  • I've used nothing but the Switch Joycons since day one. Hearing nothing but good things about Joycon alternatives, I had to try one. The NYXI Hyperion Pro's look amazing but how do they fare and are they worth buying? Lets take a look!

    Something that is rarely mentioned about these in review videos is that the right joystick is placed lower than other versions of the Hyperion, and similar controllers as well. This means that your fingers will expand more when you use a lot of camera rotation in combination with trigger usage, and your right thumb might end up in a odd situations. To me this didn't feel very ergonomic at all and ended up being a dealbreaker. The Hori Split pad is way more comfortable for me and resembles the official Pro controller, which is somewhat the golden standard for the Switch. I really, really hope that Nintendo will release a split Pro controller with the next console!

    I know you guys feel. But i must say, i rather my system to come out the box brand new, Slim, like SUPER THIN. It should be my decision to add bulk and that what i LOVE about the Switch, i can SWITCH!

      Quite impressed with NYXI so far as well. I just can't believe I put up with the joycons for so long with good alternatives available.

    I've got one! I like the controller but they are shaking in the adapter, like wobble. Does anyone have the same issue? =/

    Thank you for the regiew. How much battery life are you getting on these? Could you also let me knkw thr width at the widest part of each of the sides? I'm wondering what it I order these ane they don't fit in my Skull & Co. case. Thank you so much!

    • @KeiRetroGaming
      @KeiRetroGaming  Před 3 měsíci

      I don't think they'd fit in your skull n co case unfortunately since they're extremely wide. I also haven't tested the battery life on these as they seem to be near stock with a joycon. Of course if the LEDs are on they're likely to drain a bit more.

    One of my biggest issues with the joycon is the left one that doesn't have a real d-pad. D-pads seem to be an afterthought nowadays, but Switch has so many retro inspired games that woukd be best played with a good d-pad. How is the d-pad on the NYXI Hyperion Pro?

    • @KeiRetroGaming
      @KeiRetroGaming  Před 3 měsíci

      It's a pretty solid dpad in my opinion but also a tad larger than usual I think. I could easily use this to play Sonic though.

    I heard the moba pad m6 hd was another good option. I’d try them out if they had more colors available

    • @KeiRetroGaming
      @KeiRetroGaming  Před 3 měsíci +1

      That one looks pretty interesting as well, but I do agree on the colors. Quite happy with the GameCube purple on this one.

    Nice video. I bought the Nyxi Hyperion Wireless months ago, it was the cheapest controller I’ve ever used. Worst switch product I’ve ever bought, broke in less than a month. Super cheap and light feeling. I can see some improvements here, but I can’t trust them yet.

    Remind me, what does the Japanese in your intro mean again?
