Answering YOUR Questions! - MOBAPAD M6 S & HD

[@chrishunter6017]

If anyone wondering. The sticks are almost the exact width of the steam deck. So steam deck stick caps work perfect on these 😁👍

[@mstickmanp]

Thanks for that!

[@Priest015]

Well that's wicked to know!

[@masterrallixus]

width you mean the diameter of the caps right?

[@RealityStone02]

That's nice to know. Which ones would you recommend?

[@slithermods1912]

@oniseb yes its working but if you want to use it dont pair it with the mobapad m6 hd/s instead pair it as joycon. And you will have budget lenovo legion go👍

[@johnnyquijano8243]

Yesterday I received the Mobapads M6 HD and I can say that they are the joycons that Nintendo should have created since the beginning of the console. They are really comfortable, it is a pleasure to press the dpad, the HD vibration really is like the original joy cons. The analogues are very smooth without a dead zone. The iOS app is in English and can create multiple configuration profiles for each game, including one for TOK and Monster Hunter. The L and R buttons have a small gap when pressed compared to the previous M6. However, in the previous ones, having so much sensitivity sometimes put pressure on them involuntarily. Additionally, I bought Lenovo thinkplus GM2 Pro headphones and in gaming mode there are no sound lags, recommended for those interested.

Pro tip on fitting in dock with USB. Buy right angle USB-A adapters that corner them to the backside and you wont have that issue anymore.

[@sonictonic_]

I got mine after the first video on these, had em about a week now, and I LOVE THEM. By far the best joy con I've ever used, I am only disappointed I just got them at the end of the Switch lifecycle LOL

[@martuchna6084]

You mind be able to use them with switch2

[@Chan_Prado]

Thank you for answering our questions! I purchased the Mobapad HDs and absolutely love them. Here's another tip. To clear the back paddles' default L/R shoulder button assignments: Hold down a macro button until it lights up, then tap the corresponding paddle. Do this for both sides. Done! No more stray L & R presses (unless you want to program them again). I saw you do this in your QRD Stellar T3 review and was pleased to see it work with these controllers as well :)

[@ActionJaxonH]

I loved these so much I bought a 2nd pair for my soon incoming modchipped Splatoon 3 Switch OLED. And I ordered M6 S just to have colored faceplates and yellow d-pads to swap with.

[@xiangyang3813]

And now they have faceplates only for a much cheaper price then the whole lot

[@TheTOShow1]

Seriously the M6 HD joycons are so nice. I have larger hands and have tried a few different joycon replacements. These are hands down so comfortable and feel so premium when playing in handheld. Thanks for the videos and reviews of these!

[@rjq3987]

Just bought the M6 HDs as a present to myself after getting my yearly bonus check! Have the NIXY Hyperion Pros but they slide off my Switch way too easily and i am constantly have to resync them while I am playing which is so annoying. Your video showing how they are to slide on and off the rails of the Switch sold me on them! Thanks for the video!

[@macaronin19]

Hey Andy! I bought this after watching your videos. These really are incredible as you said. Pro tip though. If you want to keep it looking clean. I bought skull and co thumbcaps for the pro controller and they fit the mobapad m6 hd just fine and match it’s white color. Cheers! 🎉

[@asturasxd]

Been using them non-stop for 2+ weeks, handheld mode is now SO good! Disappointed it took 7 years for such a controller to come out..

[@MelloKingMal05]

I got regular switch grips and shaved the bottoms down so they can actually grab the thing and it's been perfect for me so far

[@ColdSkull]

Thank you, there are some great answers here! I still have two more: 1. Where can you get replacement joystick heads? Like you said, you can always change them, but I haven't seen any way to get more... 2. I have random LinYuvo joycons with mechanical buttons where you can hear the click BEFORE the button is actuated. It happens when you press the button too lightly. I hope this kind of misinput does not happen with these? I feel that the button should always actuate with or before the click, not after.

[@piotr78]

I have the same question. There are no stick replacements anywhere on their official site/shop as far as I can tell. Also interested in hearing an answer to your second question as that would bug me too!

[@ColdSkull]

@@piotr78 Unfortunately, it seems you cannot get replacement heads anywhere. I tried searching for hours. The only way I can see is to contact Mobapad directly, but I didn't try that one. I decided to use stick caps to protect my Mobapads. And yeah, since I purchased these after my initial comment, I can also verify that the actuation comes at the same time or before the click, so there are no misinputs. Mobapads are great, the only negative for me is that the magnetic shell is not perfectly aligned with the base.

