Rise feels almost too casual after going through the last two generations of Monster Hunter. Everything is so accesible and in-game that it feels weird. Like.... I don’t have to keep a tab of kiranico just to know what poo poo drops what or what key quests I need to do?

Yea it's fine, I don't disagree. Is it really good or worthy of praise? Not really. After all these years it feels like a toy relative to other offerings, has nearly completely unutilized elements we pay for (haptics/NFC) and is missing several things that would be better for the money. It's comfortable and has good battery life but it's expensive. It's bad for racing games and it's OK for shooting games. It's OK for games requiring precision movement. It's far worse for other systems use (PC etc) than Xbox, PS or other offerings. So in the end it was "the best option" for the Switch by virtue of being the only option really but it seems that it is no longer the case.

WTF are you talking about, the pro controller is my fav controller to use on PC

I'm pretty sure i ended up usping it more on PC than on switch actually

Weird, but some people's favorite soda is Mr. Pibb so I don't know what to say.

The answer is never. Pac-Man will never stop existing. Nor will Pac-Man ever stop moving. Pac-Man is eternally chomping dots, onward towards infinity.

Preordered one for myself, the pro controller is really outdated and mediocre, hopefully this is a breath of fresh air.
I'm a fan of the SN30 series as much as anyone, but it's amusing to consider the Pro Controller as outdated compared to a controller that's deliberately modeled as an amalgam of a SNES and PSX controllers and (optionally) stylized after a Game Boy.

I’ll give you that it’s slightly overpriced, but it’s basically perfect in my opinion. I’ve used it for hundreds of hours over a multitude of games of different genres, and have never once wished it was any different than it is.

Scholars are some of the most pompous and pedantic people I've ever had the joy of meeting.
Konami if you're not going to give us Harmony of Despair on the Switch, let alone Harmony of Despair 2 in any form other than a bad mobile game, at least give us Castlevania 99.

I'd also accept Gradius 99.

Cuz life sucks, kids. Get it while you can.

The d-pad on the Pro controller is basically unusable for 2d/retro games. The 8bitdo is like night and day.
