That's a faulty switch rather than a faulty joycon.

bah got it all bloody set up too! Well hope smyths got more stock then as the one I got was last one

Thinking it can't be switch now, in handheld mode both joy con's work zero issue, put it into table top mode and only used right joy con on its own which gave the issues and it worked fine for 20 laps without fault.

Could interfence when offline mp be a cause?

It's caused by a dodgy communications chip inside the switch. You will probably find that your WiFi signal is poor too. I made a big post about it last year.

My left (blue) joycon has crap range. Literally if I’m sat down with it, and I hunch over while playing, it gets really spotty connection

If you have any problems with mk8 digital on your replacement Switch, call Nintendo and they should sort it for you.

No issues just set up the new one and it's re downloading fine, not tested it yet in game to see if issue occurs again, I hope not as that be very unlucky!

Played Smash handheld last night for the first time in well....years. And my god I got rusty. I lost to a Lvl 5 Pickahu

But I blame joy cons. Trying again tonight, docked, with pro controller. Poor workman and all that

Felt AMAZING to play a Smash again.

Smash looks great. Haven't owned a Nintendo console since the SNES. Happy to wait though for the switch refresh. What are we looking at - mid 2019?

Phate · 18 Dec 2018 at 14:00

Nobody knows. And besides its just rumours. If you want to play one just buy it.

You never know with Nintendo. Personally I'd buy one now and then sell it if you want the new one.

Is smash online fixed yet? Still haven't unwrapped my copy since last week, must be getting old!

If you set your MTU to 1500 I have found private matches to be much better after the recent patch. It's hit and miss against randoms as many people are using wireless and not increasing their MTU.

Probably 60-70% of my matches are good enough for me to punish blocked moves on reaction. They also made it so that you get 1v1 if you ask for one now.

Are the fighting commands in smash like other fighters? Mk/sf? Or much simplified and it's more about timing/ positioning?

Also a pro controller essential to be competitive?

They're much more complicated than SF, but easy enough so that anyone can get into it.

I play in handheld or with the Pro controller without much difference.

Oh really ? :eek:

I was competitive to a degree with mk but eventually couldn't keep up with the speed of the better players.

Do you tend to play on tv or small screen?
