Yeah, I can press down on the lower part of the left dpad on the DS4 and the direction will still be left, unlike the $70 Switch Pro Controller dpad

People were mad because the buttons on the joy cons couldn't be used the way you're complaining about. Now you're mad because the dpad can be used the way everyone wanted.

You should probably exchange your defective controller

probably, but i have a friend who has exchanged it twice and both replacements had the same problem so i'm not exactly eager to roll the dice.

that's not at all the issue. you shouldn't press left in any way and have it register as another direction.

I thought the month I waited to actually find a Switch in stock would at least guarantee revision joycons but nooope.

When clipped in the square holder, left side becomes unresponsive 10 feet away. Clear line of sight, no aquariums nearby.

Bought another set. Same problem, but I suspect at $80, most joycons are still launch-day stock.

I feel like single Joy-con mode in Puyo Puyo Tetris should have an option to hold the Joy-con upside down so you can move/drop with the buttons and rotate the pieces with the stick.

Also the Pro Controller has the best d-pad of anything current and thanks to it I've finally been able to unplug my SNES controller from my PC.

The good news is it only takes 4 days to get your joycon sent and returned.

That's actually what people want. People praise the playstation dpad because you can have your thumb on the right button and move it around to also push the up and down buttons.

Shaped like a friend

Tetris sometimes registers a hard drop from pressing left. No amount of "WORKS FOR ME" will change that. Like I've seen streamers say the same thing, people on the forum say the same thing, it's a issue.

It thankfully doesn't matter too much as it's Tetris and lol at getting heated about it when rounds go as fast as they do but it does kinda suck.

Yup. For both 150cc and 200cc this time.

Do we know if the game will be available digitally in 3 hours? I want to buy this game I bought 3 years ago again early as possible.

You change languages in Switch games that support multiple (which is most of the ones that have been released internationally, PPT being the only exception as far as I can tell) by changing the Switch's system language in preferences. No one has language options in-game.

Okay, so I mashed in my SanDisk 128 GB microSD card, powered up the Switch, and right after the Nintendo logo came up, it said it needed to update the system. So I let the faceless update run and after restart the card was fully recognized. Performed a format just to make sure. The system version didn't change.

So, the update to support microSD cards is faceless and separate from the v.2.2.0 system update. Eh.

Edit: Amazon says I won't get my bitter tasting Kart until Tuesday?!! You have failed this city, Amazon Prime.

I saw Target's obnoxious Mario Kart display at the front of their store and checked to see if they had any consoles. Lucky me, there were two left, so I'm now the proud owner of a Switch and Zelda. This was probably a terrible decision right before finals week.
