As someone that had joy-con drift. Yes there are games that are very much affected by it. I don't know where those people who said otherwise were coming from. Sometimes even just navigating the menu is a pain when it constantly keeps making you want to go down. I'd like to see them try to do precise movement in a 3D game when the camera is constantly moving or even your character.
*cries in ACNH terraforming*
Nintendo doesn’t manufacture their own controllers so you should be criticizing the manufacturer not Nintendo 5:23
@Madness Arcade Yes but at the end of the day Nintendo is in charge of those controllers and owns the rights to them. If there are problems with a product, they have to go to the manufacturer and tell them something is wrong. At the end of the day, Nintendo has the final say.
@@madnessarcade7447 Nintendo put their name on them. It's on them.
There is nothing more Nintendrone than defending Joycon drift.
I have joycon drift on my lite
@@That.One.Kid_ that sucks dude
I never had toycon drift and even mine second switch (oled) has no drift
I don't really have joycon drift on my joycons, but yeah, they need to fix it.
@@TreblePhoenixit’s so annoying bro u have no idea how lucky you are
Some joycon drift defenders say that their joycons don’t drift. You not having it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist
Murder isn't a problem, I haven't been killed.
When I still don't have it at all after about 3 years despite everyone saying that it is super common I am going to say that it doesn't exist, at least for the 2020 version of the switch
i thought i was the only one who loved the joycon grip 😭 attaching the joycons to the grip is so satisfying
Hot take: There NEEDS to be a proper mii channel/a way to access it from the home screen. You know those buttons at the bottom of home screen (settings, switch online, album, controllers, etc)? There needs to be a mii channel/button added to that. The way it is now is not user friendly at all and it's such a pain to get to. With the wii it was so easy to access and it made it a lot more fun. This is probably the reason I had so many miis on my wii but not on my switch. Also, there needs to be music themes for the home screen (preferably something simple and subtle like the wii) and the different apps like settings, eshop, etc. And finally they DEFINITELY need to add the mii channel theme and add a mii plaza for the miis to walk around on as that was half the fun. I hate the way it is right now because it makes the miis look so static.
This video was great! Also thanks for including my hot take in it :)
I agree that the Wii U and 3DS has more personality then the switch
The Wii U is and 3DS was the child that was raised up with happiness (until one was "accidentally abandoned" while the Switch was just a robot they built to function
6:31 since they made a Switch Lite and it’s literally just handheld mode and you can’t remove the joycons or anything, I could totally see them making a Switch Pro that is just a home console and doesn’t have handheld mode.
The portability of the switch is the selling point, without that portability there’s nothing to differentiate it from the Xbox Series XS and PS5
@@JohnnyHikesSW it's a joke dude
@@JohnnyHikesSW yeah, but it would be able to have all the same games as an Xbox or PlayStation, and also have games like Mario Odyssey, Tears of the Kingdom, Splatoon 3, Pokemon, Mario Kart, etc. So that would be the purpose of it. You get all the Nintendo exclusive games, plus all the games that can’t currently run on a Switch.
@@MiloMurphysLaw but you can’t play your games if someone else is using the TV, which is why I use my switch more than my Series X
I agree that the stand looks better on the base model, but it breaks off so easily (Unless there is something wrong with mine)
No but fr my stand breaks in the first few days of getting it fixed
@@ThatBish380 Hello fellow geometry dash player :)
I haven’t had mine break, but it’s actually so bad as a stand. I tip it slightly and it falls over lol
mine falls off all the time too, luckily i can snap it back in but still im surprised i havent lost it by now
i don’t think i’ve ever used the stand before tbh. i forgot it was even there
The fact the they made it so Joy-Cons can be played sideways I think is the whole problem they have. If they had make Pro Joy-con with a traditional controller feel like being bigger, having better buttons and a D-pad and giving them somewhere to hold the from, but retaining the ability to be _switched_ would have been amazing
My game card flap works. I take really good care of all of my stuff so I guess it worked on the game flap and kickstand because they both work well and have never been broken or fallen off.
A working kick stand huh... lucky... my game card flap still works after 5-6 years
@@BlueFishyAkaRedFish Yup, a working kickstand somehow still. Same with the game card flap. That's good that your game card flap still works!
including myself i know 8 people with switches and never even heard of the broken card flap problem is it really that common?
