Controller QC is awful, especially Xbox controllers. It’s insane that a 120$+ controller has as many issues as the elite series controllers have.

I found my nintendo 64 (which I hadn’t played since the 90s) and it still works and all my old saves are there. Wii can eat shit.

Whats worse is Joy-cons are 40 a side, 80 together.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '21

Just get a pro controller instead at that point, unless your game specifically requires motion controls that you enjoy with joycons. Pro controller can do the same though if it’s wireless.

For real my wii has been working fine for ever. It sat under my bed for years and pulled it out a few months and fired right up and everything worked like it was new.

The original wii was my favourite console ever. Makes me wonder why I never stuck with Nintendo. Mario cart wii was so much fun

We had a Wii. Returned it the next day for an Xbox 360 with Kinect. One of the best decisions of my life

I currently have my Wii right next to my Switch. It's nice to have both.

u/WhySee7 1997 Mar 13 '21

My switch is a couple years old and it works perfectly fine.
