugger4807 Ive played both and Playstation has nowhere near as badly of a drifting problem.
@@ronster. yea but it still exists
+999999 points for no stick drift💀
"I bought them so you dont have too" *Proceeds to send a link*
I have the Neon pick and green Joy-Cons.
I’ve gotten a fake wii remote once
The modern day little brother controller
Waluigi and Wario of joy cons
He even had a Mario and Luigi set
The l and r button sound so friggin good
The fake joycon clicky sounds satisfying to me.
"I bought them so you don't have to."
Proceeds to tell you to buy them.
Thanks I rly needed this video
I bought these around a year ago and I’ll admit, the plus and minus buttons feel really off, and there’s no amibo or ar camera but the good things about them are they’re half the price and they don’t get drift nearly as fast as the official ones.
my problem with fake controllers,
I had fake controller for a while, (and still do) I never noticed anything bad about it, it about felt the same. BUT, this bothered me, the color of my neon orange controller showed up as RED. it bothers me to this day and I don’t know how to fix it.
I believe you can update the firmware to show a different color
" I would Have your real joy-cons as a main pair" 🧛
I don't have any amiibos so this is an absolute win
They are okay as a spare but the buttons wear down alot quicker than official joycons, there can be input lag and they do get drift.
I mean, it be good for a back up if your real ones break in case you never know, you’ll just have them as a back up till you get real ones back
The click on the fake sounds just better
These ones are resold by taobao .original price is 1 dollar
the louder clicking is honestly a W for me
nintendo sells switch pro controllers for 90 dollars, i bought an offbrand one for 18 dollars and it still works great, after half a year, no amibo support tho, but i dont care for amiibos anyway
But I don't want intense Tokyo drift whenever I go to touch my joy-con
Bro i wod say defently recememdet bc you do not need allways a amiibo joycon where it coast 40$ more so defently worth.
THIS IS SO HELPFUL THANKS I WAS THINKING OF BUYING THESE
Well I say it’s worth it you get get official ones that can read amiibos with the switch and for working ones just without those that are half the price, that’s a steal
i mightve gotten fake splatoon joycons that have stiff Z buttons, but id rather accidentally squidbag everyone than miss my aim completely because my old ones had the WORST drift
Splatoon 2 and 3, good pick
These seem good if you feel like not getting drift on special edition ones and don’t mind not using the beautiful ones
These are the joy cons I used to finish off the BOTW dlc and I LOVE THEM! Also highly recommend as they don’t need to be plugged in nor do they need any special conditions
The reason why it's so cheaper with having almost every joycon feature is. The amiibo reader is why it's so pricey, atleast to my train of thought, it has to not only have a NFC Tag reader but also writer built into that tiny joystick, while also the joy stick working, and not being able to snap off easily when playing.
My dumbass thought it said CAKE and REAL in the thumbnail, I was really set on the left ones being cake
We bought some "fake" ones as we got sick of the official ones having the drift problem. Just as good IMO.
But inevitably they got the drift problem over time as well.
I hope they sort that before they release the next version of the switch
Dude my mom actually bought these for me and I agree! I have a pair of official animal crossing joycons, so they are great for a back up/when you need more controllers to play with friends!
I got some other ones that had their very own handles and they already had the drift problems.not again.
yeah thanks dude, def gonna by for jd2023, mario kart, and pokken
Bro moved both joycons in splatoon 💀
As long as they have vibration and gyro then it's ok in my books 🤘🏾👍🏾🙏🏽
These seem perfect for me because I don't use amibo
I am a dedicated splatoon 3 player and i saw that the motion delay of fake joy-cons are extremely terrible…
I actually prefer the sound of the bumpers on the fake joycons
I actually got these because my main pair of joy cons broke and I didn’t have the money to replace them and I will say after a few months of using them they do hold up really good
Worth it to give to your friends when play coop games
you can do fake pro controller
I bought some fake ones off Amazon for $20. Feel and function the exam same as regular ones, definitely worth it
I got them before this video is made and these are my main and they work perfectly fine
Only problem I've run into with my own fake joycons is that the vibration is extremely loud compared to the real ones, which can be annoying at times
I’m so glad because I found the first person that has those joy-cons, we match lmao
These could make making your own custom joy-cons far cheaper so thanks I was going to buy some official ones but might look into these a bit more as the base joycon
Not going to lie the fake controller triggers sound better than the real controllers trigger buttons
Fr it's feel better since it's lighter to make the handheld experience more comfortable
My normal cons amibo reader broke (I have NO IDEA how! They don't even have joy con drift!) So I could deal with those!