[@ChananunRungphitakchai]

About thumb stick grip. Steam deck or ally size is perfect for me 16:00

[@clydefrosch]

No wiggle will probably fuck up the rails for any other joycon which, eventually, will not just make wiggle worse, but make connection wonky

[@el_dani]

you shall never put any other joycon on your switch, did you get the message?

[@piotr78]

Yeah I did wonder about that after you leave these on for a prolonged time. (Which seems likely if they're really that good!)

[@vastneon]

replace the sticks with what? you can buy spare sticks?

[@romeras600]

I've purchased the Mobapad HD controller because of your review and ever since, I will never go back to any other controller. The mouse style click is a game changer for me. I have a nyxi controller/nori (best buy) and they don't compare at all. I still want to try the hyperion pro for the color and center piece but the HD is superior! I might get a second controller 🤙🏾. Cheers

[@NE_AD]

As someone who used to have the Hyperion Pro and returned them and now owns the M6. Don’t bother with the Hyperion lol there’s no comparison. Hyperion is like a cheap dollar store knockoff

[@romeras600]

@user-lz4rq7fl7q it's confirmed hahahhaha no Hyperion pro for me, thanks. It was mostly for the color

[@Chronoless]

​@@NE_ADSo the M6 is better feeling/comfort than the Hyperion pro?

[@RandyPlezure69]

I had mine for about a month before they started drifting ever so slightly. No big deal, increased the dead zone. But then it started drifting up and to the left. Like hard. Spinning my character in place. Jiggle the joystick and it goes back to normal. It’s now 3 months later and I get about 85% movement from up down left and right. My diagonals show full movement, but moving my stick directly up, down, left, or right all the way, shows only about 85%. Pretty good for joycons. But definitely room for improvement.

[@humouroushawk]

I thought as "hall effect" joysticks there wasnt supposed to be any drift? Was there any way to fix them or is it still an issue? This is the only time ive heard of these having the issue and now im debating on them 😅

[@stevepogue1124]

Do you know when these will be on Amazon? Mobapad's only product that they currently sell on Amazon is their ChiTu controller.

[@teneesh3376]

The main thing you would have to ask between the s and hd. Do you care enough about HD rumble enough for the extra price? Personally, I dont think so. HD rumble is cool for the few games that have it. But it is a massively underutilised feature that it's basically a gimmick now. It can be useful, but devs arent creative enough to use it well

[@PHVSEDOFFICIAL]

Can you make a video of what cases will fit the mobapad m6 HD? I’m trying to find one that will.

[@mariobagnoli536]

Mobapad M6 HD / Joycons wired connection on a Windows 11 PC: In case anyone is interested, I will write down my personal failed experiments/attempts to connect the M6 HD and joycons to a Windows PC via a USB wired connection (without Bluetooth). If anyone knows what am I missing to get the wired connection working , please share it. Please bear in mind that I have not installed any joy-con driver nor attempted to use software mapping. I could follow up on a different message. Shot-out to @ActionJaxonH as his video encouraged me to try it out with the nintendo charging grip. As a mid bridge, I am experimenting with two products: a) NYXI Rechargeable Mid Bridge. (showcased in this video at 2:20) b) Official Nintendo Joy-Con charging grip (Note: you need to disassemble the mount holder for it to fit with the M6 HD) Experiments: Mobapad M6 HD: A) Using NYXI Rechargeable Mid Bridge: Does not work. Windows does not recognize the M6 via USB connection B) Using the Joy-Con charging grip: Windows recognizes both (left/right) mobapads as “Joy-Con charging grip”, however, it does not detect any button press. The lights on the charging grip oscillate up and down in red. Nintendo Switch Joycons: A) Using NYXI Rechargeable Mid Bridge: Does not work. Windows does not recognize the joycons via USB connection B) Using the Joy-Con charging grip: Windows recognizes both (left/right) joycons as “Joy-Con charging grip”. However, Windows thinks all the buttons are constantly being pressed and released. Moving the right thumbstick sometimes triggers a reaction on the “point of view hat”. The lights on the charging grip are solid green. Once again, if anyone knows how to get a direct wire connection between the M6HD or joycons and a windows pc., please share it with the community. All the best

[@JamesFernando1988]

Like a few others have asked, where can you get replacement thumbsticks? Thank you!

