If this persons body is resorting to storing fat in his palms I’m worried about what the rest of them looks like

Could have just linked to people of Walmart.

Is that a prototype of the Bibendum man?

Huh, neat! I was only half serious.

To be fair, those are the worst controllers ever paired with a game console. My hands are smaller than this, but they still hate the controls.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I’ve heard that a lot but I have fairly large hands myself and really like the feel of them. I even have a set of joycons paired to my pc for shortcuts while I work with a stylus. Just don’t get how people have so much trouble with them.

Edit: I guess my thumbs have a stutter, and there’s no sense in a free advert for a service I wish had better alternatives.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I like them when they're off the switch but not when they're on it.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago

Yes. Super comfortable just sitting holding the controllers, but my hands ache if I use them attached to the switch.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

I like using the Switch, but I can’t use it for longer than an hour due to the Joy-Con causing cramps. I’m definitely going to replace them with a third party controller.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Agreed. The triggers are far too small. The buttons are not in intuitive places and they are not very responsive. I try and play for Zelda, but wish I could pair a PS5 controller.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

wish I could pair a PS5 controller.

You can! I use a Mayflash Magic-NS for this. I got a few and plugged them into a USB hub on my dock and my friends have been able to use their own comfortable controllers they use for their pc games on my switch. been a big hit for smash bros. ps4/ps5 controllers support gyro inputs fine too. you can even configure it to switch button orders/layouts and stuff for you so you don't get xbox/nintendo xyab/yxba glyph/button conflicts, if you need. big fan of them overall. they work on other systems and controllers too, you can pair joycons to your PC with it (shows up as Xbox controller), they're like universal "controller language" translators.

Is that a thumb or a turkey drumstick?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Turkey thumbstick?

Thumb drum?

Turkey stick?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

It's a thumb that sticks drums to turkeys.

I can't tell if this pic should be labeled nsfw or not.

absolute sledgehammer hands

[–] [email protected] 25 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I'm honestly concerned he has an untreated medical condition. I don't think even extreme obesity should do this, right?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yeah nah, it's like his hand is very swollen.

There are a lot of medical conditions that can cause that. It's often very painful and limits the movement of the fingers.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago
[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Severe obesity?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Just American.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

More like Ankylosaurus-tail-hammer hands. Their tail hammers were mostly fatty deposits.

escort

bouncer

he goes by many names

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago

Is he playing it with his ass?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago

I thought that hand was someone's ass for a while.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think the hunt is over. We found the monster.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

The real monsters were the friends we made along the way

New hominid species just dropped.

Understated but asbolutely effective lmao

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (4 children)

I don't know why people complain about the Joycons (other than stick drift). They're literally the exact same configuration the DS and 3DS have had since 2005 and everyone loves those systems.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I havent touched my 3DSXL in 2 years cause it hurts my hands to play anything on it for more than 15 minutes, cause its so small and i have to scrunch my hands up so tight to be able to hit buttons.

They make N64 and GameCube compatible controllers for the Switch.

The big problem I have with joycons is my big, meaty hands. Makes it slightly harder for me to comfortably hold those small controllers when they're not connected to the switch itself. I've totally been thinking of just going down to the nearby game shop one day and getting a controller, if I ever get more switch games to make the investment worthwhile.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

This is why I got some grips when I don't have it docked and a pro controller. If you ever do use it more, it's definitely worth it.

Lana is that you?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Check out some of the alternatives on Amazon or pick up the pistol grip attachment. I can't hold the damn things either.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

The pro controller is awesome too.
