If you're using dice, it sounds like it's really RNG heavy It's a good if relatively simple and easy roguelike. There is RNG in the dice rolls yes but the whole game is built around that. With most characters you'll be strategizing your build each run to be able to make use of most dice rolls in one way or other.

The SN30 Pro+/2 are great and all but you should all buy the M30 too.

What are some good replacement joycons, particularly for any folks who have had a similar issue. Hori Split Pad. Satisfye is nice but it still uses the joycons. Get the Pad for max comfort.

I got a 8bitdo Pro2, but I find it less comfortable then my Switch Pro, but it's hard to articulate how/why, it feels subtly smaller or something, or maybe it's just the stick placement or the shoulder design? I don't even have big hands.

I have both and the joycons just aren't comfortable no matter what grip you put on them.

b_d posted:ah both the profile switcher AND the physical platform switch are only on the pro2. the only advantage of the pro+ i see is that it has the option for the concave+convex face buttons. but i can get tthat with the non-pro one that i'm also going to buy. thanks goon's edit: sorry, i'm not getting a non-pro, i'm buying a pro regular. the one with the analog sticks but no grips. thanks. i AM however getting an adaptoer to plug in actual snes controllers. If you're willing to open it up, the buttons are all compatible between models, and compatible with any SNES or SNES replacement buttons (same for membranes).

The United States posted:drat that looks bad. RIP binboks. Too bad, they had batteries so they could work wirelessly. Maybe they needed that space for 'em. Yeah I dunno what that Hori connector is, unless it's just copying the binboks. never got that with my superior regular hori split pad

The United States posted:That looks wired to me Shoot, you're right. The tweet I pulled that from mentioned wireless so I was assuming the wire was detachable, but it explicitly says "not wireless" in the description. Still works for me because I just want to use them in console mode and sit next to the console, but not great for the couch.

I don't even have big hands. i previously had an sf30 pro, the one that was just a super famicom controller plus thumbsticks, so i haven't tried their grips. i hope it's not too bad. i have very mixed feelings about the switch pro controller because it's extremely high quality in every single way except that the d-pad is so bad i don't want to use it for anything that reads diagonals, which is most of the stuff i play. and just philosophically (?) it's hosed up that they made such a bad d-pad when they used to make almost exclusively great d-pads. and it's not like this one is constricted by the design, like the drifty joycon sticks. they just made it bad and they could easily fix it. so i loving hate the pro controller. but it's really good. i have strong feelings about d-pads. Detective No. 27 posted:They got their start ripping off Nintendo controllers. This was their original logo. "ripping off" is a weird way to put it. it's not like they tried to pass the designs off as their own; they were clear homages. i understand why nintendo would shut that down, but purely from a consumer perspective, it's a (minor) loss. but yeah that logo makes it clear it was intended to be "ate BIT doh". which is dumb. and the logo sucks. so no loss there.

i solved maybe like 10-15 puzzles in baba is you before i was blocked by stumpers in all directions. i'm sure i could work some of them out by going back to them and messing around but i'm not doing that. it made me extremely aware of how stupid i am. i don't like it. great game! amazing design. never gonna play it.

I bought metroid dread at launch and found the controls really frustrating, Ultimately quitting at Kraid because it was annoying me too much. Last week I decided to fire it back up and whomped kraid on my first try, then proceeded to make a bunch of progress and started really enjoying the game. Today I figured I'd knock another chunk out and...My save is from like, an hour into the game. I have saved like 20 times since then. I have turned the game off and on multiple times. Lost 80% of my progress for no discernible reason. How does something like that even happen? I'm simultaneously so pissed off and disappointed I never want to touch this game again.

Did you possibly load up a different profile? Alternatively, does somebody else in your household also use your Switch, and possibly overwrote your progress with theirs? Do you have cloud saves? Check that too.

Commander Keene posted:I see the cord coming out of the top in literally every picture on the site, I think that's a USB cable for the grip. It also looks like it has a headphone jack on the bottom that you can plug wired headphones into in order to get passthrough audio. Use Hori Pad for handheld, Switch Pro/8bitdo for dock. A Hori Pad controller itself sounds terrible.

I can't read much of what's going on there, but at the bottom of the page there's a PC section that mentions XInput and DInput. Yeah, I misinterpreted the original tweet I got the link from. The Hori Spit Pad adapter is just wired, no wireless. It's a little disappointing that they didn't go all-in, but it'll still be nice to use them in console mode!

It’s unfortunate wired controllers add a frame of lag for some reason. I wonder if a stick with a brook wireless board would be better for the Switch.

If you're using dice, it sounds like it's really RNG heavy I picked it up and for that price it's well worth it. It gives the same "one more run" itch as Slay the Spire. Good variety in the characters and their variant runs, though some of the challenges feel like total BS (and others cake-walkey). I've had my fair share of unwinnable games so far in some of the challenges but it's so quick to try again that they don't bother me too much
