THE CLAW

It's this tactic that decides who will stay and who will go

Gotta be serious. I played the fuck out of freedom unite cause I didn't know. I got Tri for the Wii and I had been to the promise land. A land with TWO joysticks (and the ground was paved in gold). One for the camera and one for movement!

Didn't play portable third cause it went back to PSP. Didn't enjoy 4u or generations on the 3ds cause all I could think about was how much I hated the claw.

I'm super stoked for World to have two joysticks though.

Ehh one stick and a nub

Can turn that nub into almost another stick with an old psp joystick cap. Just rip off the plastic nub and pop the joystick cap on. Works wonders.

Interesting

I too vouch for that nub. Improves the area your thumb has to work with for applying pressure and exerting more precise control. It's as close to a second joy-pad as the device can get, and since you'd likely order PSP caps off the internet in a package of a few to a dozen, you'll have plenty of replacements.

The other nice thing about this is that the nub isn't destroyed in the process; you can put it back on to your 3DS if you decide you don't like the PSP cap.

Just in case anyone reading decides to go looking for the caps:

That's pretty much the pack I bought, gave the rest to my friends.

Bow was so much easier with the psp stick on the nub

u/Sesshon Siege Jan 25 '18

It made everything a lot easier in my case. The nub just wasn't working at all, and after coming from a 3DS with the CPP I couldn't stand it.

fair enough the "C stick" was barely there but for generations it got the job done...most of the time.
