| BeatdownBrigade said: I'm just casually sitting here wondering how a controller not even released yet is without a doubt better. It could be better. It could also be recalled multiple times and suck. You don't really help yourself in a conversation when you make assumed statements throughout your argument with literally no information to back it up. Gyro is better quality? How do you know. It could literally be the exact same gyro component in both controllers. Hell it could be a cheaper one you literally have no clue. Used more/better? Combination again of opinion and literally foresight you have no knowledge of HD rumble being better than the DS4: Again the controller is not on the market and they only showcased this in the joycons. You have no idea if this true or not. Could be, but speaking in absolute fact on the matter defeats your entire argument. Better build? Again its never even been in your hands. You've not broken the controller down to see the quality of its components. You've not done endurance and wear tests on it to determine its longevity. All you did was spout a bunch of opinions that may or may not be true that you have no way of actually knowing and you attempt to pass it along as factual platitudes. |
It's more so an educated guess though.
Gyro is pretty obvious. the controller is used to play games like Splatoon 2. splatoon was amazingly successful, and it's clear Nintendo understands the need for gyro controls for some players in Splatoon. Having gyro controls worse than DS4, or on par, would be sub optimal.
HD Rumble : I have heard two things from people who demoed the switch in new york. One is that HD rumble is the real deal. The second is that HD rumble didn't work for some games but worked for the demos. this can mean two things. one : the people saying HD rumble doesn't work are like the people saying the 3d doesn't work on the 3ds, they're a bit tone deaf. two : some games are optimized around it. Considering that only a few games even need the feature, I won't mind if only a few games use it properly. That would be perfectly fine. Also, I don't know why you think the HD rumble is "better" than the DS4. I don't care enough about the HD rumble to use it as a huge point against the DS4. THe Ds4 doesn't even have HD rumble as far as i'm aware.
Better build is obvious, Nintendo is known for the build quality. Quite frankily Nintendo could take the cheapest material and make it just as strong as the competitions expensive material. How the control is built is mostlys subjective(as in the shape). Which is most durable...that's practically guaranteed. I'll get back to you in June and tell you if the Pro Controller has a ruined thumbstick and other malfunctions.
They're not opinions, educated guesses. Just like you do in science. Don't understand the hate. Do people really want to drive the narrative that the Pro is so overpriced just so that they can hate on Nintendo? What is the point in arguing this? It is almost entirely obvious. The only reason i'm saying it isn't definitive is because I don't have it in my hands right now. If I did I could guarantee it. Why should I wat 3 months and spend 370$ just to prove a point to someone?
If you want me to just shut up and not have any opinion on the price of the product, i'll do so. But then other users should to until the actual controller comes out. After all, it could be the best thing since the Playstation 1.
