Is that pro controller made by Madcatz?

Loved that it looks like you'll be able to have one controller in each hand without having to have them connected. It's where I always wanted controllers to go after the Wii.
Shame it looks like the d-pad is gone except for the pro controller.
If I'm likely to take the portable around with me a lot, can I just leave the controllers attached when docked so I can quickly grab and go? Then I'd just buy a pro controller for playing at home.
I take it you never played the Gamecube, huh? Or any Xbox or Dualshock controller ever in your life? Pretty much every dual analog controller except the WiiU's had the face buttons above the right analog stick.
It is depressing how cheap and ugly it looks.
The pro controller looks great.
The detachable controllers look like a total mess and, IMO, are a bad decision. I hope there will be a revision down the line that totally abandons that. I think Nintendo is wildly overestimating the "party on the go" appeal of the Switch. The guy on the plane in the video, why did he even detach the controllers? Why wouldn't you just keep them connected to the screen?

Anything less than 1080p in 2017 is unacceptableAnything less would be unacceptable by today's standards.

To show that you can play without them being connected to anything
I actually love the JoyCons and the kickstand. Makes the system even more versatile.The pro controller looks great.

I think - just as the video shows - instant two player Mario Kart without any accessories will be big for couples.I guess that works. I just question how many people are actually going to use it this way. Obviously just IMO, but I think this aspect of the Switch will flop hard. I see people playing it like a traditional portable system or at home with most likely a pro controller (that Nintendo will gouge us for). I don't see this "in between" party play being appealing, hence my desire for a revision down the line that doesn't have the detachable controllers.
Because split controller play is comfortable.Qwyjibo said:The guy on the plane in the video, why did he even detach the controllers? Why wouldn't you just keep them connected to the screen?
Amen.The lack of a real d-pad on the standard controller of a nintendo system is sad.

meant right side
Huh? That they're shown used without being attached (either individually or as a pair) indicates that they MUST be communicating wirelessly.If he is using it with Joy cons detached on a plane, presumably the joycons don't communicate with the main unit via wireless of any kind? Could they be IR like the frankenstick for the old 3ds?
In some pictures you can see shoulder/trigger buttons shaped similarly to the Wii U's, just much more scrunched together.I can't be sure there are shoulder buttons with all the potato quality pictures, it's driving me crazy.
Can anyone 100% confirm:
- Analog triggers
- Triggers + shoulder buttons

For better or worse, it's just like the left face of 3DS in that regard.The joycon doesn't look comfortable to me, mainly because the analog stick and the button are directly above/below each other, how can my thumb move comfortably and quckly between buttons and analog with that setup.
Power?
I agree with this. You have to go over the analog stick which is terrible.I don't understand how the analogue stick can be directly below the buttons on the right side of the controller. How is that not a huge pain in the ass to play with.
He is right though, and the buttons aren't directly above the analog stick for playstation controllers.Have you only even played on Playstations before?!
I'm more worried about the right side because that side are the action button and camera control, you'd be switching between them a lot more than the left side where you usually use the analog stick most of the timeFor better or worse, it's just like the left face of 3DS in that regard.
