    Seeing this image just reminds me how far downhill Nintendo has come in controllers. Joycons are just SO bad. Sure the Pro ones might be tolerable (never touched one) but the default being a joycon is just absolutely pathetic.

      Oddly enough, my switch has the original controllers. No drift on em.

      Granted I mostly use a PS4 controller on my switch so they do have limited use on them.

        I don’t even mean the drift. They’re just shitty controllers in every way. They focused on portability, which is terrible for comfortable controllers.

        I don’t own one, but I’ve used them enough to know I hate everything about their feel. Buttons are terrible.

        I hate everything about them.

        They got so close to perfect with the GameCube, and it’s been a steep ride down into hell ever since.

        Wii U’s controllers were ok, but the confusion about which controller worked for what was a mess in general (ie what needed the gamepad vs what could be played with a regular controller or wiimote even), and their idea to switch the button placement and joystick placement on the right was just objectively wrong.
