Zelda D Pad Joy Con (Left) (Hori) /Switch

The d-pad works well and feels great to use. The overall quality is top-notch! The response time of the d-pad and joystick feel amazing, just like the OEM joycons that came with the Switch OLED. I primarily play in handheld mode only, so this was the perfect joycon for me. Easily 5 out of 5

It well made feels lighter than a regular Joycon but it's nice.

To clear some things up: First of all, this joy con is HANDHELD ONLY. Please don't blame the seller when you didn't take the time to read. Second, I saw a few reviews criticizing the design, specifically the position of the analog stick and the d-pad. This is meant to mimic Nintendo's joy cons, it is their design model and not Hori's you should be aiming at. I bought this to replace my drifting left joy con. In terms of materials, I will say that you do get what you pay for, but I didn't mind what I got here. The shell is a lighter, see-through plastic, but it's not slippery. There's no battery in this, so it's very light, but I didn't notice when I was playing. I did feel the lack of HD rumble at first, but I got quickly accustomed to it (it tends to rumble enough throughout the whole console anyway). The capture and minus buttons are rubber instead of the standard hard plastic. I like the capture button better this way, I used to accidentally bump it far too often on the regular joy con. The minus button was already hard to press for me due to my small hands, this is no different, but having it be softer made it a lot easier to find and easier on the thumb when pressed compared to the hard plastic. The release button is raised rather high, and I'm not sure what the reason for this could have been. I wasn't bothered by it, but this might be inconvenient if you have a case without any wiggle room. Lastly, while I know this must drain more battery because it has to in order to function, I didn't really notice any extra drain. However, I expect very little of the Switch's battery life already and rarely play outside of the house, so I'm the least likely to be bothered by this. Does it drift? I play a good handful of intensive games 10+ hours a week, and it's held out longer than my original, more expensive joy con, so do with that information what you will. Overall, if you play mostly handheld/only play in TV mode with a pro controller, this is a great replacement, especially if you're trying to avoid the dreaded drift and don't want to spend $40 for the official replacement.

It adds a traditional dpad to the left joycons. It loses all the extra functionality for that because the left joy con has no battery or gyro. It's handheld mode only. If your comfortable with the current joycons size and want a dpad it's great. If you want something bigger I'd go for the faint ex machina switch pro controllers. There handheld mode only but much larger. Pick what's best for you.

If you need a quick fix for the left joycon drift issue this will hold you over until you can get the actual joycon repaired or replaced. Overall its a great and affordable piece that allows your console to WORK until 2020 is over and we can actually find left joycons again!

It is extremely expensive for a handheld mode only joycon. It does not support pairing via Bluetooth

Like the look but be aware no rumble, no player LED, no SYNC BUTTON, no sl/sr buttons, no accelerometer/gyro sensors and worse it only works connected to the switch device - no TV or tabletop mode functionality. (Per instructions). Yet, cost almost half as much as a set of joy cons with all these functions operable. Not sure it's pretty enough.

This joycon works great for me. I don’t usually use the wireless capabilities so the reduced price is a bonus for me. I just wish there was something similar for the right side.

This is a wonderful product. I bought this as a replacement for my left joycon, which developed some stick drift, a common problem. This joycon is similar in weight to a standard one, with well weighted buttons and similarly good control to the basic joycons that come with the switch. It can't be used when the switch is docked, but it's excellent for mobile play. The capture and minus buttons are made from rubberised material rather than the more standard hard plastic, which isn't a bad thing ultimately, and caused me no issues through several hours of play. The Dpad is easy to use, and whilst I haven't used it as genuine directional control yet, it feels through other play as though it would work well for that. I've had none of the occasional disconnection issues that I've experienced with other joycons, and the joystick itself fits my joystick covers perfectly which makes for a comfortable play experience. Not to mention the fact it is /absolutely gorgeous/ to look at, and now makes me very excited to look at my switch! Only downsides I can mention are the aforementioned lack of remote play, and the lack of rumble in the controller; but it's also around half the price of buying a full joycon, so I'll take that tradeoff. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking to replace a drifting joycon who plays predominantly mobile play.

Habe mir dieses Produkt auf Amazon gebraucht gekauft! Ich spiele tagtäglich mit dem Joy Con und konnte bisher nichts negatives feststellen! Er ist definitiv leichter als die anderen Joy Cons und fühlt sich von den Tasten auch etwas anders an, habe mich aber sehr schnell daran gewöhnt! Wäre definitiv noch super wenn es den auch für Rechts geben würde statt nur für Links! Alles in allem bin ich sehr zufrieden, Preis-Leistung ist Top und er funktioniert immer noch tadellos! Kann die negativen Bewertungen nicht verstehen!

Venduto e spedito da Amazon, il prodotto è arrivato puntuale. Confezione originale ed integra. La confezione presenta sigillo adesivo che garantisce che la confezione non è stata mai aperta (cosa molto apprezzata, un tocco di classe in più che nemmeno Nintendo casa madre fa più!). La confezione comprende: - un Joy-Con SINISTRO compatibile con la Nintendo Switch/NS OLED, da utilizzare con la console soltanto in modalità portatile. Descrivo il prodotto. Il prodotto corrisponde alla descrizione ed è pensato per chi vuole un utilizzo con la Switch solo in modalità portatile. Non è adatto a giochi che prevedono l'uso "staccato" dalla console, cioè la modalità wireless. Al tatto, il Joy-Con (prodotto da HORI con licenza ufficiale Nintendo) si presenta liscio e leggero, ben fatto. Il design a tema Zelda è perfetto e non presenta difetti o sbavature. Questo Joy-Con non include vibrazione, connettività wireless, accelerometro e giroscopio, ed è perfetto per i giochi in modalità portatile. I pulsanti Meno e Cattura Schermo sono in gommina morbida e rispondono molto bene al tatto. I quattro tasti direzionali del Joy-Con sinistro sono stati sostituiti da una croce direzionale, che trovo ben fatta e comoda da usare. Ho testato le funzionalità con un paio di ore di gioco con Zelda e Animal Crossing. Tutto bene. Per adesso, ha un buonissimo grip e nessun problema di draft. Conclusioni. Per chi sta cercando un'alternativa per la sola modalità portatile ad un costo contenuto, è veramente il top di gamma. Consiglio al 100%

An amazing Zelda detail for your Nintendo Switch. It does not work when the N. Switch is docked to the TV.

Très léger. Il répond bien aux commandes. S’utilise seulement sur la console.
