is the switch 2 pro controller worth buying?
how long would I have to wait for them to make some cooler special edition?

>>713769825 (OP)
no hall effect lil bro
get pic related for switch

>>713769937
I'm never buying chink shit
ever

>>713769973
All of them are chinese just 3rd parties are more premium

>>713770073
wrong lol

>>713769937
>Game saar
Lol lmao

>>713769825 (OP)
I'm surprised they didn't announce a DK yellow one already. Maybe by Christmas we'll have a Pokemon one or something.

I like the controller a lot, but if your concern is hall effects or analog triggers, then you'll have to wait for 3rd parties to make something that is compatible with Switch 2, meaning that it can actually wake it up. Current 3rd parties can't wake it up.

>>713770220
how long do i have to wait for an actually cool pro controller
like a Xenoblade or metroid one

>>713769973
SAAR BUY ZHII OBAPLITH PRATHIC

>>713769825 (OP)
I got one for 60 bucks earlier this week (had a discount code from Walmart fucking up my console pre order). It’s a very nice controller, but I’m not really sure it justifies the price tag.

If it was $70 or $75 I could see it but $85 is way too high. If you can somehow get it for cheaper, go for it. It doesn’t do anything that other controllers haven’t before, but it’s absolutely one of the best in terms of build quality and feel

>>713769937
>saar please buy the indian controller, thank you
holy fuck dude, kill yourself

>>713770305
>but $85 is way too high
Isn't that partially on the tariffs, too?

>>713769825 (OP)
>>713769937
Handlet-coded controllers.

>>713770305
they're $70 on amazon

>>713769937
Do the needful, and get the benchode controller you basterd bich DO NOT REDEEM

>>713770437
I’d say $70 is reasonable for it assuming it lasts as long as the Switch 1 pro controller does. I’ve had that thing for almost 8 years now and it’s still ticking like new.

>>713769825 (OP)
If you like the Switch Pro controller, it's an even better version of it.
I just wish they added analog triggers.

>>713769937
As funny as the name is. Almost all Hall Effect/TMR controllers on the market today are better than first party controllers.

>>713770564
but is it worth it if i already have a switch pro controller?

>>713769937
ABXY are in the wrong positions

>>713770437
Why do you lie?

>>713769825 (OP)
I love it. My switch 1 pro controller lasted the entire generation and this one feels basically the same.

>>713770635
It depends on if you care about being able to turn on the switch with your controller or if you care about the c-button. If the answer to these questions is no, you're fine.

>>713770647
You can flip the buttons, that's one of its gimmicks

>>713770769
i care about the headphone jack and back buttons

>>713769825 (OP)
Is the d-pad still crap like it was on the original?

does this shit work on PC?
if not when is it getting drivers?

>>713770635
If you’re debating it, no. I only really got one because I’m in a financial position where I can waste a bit of money on a nicer, but redundant controller. I could absolutely get away with just using the old one if I wanted to, and I don’t think a lot of people will really notice or care the difference unless they’re autists like me (and I’m assuming you).

If you’re really on the fence I’d say save up and grab it with a game you’re excited for later down the line. The thing that convinced me to get one was playing DK Bananza with it at a demo kiosk while I was shopping at Target the other day.

>>713770819
Not yet.

>>713770871
unironically i want it because i play tf2 on my deck and use the back buttons for switching weapons and this controller would actually let me do that

>>713770940
WHERE
ARE
THE
DRIVERS

8bitdo Pro 2 is the best $50 controller you'll ever be graced with. I recently bought another one after I had one that started to drift after 2 full years of heavy use and some occasion drops on the floor but even the drift was tolerable and less horrendous than modern controllers. This shit is practically immortal and 8bitdo recently dropped a firmware update for this and some of the their controllers to be compatible with the Switch 2.

>>713770993
DON'T KNOW!

>>713770972
You can get way cheaper controllers with back buttons if you just want those.

>>713771001
I have one of these, it’s just alright. The sticks are too low for my liking and the face buttons kinda feel like shit.

>>713771176
i don't want chink shit

>>713770798
I didn't even know it had a headphone jack.

As for the back buttons, they feel good. Nothing I've played (Mario Kart, Bravely Default) has much you'd need them for, but I bet it'd be handy for fightan

>>713771325
Then buy the pro controller I guess

>>713770378
Only a $5 increase. Not much, but still more than it should be

>>713771364
i want to use them for splatoon and pretend like that game has anything technical

>>713769973
Got you bro.

>>713771419
I have a steam deck and I think these back buttons feel a lot better than those do. Sorry if this isn't helpful

>>713771463
Bought a few PowerA over the years and they all had problems.

