Default New 3DS c-stick calibration test.

Hey guys, I was wondering well your C-sticks work in calibration tests in a 360 motion?

Certain games like Ironfall and Majora's Mask have built in calibration tests, and I'm just wondering how evenly your c-stick is in that 360 motion. Mine seems to struggle a lot going down, and a little to the right. I've been trying to break it in but I think it might be faulty.

How are yours?

I just tried it, and absolutely no problems, except for the obviousness that the Nub isnt as accurate as the Circle Pad. I kind of like the nub on the N3DS over the analog stick of the Vita. The Vita analog sticks seem to "loose" to me.

Blasphemy.


But mine definitely sucks, so I could hate it a little more than I'm supposed to. I can barely manage to look down in Ironfall, it's basically unplayable.

Would be nice if we could ACTUALLY calibrate the thing, not just test it.

Well, for the CAMERA anyway... If it were a dual stick shooter, then it definitely wouldn't be better than the Vita stick.

EDIT: "than" to "then"

Not had any lasting issues with mine. The biggest problem I've had is dealing with the residue left around the stick when playing for a long time. EVERYTHING MUST BE SPOTLESS!

It does works fine in Ironfall and MM3D though. I've adapted to its feel quite easily.

You guys should try putting on gloves and moving the nub. I heard other materials aside from bare fingers work better with the nub.
