[Leak] Steam Controller Pre-Orders coming soon. Available for $99.
I have a hard time telling myself this is twice as good as the 8bitdo Ultimate 2 that I just paid $50 for...

Steam Controller Priced at $149 CAD
Sorry if this the wrong sub to ask this question, but why even buy the Steam controller if you aren't going to use the touch pads? For me that's the selling point, but if I didn't need the touch pads I would just stick to an 8bitdo ultimate 2, way more affordable and plenty of paddles/buttons.

any good reliable alternatives to the regular nintendo switch pro controller?
8BitDo Ultimate 2C. It's about 30 USD and honestly very good value with Hall effect sticks and button feel. I prefer the D-pad to both the Pro 1 and Pro 2 controllers, if that's something that matters to you.

It’s true, the snapback is definitely worse on the Switch 2 pro controller…
Just use one of the many, far cheaper, far more feature rich alternative options. 8bitdo ultimate 2, gamesir cyclone, etc. Competition has improved drastically since the switch 1 pro controller came out.

Long-Time PC (Keyboard and Mouse) Gamer Struggling HARD With Nintendo Switch Controls
FPS aiming skills doesn't translate to 3D platforming skills at all. Also, you're using the worst kind of controller for that, get a pro controller. 8bitdo Ultimate 2C is great and affordable.

8Bitdo Ultimate Controller Rubber Grip
8Bitdo's official website sells replacement thumbsticks but they can be pretty pricey depending on shipping and country. I'm new to the Ultimate 2C controller so I'm unsure if it'll work but if it's the same as fixing the Pro 2 controller, replacement Dualsense thumbsticks may also be possible and w

The Steam Controller sold out in 30 minutes, utterly breaking Steam in the process
As someone who loved the first Steam controller, and recognizes that even today 11 years later, you still can't buy any controller that has all the same features... it's been a long time coming. I'm very glad I was able to order one. The 8bitdo Ultimate 2 BT comes pretty close, and for a bit cheaper

Joycon Dillema Help a Fellow Gamer
Would suggest a cheaper third-party controller like the 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Bluetooth (which is intended for NS, as opposed to the PC/Xbox-oriented Wireless versions) or the GameSir Nova Lite (the OG should be cheaper than the Lite 2). Just remember to double-check if they have stuff like gyro, or fe
