Google?

Hell, I learned about it from a thread right here in gbatemp. One about hall effect sticks for joycons that apparently have a "clicking" problem. No clicking on my KingKong 2 Pro though. I also forgot to mention that It has a turbo function, if you're into that. It's about $70... https://www.amazon.co.jp/s?k=king+kong+2+pro+controller&crid=37P9HUFCZQBMV&sprefix=king+kong,aps,227&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_9
I just watched Linus review this controller and I'm sold!



I'll go around looking for a deal on it.

I’m watching the same controller. I added it to my Amazon cart. I’ll get notifs when the price changes. Looking at Amazon reviews, a few people have bought this for $40USD. Their review was from July. So maybe prime day will expose a sale. Or perhaps Black Friday. After fixing my switch joycon with the gulikit sticks, I can wait for a sale.

That's a good point, it has been cheaper in the past so I'll wait for one of those sales.

Linus was surprised the Switch Pro Controller didn't have analog triggers made me chuckle. lol

I mean, it's weird SPC doesn't have, but it's still a great controller overall. I've been using it for gaming with RetroArch on Android.

I don't believe a word of anything this guy says, he even knows what a bit is but what all of us believe he is the most great guru of all times.

Fake DS cards are not too common are they?

I gave up collecting GBA games because there's a lot of pirated cartridges. At that point, I'd just rather download the roms. 😕

oh please. Linus knows more than you ever could hope to. There's a reason why he's got a successful tech and YouTube channel.

a guy, one of those "infuencers" got drift on this very controller (that was not supposed to).

Defects happen in any industrial made products at some rate so it may not be indicative that is bad or anything, but just for you to know...

(also, 8bitdo also uses magnetic sensors but they charge more, so I don't believe it is a 1:1 substitute)

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
