*The* biggest issue with the Switch retro controllers nobody is talking about
I finally did some tests today, and it’s instantly apparent on my Switch 2 - all of the retro controllers for Switch Online are laggy as absolute fuck, I have no way to measure it directly but it must be at LEAST 100ms; it makes every input feel spongy and unsatisfying and it’s why I hated playing this shit to begin with.

The other day, on a whim, I fired up the NES Classics using a wireless Switch 2 Pro controller and was like: other than the buttons not being configurable, this doesn’t feel bad at all? Like, I’m enjoying this.

So I did some side by side tests today and there’s no question that the Switch 1 controllers feel like ass compared to the new Pro 2 controller. It’s a serious issue because it makes those fucking things basically useless for the entire purpose they exist for.

Just a PSA for the rest of you. And yes, this alone is why the Switch 2 Pro controller is worth the retard tax. I’m sure this applies across the board and is part of the reason why the Switch 2 *feels* so much better to play, even if faggots can’t quite perceive why they think that

It's actually that the NES and SNES controllers don't have a "Home" button for when you open up another game by accident and they aren't compatible and that game is also single player and another controller is unable to connect then you have to flip the console off and on with another controller ready.

just me a Nintendo shill, explaining why Nintendo’s products suck donkey duck and casually using language that no shill in their right mind would use, trying to head off the inevitable fucking retards who claim this is shilling, when I’m actually pissed my Switch 1 controllers are basically unusable.

You fucking clown. Learn to spot authentic users trying to have actual discussion

Nintendo's always cheaped out on hardware. Switch 2 is (probably?) the first exception, but it's also 3-4x the price of more responsive Switch 2 compatible controllers like Gulikit ES or Elves 2, so no the retard tax still isn't worth it.

Yeah I agree Switch 1 to Switch 2 feels like what you just said Switch 2 Pro. Too bad about the third party unoptimized support though.

Yeah nintendo can't figure out why their products have built in lag or they just don't care, it's been a huge problem since the switch 1.
