NYXI Wizard Wireless Joy-Pad for Nintendo Switch brings interchangeable joysticks and a split pad design

Switch to purple

Spice up your switch life. The GameCube-inspired Wizard Wireless Joy-Pad from NYXI for the Nintendo Switch has an ergonomic design for more comfortable gameplay sessions. It features a signature purple colour scheme, interchangeable joysticks that are drift-resistant and a split pad that can be used as both a standard gamepad as well as a pair of Joy-Cons.

With a brand-new split gamepad experience, the team at NYXI gaming is now stepping into the game to challenge Hori, who currently holds the reign. Even though it doesn't exactly have a catchy name, the NYXI Wizard Wireless Joy-Pad has all the throwback elements from the early 2000s you could ask for while also incorporating contemporary functions.

It packs on a 500mAh battery that can be recharged over USB-C, giving you about 8.5 hours of gameplay over Bluetooth. Aside from its sleek design, which will no doubt delight some Super Smash Bros. fans, it also has a few other cutting-edge capabilities that directly compete with Nintendo's biggest mistake in the Joy-Con. In order to combat the official gamepads' infamous tendency to acquire joystick drift over time, NYXI has developed a Hall Effect joystick component that offers a unique approach to preventing wear and tear like its analogue counterparts.

Additionally, the company is providing D-Pads, spherical joystick circles for racing games, replaceable modules that enable you swap out the stock ones for newer ones, and more in case drift should somehow occur. The new NYXI Wizard Wireless Joy-Pad is now accessible for pre-order on the business's website. The device should retail for about £58 (approximately ₹6,000) and will be available in the UK as of now.
