Hi everyone, I just got my second 8bit Pro 3, it's one of my favorites controllers so I wanted one for my Switch 2, but when I tried to use the shake to wake feature it didn't work, despite having no issues with my first controller.

Then I realized, the gyro wasn't working. The weird thing is that it worked out of the box, but once I updated the firmware it stopped working (one thing to note, the firmware was updated already but I didn't realize). I've been changing firmwares back and forth to get it to work again, but I haven't had any luck.

It sucks because the gyro worked for less than an hour, I don't know what happened. Do you have any suggestions?

I've also been changing modes, because I'm aware that X-input doesn't have gyro, so it's not related to that. Also, the Ultimate Software V2 only lets me update the firmware on X-input for some reason.

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask for your opinions about this.

I'm looking forward to buying a Switch 2, but I was waiting for the rumored battery revision so I could change it easily if it dies. However, with the announced price increase now I'm torn between 2 options: wait for a revision that isn't even confirmed yet and pay 50 dollars more, or just buy one now because I'm impatient and I also save 50 bucks.

The thing is, I really dislike having electronics with a life expectancy on the back of my mind. I recognize this is irrational, because every electronic device dies at some point, especially modern ones, nothing lasts forever and all of that. But it still kinda bugs me, you know?

But it feels to keep waiting for something like that. Also I'm aware that you can replace the battery but it's a long list of steps that I'm too scared to do, I can build computers but even doing that (which is kinda simple in comparison) makes me really anxious and I really hate it.

What would you do? Should I care about this or am I overthinking things (I usually do)?

How long do you think the battery will last? I'm mainly looking forward to using it in docked mode, so the battery not lasting as long as it did before is not my concern. My concern is the switch not turning on.

I'm also aware that if I don't want to do the whole battery replacement process, I can pay someone to do that, so it might not be a problem.

Any suggestions, opinions and ideas are welcome!

Hi everyone, I've been trying to platinum Megabonk but I found myself stuck trying to get the 300.000 kills achievements. My highscore is 290.000 (yeah, wasn't happy about that lmao).

I don't know if it's a mental block or something, but when trying to go for runs now I always die to regular swarms and I struggle to kill multiple enemies.

The build I go for is Fox with 3 weapon slots: Fire Rod, Katana and Shotgun

And the tomes I use are XP, Cursed, Chaos and Damage.

My toggles are the usual meta ones I've seen around here, I don't think that is the issue.

I think the issue is that I suck lmao, any tips on staying alive and actually being able to kill enemies before they get to me?

Thanks in advance friends!
