  • The $20 Zero 2 is a good replacement for Joycons turned on their side during Mario Party/Kart, and the Lite 2 has made great progress from the original Lite and would make a solid $35 wireless Switch controller if you can get past the small dimensions and actually get to use the stellar Dpad.

    @Gamer Heaven As a fellow controller aficionado, I'm curious to know what your charging situation is. With so many wireless controllers, first party and third, you must have a hell of a charging station setup.
    I'd like to know if there's any kind of dock or cradle that can host a multitude of different controllers. I'm personally a fan of those little magnetic adapters for USB C and micro that let you quickly click a controller to the cable, and was wondering your thoughts on making a custom charging dock for any controllers that don't have one.

      @@Dc-jz9rf so we actually went with the power A nano Xbox controller because he plays primarily on Xbox. it's almost the perfect size for him, being just a lil big in his hands but such a vast improvement. but the next controller were getting is the small 8bitdo with the two joysticks. can't remember the name but it's the one being compared against in this video. he plays cod mobile and also uses Xbox cloud streaming on his tablet so the 8bitdo will be perfect for that. even with an OTG cable his power A wont connect to his tablet, so that's where the 8bitdo will come in handy. hope this helps buddy 👍👍

    @boothatron 6 місяців тому +6

    You've hit the nail on the head. It's not quite thin and portable enough for pocket travel and wouldn't be my first choice for home gameplay. They need to have a small controller with analogue sliders that is fully pocketable.

  • @DanielMontenegroBass
    @DanielMontenegroBass Рік тому

    I have the Lite 1 that has 2 D-Pads and I enjoy it a lot because of how portable it is... The Lite 2 for me has a huge problem, and that is the fact that que analog stick in not lowered to the same level as the plastic body of the controller, and the bumper also make is not perfectly straight... That gets in the way of carring like, 4 controllers stacked in a small box (that what I do with the Lite 1)

I know that wouldn't really apply to this video - I'm more thinking the full size gamepad reviews. Either way, thanks for the awesome content!
