About three weeks late I now have Doyoky Gamecube joycons and can compare them directly against the NYXI Wizard! I've also disassembled them to attempt to modify them and failed, and can complain about its internals.
Doyoky Retro uses rubber membrane connections on ALL game buttons except for the paddles and context buttons; +, -, Home, Capture, macro/paddle assign, and L4/R4 paddles are the only buttons that use micro-switches. Improvement over NYXI Wizard which uses micro-switches on the d-pad and shoulder buttons.
Macro and Paddle Assign buttons are the only buttons on the entire controller that rattle when shaken.
Doyoky Retro has that kind of cheap-feeling lightness to it that third-party controllers usually do. It doesn't have the weight of traditional rumble motors, so it doesn't feel as premium as NYXI Wizard does.
All the face buttons and sticks feel almost spot-on compared to a Gamecube OEM! Insane upgrade from NYXI Wizard which feels more like a third-party controller.
The joycon rail piece attached to it out of the box is also a USB-C charging station for joycons and works with pretty much anything that can be put on a joycon rail!
Like the NYXI Wizard, the stick caps are again completely custom. This time, sadly, they're pretty purpose-built for the Doyoky Retro, and OEM Gamecube stick caps (as well as the Gamecube-themed Retroflag drop-in controller) do not fit the Doyoky Retro without severe modification. I'm still working on some way of mounting an OEM's C-stick nub to one of the replacement caps.
The Doyoky Retro has replacement caps! The stick caps' actual thumbsticks are mounted on a hexagonal friction-fit bracket and can be removed. You get a gray C-stick style nub, replacements for both to feel more like a Dualshock 4 or Dualsense controllers' sticks, or a ringed rubber C-stick like the analog.
The interior of the Doyoky Retro is pretty convoluted and stupid on a couple of its controls. A plunger on a spring is mounted to the PCB in a well to hit the micro-switch that controls the paddles, and the plunger itself hits a long post attached to the paddle button. This also makes it a total bitch to close the controller back up without anything falling out.
The joycon rail is custom, and none of its functions are actually on the rail itself, they're on micro-switches on the PCB. This includes the SL and SR buttons. The only piece of electronics on the rail itself is the charge/hard connection rail to a Switch or other charger, and the Bluetooth antenna.
The battery is a small (~1 inch long and wide?) pouch battery that is only held in place by the friction of a foam cushion glued to it, and resting on the interior of the controller and occupying some of the space in the handles. Like the paddle mechanisms, this also has a bad tendency to just flop around and fall out; they should have used double-sided tape to secure it inside the well it occupies on the plastic mold.
Doyoky Retro uses a little button motor for vibration instead of fuller sized motors as in a typical controller. Downgrade from NYXI Wizard.
The controller only tries to connect to Switch when pressing Home on the right joycon and Capture on the left. This is really annoying when every other controller on the market, even other third-parties, will try to connect on any button press!
In summation these are worth the money if you want a Gamecube controller, especially one with accurate buttons and sticks. I think, though, that the perfect Gamecube joycon lies somewhere between here and the NYXI Wizard. Either the Doyoky one needs to be heavier and needs more OEM-accurate sticks (the C-stick nub likely doesn't have a C embossed because they're using the same mold for the optional left-stick nub), or the NYXI Wizard needs to drop the button backlight in favor of OEM-style buttons and adopt the rubber membrane button improvements. The Wizard has better paddles, weight and rumble, the Retro has better buttons, bundle-ins, and d-pad. I can't really recommend one over the other, since in direct comparison both have their caveats that make the other more desirable. Maybe a third company will try their hand at a Gamecube joycon, or one of the two will make improvements?
Additionally, Doyoky made me wait an extra three weeks on my order because they ran into quality-control problems that required an entire batch be taken back to the factory. The order almost made it to fulfillment, and was hurriedly taken back; it required asking customer-support what was going on to actually get any reason on why my order stopped moving, and even then they weren't entirely sure why themselves until some days after I first sent an email. The whole while, it was still listed as an in-stock product. Not a good move.

Took like 3+ hours to get these joy-con shells replaced and I may have also fucked up the ZR button permanently, but outside of that I'd say it was a successful project! ✨

Thank you, and it’s ok… because I at least now have an adorable Umbreon pop socket on my phone, two adorable new joycons, with an Umbreon and Sylveon cover :)

These custom video game earrings are modeled after Nintendo Switch Joycons!
They were a delight to make, and the material shrunk really well!
My second ever order from my shop, I'm really excited to have new projects to make!

Switch Joycon idea from 2017 when we thought they would make unique joycons beyond new colors. I also know now that the refresh rate on e-ink displays wouldn’t be good enough to support gameplay, so just pretend that’s some other cheap alternative.

I'm kinda mad that I spent $50 on this.
Tumblr media
I was browsing my local GameStop and saw they had this neat 9 piece accessory kit full of Joy-Con attachments, and they're like the revival of the Wii remote sports pieces, and I decided to pick it up... not without debating whether or not I really wanted to because it was being priced at $50, about as much as a new game. Man, I miss when even stuff like this used to be way cheaper.

The sword piece is pretty dope tho! It lights up when you swing or shake it! Takes about 2 AAA to work tho.
