SNES Joy-Cons

[big10p]

Just came across these online. Would love a pair, but they're expensive and they don't deliver to the UK anyway, unfortunately. Nice too, that it has a d-pad instead of buttons. If Ninty did an official pair, I bet they'd sell loads.

how much!!!!!

Yeah, not cheap, but I think they're 'hand-made' by customizing regular joy-cons. Not mass produced.

Yeah, Nintendo missing a trick here. Those look great.

They did loads of nice special edition 3DS (I have a Zelda one) but nothing for the Switch. Maybe that will change with the pro?

Just realised, it's just the shell and buttons - ok if your original controller is ok.

My left shoulder button doesn't work (never has properly...)

Looks fiddly work to install one of those kits. If they did the (much cooler, IMO) UK SNES kit, I'd probably give it a go.
