      A shame more racing games haven't adopted this option, especially for WRC, MotoGP, V-Rally, and especially absolute driff. Right thumbstick throttle can only take you so far, and even then some sim games don't even have this option. Its a shame that they haven't allowed 3rd party analogue trigger controllers to just work as intended.

    The thing I hate about these giant Gamecube style joycons is how they make the Switch such a pain in the ass to take around anywhere. These things are massive and add so much weird weight and strain to the side of the rails, I don't know if I trust them after a while. Also I think the Switch OLED is a really pretty device and feels pretty premium, so idk how I would feel sticking these on and kind of ruining that.

    The gamecube controller layout has always been my favorite style since its release. So literally, all I wanted from these were for them to be as good as or better than my Binbok joycon, with the programmable back buttons, and have the layout of the gamecube controller which it seems to have nailed for the most part. I wish they still would have had the analog triggers so i could map it to my PC as well for games that use the function, but I guess I'll have to keep waiting for that.

    • @CarrotsNotCake
      @CarrotsNotCake Год назад

      They're certainly the best JoyCons so /far/, but I do hope that that doesn't remain the case because there's a lot to improve on with these. Comparing button to button, it's just so far from GameCube controllers. Easy to take apart and mod, though! So that's nice. I was able to put tap on the inside to block the facebutton LEDs... then I learned that they can be turned off. lool. The trigger switches should be easy to replace. The D-Pad is great. But, yeah, there are loads of complaints about them that make it clear that there's a market for a better set of GameCube JoyCons. I'm hoping that Nyxi sees all of the comments & videos like mine, and this one & @VKsChannel talking about the things that were odd to have changed, like the C stick, the face button dimensions. Like... to be so close to the original shows that they want to appeal to the nostalgia, but they fell short.

    • @warbossgegguz679
      @warbossgegguz679 Год назад +2

      The gamecube controller is great for games that are built around it. However, a lot of multi-plat games from the 6th gen play weird as hell on the layout. My goto example is always Soul Calibur 2 and CvS2 having weird as hell layouts because of the unique nature of the GC pad.
      It's definitely a controller designed around human factors. I love how it feels and the ideas behind it, but since it's not an industry standard it's very awkward with most non-GC games. Also, the d-pad is literally the worst d-pad ever. Like, even the 360's is better.

Sadly yeah, most of the issues I hear about it made me not want it too much.

      It's totally the best layout.
      Yes, it is a total shame. It's so close, but the minor changes make a huge difference. I hope that they revise it in the future. I like mine enough to keep it despite my many grievances. It's a fun nostalgic throwback. For that, it's worth the money. And it makes playing Pikmin even more enjoyable!
      If you want another take on this controller, checkout my comparison video and my teardown video. The button dimensions are some of the more obvious differences.

    I have had NYXI brand XL Joy-Cons since the OLED Switch was released. After using them or an extended amount of time, these XL Joy-Cons are great. The only downside is that after a while, the small locking mechanism seems to get a bit loose and sometimes is able to slide off without having to hold the release button on the back. But your Switch won't just fall off the Joy-Cons, so there's no need to worry.

    I am actually really surprised you are complaining about how huge these controllers are. I have small hands and I literally find it to fit perfectly LOL at the same time my hands are dangerously fast, so maybe it's just person to person. I suppose I'm just nowhere near as strict as you are about it. This being said, I also got my NYXI (Nix-ee) Wizard recently, so I've noticed some similar things. For one, while the size isn't uncomfortable to me, it definitely is uncomfortable for a normal dock and the switch's built in stand. An original dock's USB ports are entirely blocked off by the handle, and well.. you showed the other one. I don't have an OLED, kiiinda a broke bitch, so I am not 100% sure if the ports are in the same area. If you have the 2 in 1 V-controller grip/joy con charger stand though, it still works perfect. I am slightly disappointed by the lack of analog triggers as well, but I already knew this going in and accepted it. For me personally, it feels like the best joy con alternative in terms of just using it normally.

    Those powera GameCube controllers are horrendous. We ran a switch group at work and got four of them for Smash.

They're support was pretty fast with replacements and easy to work with so there was that at least.

    I think all the points you bring up are useful to hear. I bought it, i'm satisfied with it, but I also use the PowerA controllers for almost all of my gaming when I'm at home, I find that they have just a very minor delay from the pro controller, and this controller. So I see it as a minor upgrade to my usual setup. It's not something that most people will want, the diehard smash players will use a normal gamecube controller, the macro is mostly useless, the novelty of it is a big selling point for it. But I am completely satisfied with my purchase of it.

    I know someone who was also disappointed with the controller, but I can't quite remember what the complaints were.
    I don't think a lot of Switch games were designed with the GameCube controller in mind, so lack of Analog triggers doesn't concern me. What would concern me is how difficult you say it is to reach the right thumbstick quickly; this would be quite the dealbreaker if I were to play something like Splatoon 3.
    I currently have the Kydlan joycons, which cannot be detached like the NYXI Wizard, but they still work and feel great, so I'll stick with those.

  • @Stonecones

    It solves the flipped button layout for handheld. Main problem with the switch is they followed the perfect Xbox controller. The switch pro controller has a 10 dollar button pack you can buy to put the buttons in the right spot then reprogram them via software. But for 6 years handheld mode has been pretty much unplayable without pressing wrong buttons like hitting b when it should be an a button at the bottom. This gives a different layout for handheld gaming , which older folks will be familiar with from the GameCubes days.

    Got mine a while back. I like it but I do have some problems with it not mentioned here.
    First thing I noticed was the grip was different. The handles are thinner than the actual GameCube and doesn't fit as well on the hand, despite the controller being bigger.
    Secondly playing Smash was fine but I couldn't play Mario Kart Deluxe 8 with it. There was an insane amount of lag from the wireless controller. I couldn't jump and drift when I needed too, most cases it didn't register the button o was pressing. I ended up plugging in an actual GameCube controller as it was really messing up my game.
    Metroid however worked awesome while playing in handheld. That's all I have to share.

The major problem with the switch it does the best controller layout the Xbox but flips the button which leads to pressing the wrong buttons all the time. Lucky the switch pro controller has a set for about ten bucks to switch them then you remap them via switch software to the correct button placement. For handheld there has been no option till now. A different layout then the Xbox and it's the GameCube which I spent 1000+ hours playing yea in handheld don't miss press buttons anymore.

    Here are a couple of thing that took me a bit to figure out. You can adjust the rumble in the controllers individually, hold down the turbo button and press up or down on the left or right joystick to adjust the rumble higher or lower all the way to off. Also you can turn the button lights for the right Joycon off, hold the turbo button and click the right joystick down do this multiple times and the lights turn off and on. It may do nothing for a couple of clicks. I think these have the same programming as their RGB light-up controllers, so as your are cycling thru the program to change the colors (that this doesn't have so it just stays lit) you eventually hit the press to turn the lights off. You are right the light up buttons do make the right Joycon battery die quick. I wanna say using it wirelessly while the system is docked, when the left JC would get to maybe 75% the right JC would probably be between 40 or 50% battery left, so far turning the lights off helps a bit.
