>he bought an old pro controller with shitty d-pad

youre in for some video games

S

Best console in generations.

enjoy your soycons

The newer batches of the regular pro controllers have been fixed too.

u

I myself am getting a Switch tomorrow. What does the new one look like?

Pretty sure every batch following the Xenoblade 2 Pro Controller has the altered d-pad.

Fun

And you have a proof for that as well as a method to check the batch right?

afaik only XC2 has a fixed dpad but it is still pretty shitty (I have one and it still registers right/left when I press up/down sometimes)

It doesn't look any different, the d-pad is just better. The first one with the new d-pad was the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 style controller.

>reeeeeeeeee

>No rating on the Zelda box

Where are you from OP?

Jesus. Hmm, I might wait then? I should be good with the Joycons for a bit anyway.

But shouldn't it have a PEGI rating?

Newer fixed Pro Controllers have "C" in the model number instead of an "A" apparently

Hmm, maybe its a Brexit thing lol

A pretty good time, look at getting a MicroSD on sale so you can carry some games digital with ease.

Pro controller is pretty great except for the D-Pad, in most of the titles out on the Switch right now I'd say it doesn't matter but for certain games you'd probably just use the joycons instead.

Why didn't you check what you're in for BEFORE spending more than three hundred dollars on a console and accessories?

>The first one with the new d-pad
All pro controller have the same d-pad the xenoblade one being fixed was made up by some faggot on reddit

Thanks a ton for that info. The Pro Controller will probably be best to play Bayo 2 on I'd reckon.

>All pro controller have the same d-pad the xenoblade one being fixed was made up by some faggot on reddit
No they've fixed SINCE the xenoblade release. Some of the original batches from launch had a slightly 'looser' d-pad.

The regular controller is fine though

All two of them

You are in for the best console experience since the PS2.

Yeah, I bought a pro controller at launch last March and the d-pad is fine. I don't know if it was a regional manufacturing issue or what but mine works fine.

Decent first party games and ports that looks and performs terrible.

>ports that looks and performs terrible.
How?

Skyrim looks and runs great on Switch.
LA Noire is arguably better on Switch.
DOOM is a solid port of a current gen game which fits in your pocket.

DOOM is getting a patch this month too

It would be sweet if they added gyro controls.

It's good for what it is, but it's still the worst experience of all platforms, but i guess if you wanna play doom on the go for whatever reason then you're set, the other games are last gen, it would be sad if it isn't able to at least match last gen.

The only reason you should get a switch is first part games and the portability, everything else is done better elsewhere.

>The only reason you should get a switch is first part games and the portability, everything else is done better elsewhere.
Thats entirely it. People are buying the Switch because its offering something other systems don't have.

I have no idea why people get so bent out of shape over having different options of playing games. What does this board want? To have just ONE unifying system? How boring and stagnant would that be?

As far as i'm concerned i'm set with a PC and a smartphone with controller peripherals, i'm obviously not the target, the last Nintendo console i've bought was a 3DS, Link Between Worlds aside it was a total waste of money, even with it jailbroken, thus having access to all games available, it doesn't appeal to me in the least.

Then again i didn't like OoT and Mario on the N64, guess i'm the odd one out.
