So. I have 2 I hate.

I had this old gamesube one for the switch. It was a wired one by powerA. Buttons would get jammed, accidentally broke the stick by leaving it in a bad position overnight (my bad) the cover of the cstick randomly slid off (had to glue it) and the while thing was hollow.

Also, I have a keapster explorer and the dpad is awful. Sometimes it jams to the left but its just a plain bad dpad, no physical feedback at all

Hot take: Nintendo Switch Joycons. They're a nice and clever concept but in reality they're bad.

Too small even for casual games. The Wiimote was much better at it.

Very expensive at 80 € per set. Yes, you get two of them but in most games outside of Mario Kart you also need both. And even then they're fine at best.

4 out of 4 of my controllers got stick drift. Nintendo had to be sued into repairing them.

I think they are actually really good at very specific things, the clicky buttons are great for ace attorney and tetris
