      @jodyanthony how is your dock now? The brand thing on the back always makes the dock bend out a bit and I'm worried about long term isses so i never leave it on when docking which is annoying.

    The point that you're still just using the JoyCon at the end of the day is actually what drew me more towards favoring the Fixture Gaming mounts (S1 for the OG switch, S2 for the OLED). Those let you use the pro controller in a handheld form factor, and it's made longer handheld sessions so much better imo

    I got myself this Ronin recently. I really like having grips for the Switch and recommend someone else get one too. It makes playing in handheld mode more pleasant.
    THE PROBLEM with Satisfye's Ronin grip, which I'm surprised wasn't mentioned, is that, if you dock the Switch with the grip on it, it completely blocks the USB ports on the side of the dock. So, they're now completely unusable while the Switch is docked. If you have the dock that comes with the Switch OLED, like I do, then there's not an extra USB port on the inside to use instead, since that was replaced with an ethernet port. So, if I still want to use my USB ports on the Switch to keep my controllers charged, I'm back where I was before getting the Ronin where I had to remove my Switch from my grip each time. So, that completely defeated the purpose of why I got the Ronin. I wanted to be able to keep my Switch in a grip and be able to dock it without having to slide it in and out of a grip each time, but I can't do that. I recommend people keep that in mind before getting the Ronin.
    It's not the end of the world because Switch controllers, like the Pro Controller, doesn't need to be directly plugged into the Switch to be charged. Any USB port in your home can be used. Still, it was disappointing when I realized my Switch's own USB cables were rendered useless while the grip was on and I wish I would have thought of that before getting the grip.

    Is the Ronin compatible with the ZenGrip Pro Elite case?
    I recently just bought myself an Elite bundle just last Christmas. The ability for the Ronin to dock is a game changer for me, but I really don't want to spend another $90 on an Elite bundle. I'm not gonna buy the Ronin if it doesn't fit in the ZenGrip Pro Elite case, and I'm not gonna spend $90 to switch to the Ronin, so it's kind of a deal breaker for me.

    • @TheIncognitusMe
      @TheIncognitusMe 9 місяців тому +1

      The Split Pad does 2 things that are a game changer. First, it gives you a decent D-pad. Second, it gives you analog sticks with more than .01mm of travel. If you really need these 2 things, then the split pads are just far and beyond the better choice. But if you don't need those 2 things (which I don't, since all I play are puzzle games, RPGs, adventure games, and platformers), then I don't see much of a reason to get a Split Pad over a Satisfye.
      The thing the Satisfye does infinitely better than the Split Pad Pro is comfort. Compare the Satisfye's grip to any other major console's controller. You wrap your fingers around the sides of the Satisfye and you have a death grip on it. You have complete control over your Switch like it was a controller. The Satisfye makes your Switch feel like you're holding a giant Xbox Core controller in terms of the grip. But if you look at the Split Pad Pro, you can't grip it almost at all. It has a tiny little bump on the edge, but that's about it. It isn't nearly as ergonomic as the Satisfye. And I'm guessing that effect is even worse on the Split Pad Compacts, which I haven't tried yet myself.
