    I found a Midnight Blue one in the clearance bin at walmart last year. For $20, they are awesome! I don't use them all the time, but I do use them playing handheld around the house. If I take it with me, I use the stock joycons since they fit in the case I can toss in my bag.

    What a game changer! I recommend getting the attachment piece. Makes it a switch and pc controller. Perfect for fighting games on the switch as the D-pad is much better that on the pro controllers

      True from an overall ergonomic perspective, but when you factor in that it doesn’t have rumble or an internal battery, I can’t see this being more than $25.

    If you keep taking those things in and out of a switch you see those big square things 1:59 the squares back there where the railing is that will rub against the back of your switch every time you put it in and take it out and before you know it you will leave permanent scratch marks in the shape of a little square on the back top left and right corners of your switch.

    I paid $49.99 for them at Walmart and reading that people bought them for less doesn’t really bother me because they’re awesome and it really enhances my overall experience! I highly recommend these to gamers that are looking for something different than the original controllers that OLED switch comes with.

    How is this for small hands? I've read the Pro has better buttons than the Compact but I'm indecisive due to the reason mentioned.

    • @iReviewThis
      @iReviewThis  6 місяців тому

      I’d say the Pro should still be a comfortable gaming experience for smaller hands, but I do think the compacts buttons are very similar if you’re on the fence.

    Nice review. You should do the hori split pad compact. I’ve been using that a bit and I really like it.
    Also worth adding - tomtoc makes a slim case specifically for these hori split pads and it’s a great case.
