Hoping some compressed air in there will fix it up. It's good to see replacement Joy-Con sticks with hall effect sensors being offered. So long as you're fine with replacing them, and the price seems to be around £30 or so for the pair, this seems like a good solution. I decided to pre-order one of these controllers for the Switch, which offers hall effect joysticks, a proper d-pad and a few other improvements... https://nyxigaming.com/products/nyxi-wizard-wirleless-joy-pad-for-switch-switch-oled It has the same layout as a GC pad, functions like a pro controller, seems to work wirelessly and wired with the charging cable, and has a few extra buttons. I've no idea how it will be to use, and it won't be shipped for a while but it looks decent enough. The site isn't that great for ordering from, though you can get a 10% off discount code, which makes the controller/oversized GC joy-cons around £50. It likely won't replace an official GC controller for Smash, but it could make playing that game and others in portable mode for longer than half an hour a possibility.

Posted January 23 Plus it's the same colour as the second best console colour which is a bonus. The best colour should be obvious to all. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 23 I wonder if those Joycons could be modded with OEM GameCube controller parts… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
