    Nintendo should just make a pro controller that you can pull in half and then use in portable mode, that way you get the best of both worlds. Keep all the features that make the Pro Controller great, motion control, NFC, USB-C, but also allow it to be split and used while on the go or not in tabletop/TV mode.

    I got a pair of these, and they are honestly amazing for what I need. I really do not like using the Joycon in handheld, ESPECIALLY for intensive games like Smash and FighterZ. It just doesn't work well. But these feel fantastic for those games and the dpad especially is great for FighterZ. I tried several intensive games with these including Bayo 2 etc, and its a night and day difference. These are not coming off my switch from now on

      I know you posted this a year ago but i wanted to know how the left stick compares to a regular joycon’s left stick for playing Smash?
      Long story short: i bought my Switch in September last year and have had some drifting action going on a few months in but it started to be really fucking bad a few months ago.
      I got sick of it and went to a game store to buy new joycons and i kinda bought the 15$ extended warranty for some weird reasons and had to return my newly bought joycons a week later so i still go my extended warranty.
      Now it’s barely been a month or so and my Joycons are starting to have some kind of input lag action when i play Smash and even makes my character do things such as grabbing when i want to shield or spot dodge at random when i want to dodge roll.
      I’m about to go claim my extended warranty joycons tomorrow but also am literally on the verge of ordering the split pad. Thing is i haven’t seen people comment much about how responsive the sticks are compared to the crapcons.
      Can you give me some honest feedback please?

  • @George_Delis
    @George_Delis 5 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    Hi Bob, great video as always! At 1:40 you say that you cannot play Let's Go, but you can use the joysticks to aim when you are in handheld mode. So, even though not ideal, you CAN actually use the HORI Split Pad Pro to play it. Hope it helps!

Having them separated and by your sides while playing single player in docked or table top mode also works well for me, they also aren’t awful in the grip thing either, but for some reason attached to a switch in handheld mode is just unbearable for me.

    Honestly, I’ve been using this for 4 days now and I have never considered it cheap feeling. The grip texture on the back really makes this comfortable and it does feel super high quality. Also you keep mentioning build quality when in all honesty, the Joycon feel worse than this, especially in the thumb sticks. The fact this controller has proper sticks that don’t drift alone make this controller amazing. Also you said you can’t play Let’s Go with this but you actually can, in handheld mode you can use the left stick to aim where you throw the Pokeball and then press a to throw

    • @TeddyBerry
      @TeddyBerry 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      These do genuinely feel like hollow plastic shells though. They work absolutely fine, but they do feel plasticy. How can you already claim that they don't drift though? That comes from wear and i seriously doubt you've used them enough in 4 days to claim that they 100% will not drift. I'm not trying to shit on them, i really like them aswell, but let's be a bit realistic.

    • @amirfoox7432
      @amirfoox7432 5 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      I think the hollow design was deliberate to keep them as lightweight as possible. It's a handheld device afterall, plus heavy pads would also risk the side rails on the console even more.
      As for drift - they don't employ Nintendo's mechanism, these are full size controller sticks. They'll have their own issues for sure, drifting most likely won't be one of them.

    • @nickp7364
      @nickp7364 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      TeddyBerry They’re not going to drift because of how the sticks bases are made, Joycon have those really cheap crappy thin bases that cause the drift while these have solid good bases like a PS4 or Xbox so it’s already confirmed it’s not gonna drift, also I’ve never really considered they feel like hollow shells, idk if it’s just me but personally I love these things theyre leagues better than the Joycon

    I think for the mass consumer Daemon x Machina is an okay or just a regular game that they can pass or buy in a sale. While some reviewers are there hating on the game just to hate on it while openly saying they don't play/like the genre.
    While actual fans of mechs and ac are loving the sht out of it as its the only thing we've gotten in a long while. Story is bland for the game but customization of mech is great and fluid but story to be bland is to be expected. Alot of similar Japanese based games focused more on gameplay than plot at that stage.
    (You got like GameXplain review where the footage shows he doesn't boost alot and his excuse is he boosted only in embargoed missions so he couldn't show it.

      @@RaymondBottoneTV I've been using the SNES30 Pro (not the Pro+, which is the newest one w/extended playstation grips) for the new SNES games on Switch and it's been PERFECT. Especially since it has the ZL and ZR buttons for the new "jump-back" feature. This thing just feels right when playing SNES games.
      If you want an identical controller to the old SNES controllers, without the added joysticks or buttons, I'd strongly suggest picking up the older SNES30 from 8bitdo. You can use it for the new SNES Switch app, or for any of your other retro Switch games (as well as PC, Android, and Mac). The new SNES controller that Nintendo is releasing can ONLY be used for playing on the new SNES Switch App, nothing else.

    Just thought I’d add my two cents. I have both the satisfye grip (with the elite case) and the split pad pro, and I gotta say, I prefer the split pad. The analog sticks, the dpad, and the larger buttons feel amazing, and honestly I’m really digging the chunkier (sturdier) yet symmetrical feel. Just sent my left joy con in for drift repair and gotta say, didn’t really miss it at all while I was using the split pad (plus no worries of drift on this thing). It actually fits decently well into the elite case, so I can use that for portability. HOWEVER, personally I despise motion controls and am lukewarm towards hd rumble, so for me, I’m perfectly fine without either of those things. I usually play odyssey docked with the pro controller anyhow. I can see why you think the build is pretty cheap, but personally, I think the comfort it gives is damn near unbeatable and the quality it does have is more than serviceable.

Basically just going back through all my games, and playing them in handheld with these have made them much better experiences. I heard the Switch itself has gyro (stuff like Labo) so in theory patches for games could come out that would allow gyro-aiming still? I'm hoping that happens (Splatoon 2, etc).

If I could afford to do it right now I'd kickstart it myself as I think these are the sort of joycons the world is waiting for. Finally, they'd come in an ipega style stretch fit thing so they could work in TATE mode or horizontal mode (therefore of course they'd be wireless compatible).
