Fuck no
>Shit dpad (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOZ4EsGVBhM) when a 40 dollar alternative has the best dpad in any modern controller
>70 dollars for no improvements over the WiiU Pro which is 40
>70 dollars for 40 hours of battery life when the WiiU has 80
>70 dollars for worse stick placement than the WiiU (Having dpad and face buttons on the bottom across from each other felt like there was a snes controller built into it and worked amazingly for emulation)
Get one of these and the mayflash adapter. It'll total out to less than the Switch Pro and be a better PC Gamepad.

Switch Pro is genuinely one of the worst controller of our time.

no one cares. if it was 4 and 8 hours, then I'd agree

I'd pick a 360 controller over that piece of shit. They're practically the exact same thing down to the wretched dpad and stick placement. But at least the 360 one doesn't cost SEVENTY FUCKING DOLLARS

>>386373831

free (You)!

>>386373968
It's literally closer in design to the 360s dpad than it is Nintendo's usual dpad design. They used a cheaper dpad because the Switch is rife with cut corners to save a couple of bucks.

I like the way it looks, but I don't think it's worth $70

I'm confused about the d-pad thing. I've played through shovel knight, blaster master zero, and mighty gunvolt burst with 0 issue, yet everyone seems to think it's total ass

It probably works well enough for some games that don't involve too much use of up and down, but trying to play Puyo Puyo Tetris with it just sucks because you'll be making so many unintended hard drops.

I mean, if it was $30-$40, I wouldn't feel that bad about it. D-Pad is also on par with the Xbox One's and arguably better than DS4, but with those flaws and a $70 price tag, it's pretty meh. If you really want to go with a wireless controller, pick up the Wii U Pro. It's got some of the same problems, but longer battery life and a more ergonomic casing. If you just want a controller at all, the Xbone ones recently dropped to $30, and it's arguably the best one you're ever going to find under $100.

These is not cheap plastic, it's light but sturdy. Kinda like carbon fiber but not really. Even the picture shows how much effort they put into designing it.

>>386373194
I had two of these, and the right stick on both of them both got fucked up from regular use.
Unless connecting them to my pc via an adapter is what fucked them up.

>>386372782
Yeah it's THE best controller for general use imo. If you want a Dpad for platformers then you should just get a separate dedicated controller such as the 8bitdo pad.
>>386375115
The face buttons feel great and I prefer them over the convex Xbox buttons any day. And digital triggers are better 99% of the time except for driving simulators. Btw if you're going to get an Xbone controller for PC at least get an Xbone S controller as it has Bluetooth while the original does not.

>>386375524
I had the same issue with the adapter. It means you got a defective one apparently.

No. No one listen to this. I don't know why people suggest these non-stop. I fell for the meme and ended up with a garbage tier controller that started falling apart the second week I had it

If you wanted a dedicated platformer controller then get a Saturn controller with a usb converter

The argument for digital triggers is why we've got shoulder buttons, dingus. Better to have the option of analog for shit like driving and what not than to throw out the option for all games entirely to save the .01s it takes to pull the trigger.

I wouldn't say it's great, I wouldn't say it's awful, but for what it is it is good. I really never had any complaints using it, as a gamepad it is just fine.
That being said, the price is absolutely abysmal, it really should be $50, maybe $60 tops but that is really pushing it. The sad thing is that it's more affordable to get a bunch of pro controllers than it is to get joycons.

>The argument for digital triggers is why we've got shoulder buttons

The issue is that the analog triggers are usually in the more accessible/comfortable position. If you're not playing games that make use of the analog functionality then it would be better to have digital shoulder buttons in the more natural/comfortable position instead

For example the digital shoulder buttons the the Xbox One controller are uncomfortable as fuck to use for extended periods of time, while your fingers naturally rest on the analog buttons

>>386372782
I paid extra for the splatoon version and i have used it once. All i ever want to do is play in handheld mode

>>386376509
I hate playing in handheld mode, I can't ever see shit, especially when using motion

>>386376725
if you have steady hands then you can always turn up the sensitivity

>>386375115
It actually does support wired connections through the USB cable. It works with the Switch, but I don't know about PC implementation.

>>386372782

Yes

I still prefer the DS4 but I like it better than the XBone pad.

Any of you guys with experience regarding 8bitdo controllers? I kinda want to buy the upcoming SNES one with motion, but I just want a good dpad for Switch games.

>>386372885
That's not the DS3.

Op here, I got my switch a few days and I'm looking for something better and sturdier than the joy con grip.

No.

It's pretty good. If you have smallish hands then it may be perfect for you. The build quality is good, input lag isn't too bad and the controller feel is good. Just kinda small is all.