@@kirbystar634 nah
my card flap on my lite still works
13:15 my game flap still works and I have had my switch since 2018
Same
I always used to think of Nintendo as the funny Japan company but now they are the corporate American guys
I don't know if this is a hot take but if it keeps it up I actually prefer this NSO bundle to Virtual Console. The thing is, Virtual Console games you had to buy all individually while in the NSO bundle they are all just handed to you together for a base price. That seems like a pretty darn good deal to me.
Ya but u pay way more for it in total
@Pointless Garbage Do you really though? There's quite a few games on NSO. Especially when you only include the basic subscription and how much that is worth
@@StenExStended the thing is once that service ends all those games are GONE virtual console even if the online is discontinued you can still play those games (unless nintendo makes it so that you can play them after they discontinued online but eh I aint them so who am I to know)
@@SMPandanic That's very fair actually I didn't consider that. I guess only time will tell
same here
YOOOOOOO I actually made it in the video!!! Thank you so much for including my comment 💙
Thanks for putting my hot take in the intro of the video btw it was a joke
Sup DJ
I’ve only ever had two main issues with my switch. The first was my doc. The place my screen docs into was way too loose and wouldn’t recognize that my switch was actually docked. My second is that when I’m in handheld mode, my controllers freak out if im not constantly pushing them down into the system itself, as if they’re even a millimeter off the bottom (fully clicked in) the screen for connecting controllers will pop up. Other than that it’s a great system all around
My game flap works perfectly on my 2017 switch, switch lite, and switch oled. My friends switch game flap doesn't like to close, I think people are just opening it wrong and it's making bending to much making it hard to push back down
God, I need to let this out.
YOU CAN FIX JOY-CON DRIFT SUPER EASILY BY YOURSELF, WITHOUT EVER OPENING UP THE CONSOLE. Just go into settings (if your Joy-Con is drifting too much, take it off, disconnect it, and use the touchscreen,) go to CALIBRATE CONTROLLERS, and calibrate the Joy-Con. Simple.
Also, the game card flap works fine on my Switch, and I change games super often.
5:40 also they take literal months to send them back and are costing them money due to resources being spent on repairs
“It doesn’t affect gameplay”
I literally can’t move right on one of my joycon sets
Hot take: Switch Lite is overpriced and should be $150-$170. If it had a TV mode I think $200-$250 would be reasonable.
100% agree
Technically you can connect it to the tv but I understand what you mean
I really wish that the switch had the activity log that was on the 3ds. It’s so dumb in my opinion that Nintendo didn’t add this to the switch
My hot take: is that at this point I prefer playing third party games like Doom Eternal, Witcher 3 and Octopath on my PS5 than the Switch.
Even considering it's portability function, I no longer can pretend I enjoy playing games that are also on other platforms due to the Switch's incredibly outdated hardware that causes some these third party games to not only run at below/unstable 30 FPS, but also with really ugly graphics compared to my other options, though I suppose it is a bit unfair to directly compare it to the PS5 since that's the newest generation and Switch was already behind in power compared to its competitors back in 2017.
That's not a hot take lol, everybody prefers playing it on a more powerful system
@@spike5499 Agreed it's not a hot take the joycons are an awful way to play 3rd party compared to a normal console and if you do tabletop mode then it's not possible on a car ride only at secure places that aren't moving
ps5 is way better than switch so i can see why you feel this way
@@Gaminghj there's a pro controller
@@ilikesonicxbro play 3rd party games on pc like a real gamer instead of white knighting your favorite piece plastic in the youtube comments
16:35 Checkmate fanboy, I complain about modern Mario sport games everytime and have not bought a single one take that
Honestly I haven’t experienced Joy-Con drift in a while. I’ve learn how to do joy stick swaps and it’s pretty easy. Definitely recommend learning this.
16:25 - 17:06
Here’s the thing: when we buy a game, we expect it to be finished and fun to play. Its a problem when there’s glitches and stuff that people don’t like in a game. For example, Pokémon Scarlet/Violet has those weird glitches and bugs, but we never knew this before buying the game. People like these games, so if the game isn’t finished, then why is it our fault that we bought the game?
In wish Nintendo had many themes, background music and eShop music like the 3ds and Wii U
The only reason I would like switch themes is because of how nostalgic the 3ds is to me
thanks for including my hot take. (I thought it would make for a funny part of the video)
His birthday party is gonna be dope
My take is the dock is to big so I took mine apart and made a mini one
I do wish it was more hevy though
“Is it a Switch if it can’t be both portable and a home console?”
