Switch Joy-Con Alternatives

Have you tried connecting some of those wireless Joy-Con to PC? I've been thinking about snagging a pair on AliExpress, so I could use on my PC (via Steam Input, as it supports L+R Joy-Con) and Android devices (separately though)

I know that some models work for some people and some models are falsely detected as Pro Controller, so I just really wanted to know which one should actually work.

I fkn hate the original j-cons, i had like 5 or 6 pairs, all of which got drift or some other problem within like a month or 2 (or 3), i'm soooo god damn done with them, that's why i came here.

Do any have nfc readers?

I have the same shape as the GC joy cons in the thumbnail but both of them no worky :(

My first Nintendo switch had joycon drift and now my new oled has a button that won't press. Frustrated.

Bout to send in my joycons for the 5th time.

I hate the drift, but I actually like the size. My hands are tiny.

Have you ever tried Nyxi? They look awesome.

Just got the hori split pad pro, they had mega man ones and they looked dope so I copped it

Joy cons are trash. They aren't comfortable and they eventually drift wasting the outrageous 80 dollars they cost.

And they don't have a d pad.

I think you're too much of a Nintendo choad to realize how badly designed & uncomfortable the original Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons really are. Also, you said that the Hori Split Pad Pro & other full-size Joy-Cons are just slightly more comfortable than the regular ones?🤷🏻‍♂️ You gotta be nuts if you think they're just slightly more comfortable.🤦🏻‍♂️ Wake up out of your Nintendo fanboyism coma, it's made you completely delusional to reality. They are made cheaply, some more than others, but they're still far more comfortable than these gnome sized Joy-Cons are? I really wish 8bitdo would make a pair of full-sized Joy-Cons for the Switch, it would be awesome!🤨🎮 📺

The two best joy cons I've ever used are the split pad pro and the third party joycons with the grip fused into it that's on your video. They have everything the split pad pro doesn't have. There's barely any dead zones on the sticks and they have more travel than the original joysticks. The button d pad is slightly closer together with slightly bigger buttons which makes them easier to press diagonally unlike the original joycons. Good stuff.

dude love your voice and how quick you were to the point instant subscribe

Short and solid. I don't have switch and I'm planning to buy the switch oled. And then buy 3rd party joycon.

If these controllers don't have drift I'm sold

Split pad not having rumble KILLS it for me. Otherwise, they are great. But i'd play with a slightly drifty joycon over splitpad, just for rumble. Such a terrible decision on their part in my opinion

I just love laying on my bed like an upside down turtoise and play videogames. The concept of two separate controllers is so good... Unfortunately the drifting issue and the price for replacement (outside of the US Nintendo doesn't replace so easy) completely kill it, thanks for this video, good alternatives presented👍

“Cheaply made” oh so like the original joycons! We pay $70 for joycon drift.

I found the gamecube joycons for 9$ on Amazon XD

I feel like everyone without exception says "people aren't fond on the size of the joycons", like, yeah, but everybody hates them because of the drift

Joycon drift

You're the only one who talks to-the-point and didn't try to make it longer. Quality content.

Any joycons without offset analog sticks??

Wait cheaply made? Look at the drift issue

Which one has the best D pad and can play outside of handheld mode

Curious because I seen it on Amazon the other day and considering it ... what did you think of the Zelda themed L joycon you showed at the beginning with the D pad? Is it worthwhile you think? Thanks.

I have the Vivefox, Hori Split Pad, and Binbok cons. The oddly named Binbok ones are my favorite. They were $50 and are slightly bigger than Hori, feel more comfortable, have a better grip/texture, have rumble, gyro, turbo, back buttons for mapping, and adjustable LEDs in the thumbsticks. I highly recommend them.

I mean , nah thats just not true joycons are dogshit , if i had to play isaac or smash with joycons i would have a better time chopping my dick off honestly

The split pad Pro is fantastic but there is no motion controls 😢

Can 3rd party joycon connect to switch lite?

**Also, no gyro-scope in the Hori controllers, you were playing Spaltoon, i use gyro there!

Joy-Cons are better than Wii-Motes, but in the scheme of controllers on major consoles, they are small and terrible and the drift issue doesn't help. They can do motion which is kinda okay except i hate motion ha-ha. DualSense has blown its HD rumble away. But yeah ill take two NES pads packed in the box over the two joy-cons as my pads, i cant barely hold them as a "solo" controller. I feel like when buying a Switch, a Pro controller is a must have, and i would have rather had that packed in and just made the Switch like a Lite when portable.

I love the Nintendo Switch myself
