Magnets do too
Did you even read the article? This solution also uses magnets but requires smaller magnets, is more sensitive and the response curve is more linear compared to Hall effect sensors. So it’s more accurate than Hall effect sensors, smaller and uses less power.
Ahhh you got me
Just read it but still magnets already do it I’m just saying
My ps1 controler have not gotten stick drift in… how long now? 30 years?
Is that a lost technology like in sci-fi books?
Idk man.
29 years ago this came out.
The traditional controller for PS1 didn’t have joysticks. You needed a DualShock for that, or it’s predecessor the Dual Analog controller.
But yeah year or two here there, the DualShocks and PS controllers after that were very good controllers.
But those first decent ones came out more like at the turn of the millennium than halfway through the 90’s as you imply.
Back then it ps1 without joysticks and from 96 on N64 with extremely shitty joysticks. Gamecube came out in 2001 and Nintendo had clearly learned it’s lesson — to an extent.
My original Dualshocks as well as Dualshocks 2 from back in the day still have no stick drift
I was stoll using the first wireless one as a BT controller to play switch games last year. The battery gave out imo, otherwise zero issues.
I got a Gulikitt KK3 Max and have really liked it so far. I got one because I got tired of having to resynv my Elite 2 to the PC via Bluetooth (it NEVER saved it as a device, some kinda issue I imagine switching from Xbox connection to BT), and I wanted to try to get out of the Elite 2 swap every 7 months. No complaints so far, other than I can’t monitor battery level. I like the back paddles more too, they are more spaced than the Elite.
Hall effect sticks, swappable ABXY mechanical buttons, and the triggers can be mechanical switch with the trigger stops engaged. Really nifty controller.