Yes, yes it can be, my proof?….the Switch Lite exists…
Plus with the NSO stuff, you can also get Tetris 99
Imo the Switch is fine without home music, but it would add a lot of charm to it. Ideally there would be music and an on/off setting for it somewhere. Also my game flap works and I’ve had my Switch since 2017.
Hot take: these "unfinished" games are their way of giving people the middle finger because people refuse to wait for them to get planned projects done, have ridiculous demands for games, not letting devs make games they want to make, constantly demanding sequels that aren't needed, claiming everything is done because of greed without taking into account for other possible reasons, etc. which is very much well deserved, so be careful what you ask for/demand because it very much may bite you back, and it'll be no one's fault, but your own
Every single Minecraft fan: WE WANT THE BEST CAVES & CLIFFS UPDATE EVER.
Mojang: Ok *Give best caves & cliffs update ever… but spread out over multiple updates*
Every single Nintendo fan: Do you wonder what Nintendo is making?
Nintendo: What to pick… what to make…
No one:
Literally no one: WE WANT NEW NINTENDO GAMES. NOW!!!!!
My first set of joy-con’s and the first replacement one started to drift, but it took forever and my new ones that I got almost 3 years ago now, show no signs of drift yet.
Where I live Nintendo just isn’t there (you have to buy everything through third-party, which have to import them from other countries so everything is much more expensive) so when your Joycons drift, I have to either buy a new pair (for $110 I think) or repair them in questionable ways.
Here's a hot take. I don't want Nintendo to make a switch two. I'd like to see them go in a more 3DS type system where it's very portable and has a dock that can play on the TV. Imagine modern graphic 3DS style games on the big screen, and it could come with a separate controller for big screen play, and on the go it could be like a 3DS with modern graphics with hopefully two circle pads or joy sticks. And with today's technology like phones which are small and have great graphics, it wouldn't be impossible.
I actually do like the ‘d-pad’ on the joycons bc when I play a 2d game using the dpad on my pro controller it gets the button inputs confused a lot
Personally in my opinion I think the virtual console should be what switch online is and you get the online for a one time $5 or something and you can buy each console like nes for like $60 and just have it forever and just have no switch online just have everything sold separately
I agree. People always ask about what will happen to the old games when the online service ends.
For the themes one I feel like they should have done like what the ps5 did like when you are going to select a game the background changes to each game and the background should be like a game poster or something around there
Imagine an add on for switch that gives it more power to play more games, BUT, there’s a setting that can or cannot add this power to any first party games
Saying NSO is better than Virtual Console is a crime against humanity
Just a few days ago I played go vacation wnd needed to do a shooting game with joycoin drift, it was PAIN.
i never used the stand, i just bought a 3$ phone stand with rubber grips and adjustable angle and its perfect for all kinds of stuff but ESP putting my switch on it....ever since getting that i pretty much forgot it came with a 'stand' lol
Personal I only want music in the eshop and we need to get that but I don’t really want any on the Home Screen I like the clicking sound
the switch joy cons could fall out when you forget to press the back button
I have the OLED and the joy cons that came with my switch just dont stay on at all, the left one can just be pushed out without holding the lock so it comes off whenever I put it in my laptop bag cus it just slides off, and the right one just will slide off whenever any amount of force is applied to it, again without holding the lock button. its an OLED joy con issue though, not a switch or normal joy con issue
I also agree with the dock only switch. They have the lite side already, why not make like the switch Heavy.
My game card flap works, and all of my siblings' do too, I didn't know that was a problem
Hot take: The 3DS Dpad is THE BEST Dpad
I’ve had my switch for almost three years and never had any issues with the game card flap
12:09 ok this is true I will be carrying my switch caring it by the joy con and the joy con will slide out and my switch will fall and get damaged
Oh and I were you nostalgia isn’t worth turning on light mode for 1 millisecond.
What does the game flap thing mean? What about it is broken? Genuinely idk
I've never got the "You gave money for it so you're supporting it, don't complain" like ah yes my food was poisoned but I paid for it so guess I can't get mad
From what I've heard, I've had a LOT better luck with fixing my joycon drift than a lot of people. Also, the joycon d pad buttons make fighting games so much easier for me.
What fighting games are you playing because street fighter is unplayable with the joycon dpad
@@rajgus7638 right now, mostly DragonBall Fighterz and the SF2 HD remake. I'm not entirely sure why I find the the d pads for them easier to use. Might be some weird way I move my thumbs?