>>713769825 (OP)
The sticks on this are amazing

>>713771528
This one has hall effect sticks.

all those controllers are basically the same thing. just spend 50 bucks on anything and it won't matter, it'll be fine

I got a Cyclone 2 secondhand, no dongle. Can't seem to get it to working on PC via Bluetooth, it pairs but doesn't register in games. I've tried Dualshock input mode and apparently Xinput won't work on Bluetooth.

>>713771560
i "stick" my dick in your mailbox every day and it's amazing

>>713771582
Had problems with the buttons too

anyone got those joycon gamecube controllers with the hall effect sticks? they look alright but I would like to see how they feel in the hands

>>713770798
The jack is nice although there is a small audio delay that can be a bit annoying. You don’t notice it in games like MKW but in something like splatoon 3 you do pick up that the sounds don’t exactly sync up with the action on screen, and i’m sure it’s especially annoying in games where that’s crucial like a rhythm game. It’s a nice convenience, but if that’s important you’re better off with one of those usb wireless headphones
Back buttons are a nice convenience though and easy to program/use. Got ‘em mapped to sub/special use in splatoon and makes playing feel a lot better

>>713769973
>I'm never buying anything
ok bro

>>713771724
splatoon is not a game you should admit to playing anon

>>713771724
wireless headphones would have the same delay
wired chads win again

>>713771001
>This shit is practically immortal
>started to drift
doesn't sound immortal to me dawg

I'm still using my old Switch 1 pro controller that has the BOTW skin on it. Works wonderfully after all these years, I see no reason to buy another when the old one works. If you have the old one, use it. Saves you money.

>>713771463
thank god 8bitdo and gamesaar took over
powerA is an absolute shit company releasing horrendous controllers designed to fail within 2 weeks.

>>713771787
Why?

>>713772003
They fixed that shit. All their controllers have a 2 year warranty now.

>>713771787
Not proud of it
>>713771794
I do have wireless headphones that I use and there’s no noticeable delay. Meanwhile when plugged in even on the main menu I can tell it’s off

>>713770305
Guess I’ll add a bit to my review since I remembered how much I like the gyro on this thing.

Tested it with a few shooters like Splatoon and Fortnite and it works really well. I’ve recently been playing shooters with gyro on since I get hand cramps with mice (especially after using one all day for work or whatever); the improvement has been very noticeable.

Hoping steam input gets support for the thing soon so I can get other games hooked up with this thing.

I just bought the charging joycon grip so I can actually get some use out of the things. It's comfortable enough that I can wait for a fancy new pro controller.

>>713772082
there's still delay, you just don't notice it
the best melee player in the world was using wireless headphones in online tournaments and getting fucked up until someone told him to use a wired headset and all of a sudden he started winning everything again
wireless headsets are dogshit for gaming

How's the new gamesir g7 pro?

>>713769825 (OP)
1st party controllers are a scam. Always go for the cheap chink knockoff.

>>713771001
I have this, buttons and rumble feel super cheap.

>>713772787
Very good controller Sar. Please do the needful and redeem.

>>713771001
I got 2 of these, the battery life is good and the controller is fairly ergonomic (the left thumb stick makes my thumb hurt though)

>>713769825 (OP)
I bought it because I find the joy cons terrible. I was pleasantly surprised as the build quality is great and the buttons are very very good. The battery life is also extremely good. However I have a handful of complaints and I find it overpriced.
1. The grips are tiny which is weird because the face buttons are huge whuch I love because I have big hands.
2. The underside buttons are too out of the way and I would have preferred 4. You can do it with 2 but it is not really enough for shooters.
3 The spring in the left analog is simply too strong. It is tiresome to use It for longer periods of time.
4. Doesn't work on PC.

>>713777065
>spring too strong
now I want it
resistance in sticks is what makes them feel good

Why cant I just plug my xbox controller into the usb c port
I hate consoles

>>713769973
Every controller is made in asia

>>713778340
no shit retard
but Nintendo obviously has a higher level of QC

>>713770442
kek

Sadly they don't do PS Controllers.

>>713778596
How many big defects does nintendo need to have in their controllers for you to realize that that's bullshit
A 3rd party controller with TMR sticjs will last you 3x as long for 2/3rds of the price

>>713769825 (OP)
The snapback on mine is really bad. It kept fucking up my menuing when playing Pokemon and Zelda.

hold your stick still buddy

>>713778596
>qc
>nintendo controllers

>>713780849
I've had one pro controller since i got my switch and nothing ever went catastrophically wrong with it

what's the likelihood of a prime 4 related controller

>>713780927
The dpad is defective out of the box on all units and they didn't fix it for the switch 2 either.

>>713781164
that's what the snes controller is for
pay up faget

It is insane for me that they did not add analog triggers for the switch 2 revision. I don't think I'll buy the console.

>>713781164
It's never been defective for me

>>713781360
>analog triggers
usecase?

>>713781360
I can't believe they didn't add r/l-stick clicks, or the minus button to the GC controller specifically for the switch 2
