Hori has a joy

There are many users who lack a D-pad in the Joy-Con of the Nintendo Switch, since there are many games in which it is much more comfortable to play, with the help of a four-way crosshead, something of the that the Nintendo console does not have. Hori wants to fix this with a new controller.

Hori has introduced a new Joy-Con to solve this problem. Hori's new Joy-Con adds a crosshead to replace the circular buttons mentioned above. An idea that will be great for many, but it has its limitations, since this unofficial controller can only be used when the console is in portable mode. Other shortcomings of this Joy-Con is that it does not have a gyroscope or accelerometer, as well as the ability to vibrate and it does not have the SL and SR buttons.

Hori Joy-Con will go on sale in Japan in July for an exchange price of $ 24, there have been enough sacrifices to offer an affordable product. This new controller would be a good option when playing fighting games, as long as they do not require the characteristics that have been sacrificed along the way.
