    Thank you for the analog test again! Others just say hall effect sticks and call it a day without testing. These look smooth with no stuttering/snapping!

    This is so cool. Feels so hard for me to motivate picking one up when we're likely less than a year off from the Switch 2 though. I really hope they make one as soon as they can for the Switch 2, perhaps even fixing the loudness of the L and R buttons in said revision as well. It's such a cool unit and if my job paid better I wouldn't have been skipping out on a purchase like this.

    I got mine 4 days ago as a birthday present. Works well on my Oled and V2. If in any case it doesn't work on your Oled, just turn on Pro controller then restart your Switch while attached to it, wait for 5 seconds, then turn it on again. Not sure tho if it will work for everyone but tried it on 2 Oleds. Anyway, nice review man.

    I find this product really good but for two things:
    - You need to press on the screen ( quite a little bit hard ) to remove it from the "gamepad"
    - It doesn't feature a battery so we can extend our playtime
    But having the option of either using the OLED or standard version is something that is really impressive

    Reason why I have it? It’s a wide enough controller to stick my stickers onto. I have a bunch of Animal Crossing stickers and I got the pale green Deck to match the aesthetic and stickerbombed it. Overall I also love the fact that it can be used on Dock move and have almost its features compared to the Hori Split Pad. It’s so bareboned, and expensive due to the licensing. And if you want to use it with the Switch docked you have to buy the set which almost cost as much as brand new Joy Cons. If you have the split pad without the centrepiece, then you’re stuck on handheld mode.

    on the retroflag you mentioned the right stick position would make it uncomfortable as it aligns directly with the face buttons, do you get a sense this is as bad? asking because its in the same position

    It looks good for sure, but I watched your Retroflag review and you mentioned because the buttons and analog joystick is “inline” with each other, the comfort of it is not that great.
    For this one it looks to be the same case but how does a “bigger gap” between the joystick and buttons contributes to “better ergonomics”? Because the Retroflag also have that “bigger gap”.
    That said, maybe the Nyxi hyperion pro would be a better choice?

    Funny how a another company had to step in and fix a problem that Nintendo clearly could have done from the start but obviously had no interest in doing.

This could have been very useful like 5 years ago, like did they expect us to buy new controllers every time one started drifting?

      When Nintendo design the joycons, hall effect joysticks didn't exist yet. Also the Switch is meant to be play how the player's see fit so all the joycon drift issues isn't really an issue unless you own a Switch Lite and can't customize control. Hall effect joystick doesn't doesn't mean they won't drift either, those are brand new, as time goes on they will slowly drift as dusk and goo starting to build up from within and hamper stick movements.