@@TheBlahblah86 DBFZ makes sense, but idk how you do it for sf2, how do you even do a dragon punch on that?
@@rajgus7638 oddly enough, I have an easier time with it. Even if I don't often use the dragon punch
@@TheBlahblah86 Wow I couldn't imagine playing street fighter without the dragon punch, that literally the best move!
12:10 they said and _then_ your switch falls and breaks. Because your holding it by the joy cons, they slide out, and then the switch falls because of that
My game card flap always works perfectly
I've had a switch since launch and I still haven't experienced Joy-Con drift, I just make sure I dont drop them.
Im a proud working game flap switch owner
Still waiting for the invite to your birthday Thomas XD
As someone who has had their switch for 2 years my game card flap works
In my country we don’t have official hamburger support, so no free cheese replacement
My right joy-cons both broke in the exact same way I have to repair it again after like 2 months
10:12 yes
My game card flap works fine.
Me too!
Same
One of the hottest takes ever (Probably): Odyssey > Galaxy
Dang. That's a foreign concept to me. I respect your opinion though.
Freezing take
My bsf has a normal switch and I have oled switch and god that screen is so tiny compared to mine so definitely a worthy upgrade
Light mode is better if you prefer not having eyes.
12:08 i think he means that the joy-cons slide out Then the switch falls.
I miss the tv channels from the wii they should have brought those back
What do you mean the game flap doesn't work? It literally works for me
I don't understand what's the point of d pad. Buttons is always way more comfortable.
Also i love playing on grip, because buttons on joy cons pressing very comfortable, better than pro con and it's not makes my hands sweat as pro controller.
I'm not gonna lie, my family literally duct taped our switch doc to the mantle under our tv. The reason being, we got some wired controllers for our switch, and those just kept making the doc fall over.
Oh, and we now have some switch pro controllers, so we don't use the wired controllers anymore.
ok british person what the fuck is mantle under the tv
i agree Toast
the switch does have a mii maker built in its just not in the game selection screen like on the wii
My flap works
I've two switches and both ahve perfectly fine flaps - one is even a launch model.
You know what's worse than joy con drift? That, but on a switch lite. And how do you fix that? I'm actually asking is there a way to?
I had a Switch lite for 2 years and played it every day and didn’t get drift🤷🏻♀️
I never had a problem with my stand on my switch. Well maybe I just got lucky and got the only one that works.
12:45 Mine works just fine. Maybe smth about that I am in Europe and european switches are different idk but I have a 2017 switch
I hate not being able to play retro games offline
How the fuck would selling the switch with the pro controller instead of the Joycons work?? Imagine buying mario party then you can't play it or refund it because you don't have joycons
Im late but i want back the little icons like in the 3ds for the games
The game flap on my switch works and closes properly
my game card works perfectly on both of the swtiches ive had.
12:44 My flap works perfectly. I think I was lucky...
Even pro controllers drift.
My game flap works and it’s either 2 or 3 years old
They shouldve given the switch wii u joysticks, never got drift on that bad bitch! 😂
My game flap works...
I never got joycon drift so i was fine with them
Until a drop of water fell on them and it immediately got drift so i had Nintendo repair them after a couple years but within a week of getting them i dropped one on the floor and broke a button 😂 i only ever use the pro controller
Also for the mii channel it sucks that it’s just a setting now
I don't care about keeping the joycon but please keep the hybrid function. People want a home console for more power but look at the steam deck. Sure it's $100 more but it's so much more powerful that Nintendo could find a halfway point and have a $300 mid-power hybrid. Maybe I'm just saying this because I use both my switch, and my steam deck in handheld 99% of the time, but I personally believe it's a much better idea than ditching handheld mode entirely.
aint the free fix joycon only in America (the last I checked anyway)
my game card flap works as new coz i just opened it once tose whats inside
5:00 in places like Latin America which is where I’m from you can’t get fucking free repairs so yeah, it is a problem
Nintendo Switch Sports is amazing in my opinion. It’s way better than Wii Sports (It is worse than Wii Sports Resorts tho, but that game is my childhood)
I remember when it came out I bought it and played tennis and bowling and I did start to regret buying the game. But when I played soccer I loved it so so much (I hate soccer irl so I didn’t expect to like it that much). The entire game is worth it for me bc of soccer and volleyball, those are so great!
Switch hottake the graphics of switch games are on par with late ps3 and xbox 360 games
