FWIF the video complains (rightly so) about the difficulty of disassembly and maintenance, not the controller itself.

Only problem with 8bitdo stuff is that the rubber on the sticks eventually just break after half a year or so, its cheap but it is what you pay for.

>we haven’t yet met a potentiometer-based stick that’s drift-resistant.
What about all the potentiometer-based sticks of the 7th generation consoles and older?
And this guy completely missed out on how this one is designed so that the sticks hits and are stopped by the rubber rings instead of by the sticks' gates like is the case with the previous pro controller.

This was a really bad video in general.
>Built to break
>Not so pro
Is the title and thumbnail. And yet he doesn't actually substantiate this in the video at all.
All he really substantiates in the video is that it's a bother to disassemble. He implies that all potentiometer-based sticks are prone to drifting, doesn't explain why or how, and he isn't even correct considering the many examples of potentiometer-based sticks that have endured countless of hours without drifting.
He doesn't cover how the sticks are actually designed tear and wear less on the hardware. Instead he just scoffs at how the resistive film on the new sticks are slightly thinner than before.

It's a ridiculous fucking video. Is he just trying to ride the fuck-nintendo algorithm or is he unironically being paid?
That was pathetic. Just watch Nerrel's video. He isn't exactly being kind either but at least he doesn't bullshit.

PS3 controllers have other issues such as how the rubber foam propping up the controller matrix deflates with age, which makes the matrix move around as you move the controller, which makes the controller prone to registering button inputs you aren't even pressing.
But the sticks weren't prone to drifting.
And gamecube sticks weren't prone to drifting either. People have played countless of hours with them.
And PS1 and PS2 sticks still work to this day and are unlikely to drift even if you had used them for countless hours of play.
I can only assume early Xbox controllers were about the same.

The real question is why it is so cheap. They could increase the price by like $50 and sell just as many.

Oh wow, this is bad. Glad I decided against buying it. I hope my Switch 1 Pro Con got a few more years in it.
So, I heard a new buzzword: TMR. What's a good controller that has that? I want something new to use with Switch 2 and preferably it should be able to wake the console (serious dick move from mario corp. Buy a new controller if you want to wake up your console! Yeah, nah, fuck you, I'll take a couple steps and press the button). Looking at 8bitdo Ultimate 2, how are they? They seem like they are on the premium side of chinkshit, but also good reviews.

Why are so many invested in this psyop that potentiometer sticks will 100% start drifting? You can call out design choices without being a disingenuous fear monger.

They also imply that you absolutely will have to replace the battery before long, which is more ridiculous nonsense. Controllers don't get anywhere near hot enough to cause significant lithium battery degregation. There's no reason to believe you will absolutely have to replace the battery of a controller within the life cycle of the system.

There's more than enough actually wrong with the Switch 2 Pro controller to recommend against buying it, exaggerating so much isn't necessary.

I always skip to the end of teardown videos to see if the person assembled it back or not. If he doesn't I close the video, his words have no value if he can't put it back together.

ive had like 2 controllers total wear out on me before the console lifecycle ended and they were both 1st gen ps3 sixaxes

they barely even make any video games to fucking play anymore
your controller is not going to wear out

buy it or dont
buy a cheaper shittier disposable one
buy a more expensive fancier more durable one

I had to do this for three days because my Pro Controller 2 shipped after my Switch 2. It was awful, do not recommend. Not being able to wake the console with a controller is one of those things that sounds like no big deal for the sake of saving 85 bucks, until you spend a few days waking the system by hand. The back buttons and improved gyro controls also make it worthwhile over the original Pro Controller.
