  • This is a Split Pad Compact unboxing and review for the Pikachu & Mimikyu Edition, and Gengar Edition controllers for Nintendo Switch! In this detailed video, I review hands on the face buttons, the control sticks, the sticks deadzone, the grip, and even the sound! These controllers are for handheld mode only and do not support HD Rumble, Gyro, or Amiibo functionality. These controllers are perfect for the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet DLC for Nintendo Switch and they're much more comfortable than the Hori Split Pad Pro. These are the best Pokemon controllers.

    Which do you like better? Pikachu/Minikyu, or Gengar Edition? Would you use these?

    Everything you mentioned about the og split pad i also experienced. I gave mine away because i hated them so much. Seems like the compact adresses just about every issue i had with the original. I just might check them out! Great video dude

    • @switchunboxing
      @switchunboxing  10 місяців тому

      Thanks man yeah I think it’s great they must have listened to the feedback because it’s like they fixed almost every issue I had haha. I know people don’t like the lack of rumble and Amiibo though!

    • @manda_maee

      They should make ones that have amiibo and rumble and call them the split pad compact plus

    I love the shape of the Compact! I always thought that the Split Pad Pro looked too big while the Joycon feel too small (I have to play with a grip if I'm playing more than 20 mins or so). Great video! And fantastic thumbnail 😎🤘

    • @switchunboxing
      @switchunboxing  10 місяців тому

      Thumbnail remains to be seen haha. Might swap it out after awhile! Yeah the Split Pad Pro was always a weird shape honestly. I’m glad they kept working at it.

    Im wondering if any hori gamepad have same stick potentiometer as original Switch pro controller? In case if theres problem on it or otherwise I should avoid third party controllers brand

    • @switchunboxing
      @switchunboxing  9 місяців тому

      I’m not sure what that is, and Hori says they don’t have an answer but that comparisons have shown their stick functions the same or better. In my experience like I mention, I find there to be a bit of a dead zone on the Hori. I don’t think I notice it so harshly on the Nintendo Pro Controller.

    The new back texture they have there on the Compact is easier to clean than the Honeycomb ones on the Pro. Good design imo.

    • @switchunboxing

      OH YEAH I could see that for sure. Ew I’m imagining some chocolate or something lol. Yeah that would be way better to clean great point.

      @switchunboxing oh it is and I recommend it. Although I know you are more a fan of the compacts. They have a totk spc but you have to get it imported from Japan. Idk why they haven't brought it to the US market yet 😕

    Could you still place the switch on the dock with the Gengar joycon attached?

      Absolutely you can!

    • @TheThursty100
      @TheThursty100 10 місяців тому

      Well, the switch itself is slightly wider then the dock itself, every accessory is outside the dock anyways. And since the Pads aren't taller then the switch itself there is nothing interfering with the dock at all

      Aww yeah I remember my Pros did that but I felt like the compacts were much better. If you’re in the return window maybe try swapping em out. But otherwise yeah that kinda sucks. Hopefully it’s not too noticeable during gameplay though