I disassembled official joycon charge grip down to middle slab and use that as a Pro Controller grip. But if you're charging from an outlet while using other joycon in handheld it'll constantly disconnect because charging ones keep trying to connect. Just FYI

Does the official joycon charge grip allows you to use either joycons or the Mobapad in a pc via wired usb connection?

Where can we get the app for the Mobapads M6. I love mine and honestly will be returning my CRKD. You were and are 100% correct about your review for these amazing controllers for the switch. You all need to click his link, get yourself a pair and enjoy it. The HD Rumble is amazing and the comfort is what Nintendo should of made originally.

[@louisdellalucca8969]

I hear CRKD is especially stubborn with returns

[@vapingamers]

@@louisdellalucca8969 They might be but Amazon isn't :). I bought it through there so this way I could try it for 30 days and then return it if need be. I like it but the rumble and thumb stick on the right side are just huge turn offs for me. So I am going to return it and then just make sure that I order the case for the moba m6. Totally worth and so much better then CRKD.

[@gabrielhofman6712]

People who have these joy-cons on the Switch OLED, a question: Do they fit well in the console's rails, or do they feel "wobbly"? I bought a LinYuvo and had to return it because the fit was loose, unlike the original joy-cons that fit like a single piece. Thanks a lot!

What mobapad s or HD has less sound abxy clicks?

[@Priest015]

They both use mechanical switches as far as I know, the S just uses an unknown brand whereas the HD use Omron. Either way you're getting clicky. If you want non-clicky I would say go with either the Nitro Deck or the Nyxi Hyperion Pro

Got my Mobapad M6 HDs two days ago. Great except for one problem-the ALPS Linear motors (for vibration) come on at random and oftentimes won’t shut off until I shut off the console (it may just be the right controller but seemed like both a couple times). I’m emailing Mobapad back and forth trying to explain what’s going on and not having much luck at the moment. Hopefully, I’ll get it resolved. I’ll update this when I have some sort of resolution to the problem.

[@128KB]

Did you download the app and update the firmware? My rumble would randomly do 1x vibrate and now and then when the switch was off, after updating the firmware it stopped! Keep us updated and good luck!

[@darkbidding]

Yeah. I have the iOS app (v1.3.1) and it’s says my controllers are using the current version of the firmware (v1.14) and that no firmware update is available. Unless the iOS app doesn’t work properly and can’t fetch new firmware.

Not the best customer service at all. But yeah, I’m good now. Resolved.

[@blacksunshine7485]

Im looking for a set of joycons with a dpad for fighting games for handheld gaming. Its extremely important that im able to 'roll' on the dpad. Rolling is going from one input to another in one motion. Something original joycons cant do because the buttons are separate and too far apart. People that play fighters will understand what i mean. Can you roll on these dpads? Can you pull a hadouken for example? Also can you use nyxi stick replacements? PS4 compatible?

[@Jrstrdr]

I was curious about this also. I saw someone else playing fighting games using these joy cons and it seems to work.

[@blacksunshine7485]

@Jrstrdr I have some now and can confirm that although it is possible to input moves using the dpad, it certainly isn't ideal and couldn't be used other than casually. Each input on the dpad is still a click and doesn't roll. The dpad is made well enough though that a hadouken will register, just not everytime. Ultimately, where there's no denying that these are the best joycons on the market, you're still better off using a separate controller altogether for fighting games.

How’s the stick tension? I prefer firmer sticks compared to loose or sloppy ones. I’m really interested in these for smash bros. Have you had any experience with input delay compared to the standard joycons?

[@NintenPizza]

Ever so slightly looser than the official Pro Controller. The shoulder buttons are a huge disappointment though, especially the awkward sharp ended flat shaped L2 & R2 triggers, while L1 & R1 are on the mushy side. The controller is extremely annoying too since it sounds like a symphony of mouse clicks, especially when a game makes use of the D-pad. I couldn't stand it. How hard is it just replicate the official Pro controller, slice it in half and make it work in handheld mode? The Moba 6 HD's just don't cut the mustard in my eyes. In most ways they're a step up from the Joy-con's, but intrusive mouse clicks firing at all cylinders, crummy shoulder buttons and even the slightly mushy B,A,X,Y buttons are all a step down for me. Joy-cons have lousy shoulder buttons too mind you ;)
