So, a lot of players, including myself, seem to experience input lag when using Gamecube controllers or Pro controllers. Here's a summary of the situation :
It could be your TV :
Some people changed the tv settings to "Gamemode", and it fixed the issue.
It could be your USB port :
Some people connected the black usb port of the gamecube adapter on the USB 3 port of the switch, on the back of the dock, and it fixed the issue.
It could be your stick sensitivity :
Some people changed their stick sensitivity to "high" in the options, and they say it fixed the issue. However, I think it does not fix the problem in itself, it just makes it less obvious.
It could be your Switch
Some people just turned off their switch completely, and turned it back on, and they say it fixed the issue.
----> I tried all of the above, and it DID NOT fix the issue. And I'm far from being the only one.
This is NOT placebo : when using Joycons, the game is waaaay quicker to respond, and I feel like I'm playing the real gameplay experience of the game.
When I'm using Gamecube controllers, dashdancing is difficult, I miss most of my timings, fastfalling feels off... It's just a world apart.
The main theory is the day 1 patch messed up with the controllers one way or an other, since no players complained about it before the game came out.
My own experience validate this theory, since I played the game a little while offline without having made the day 1 patch and everything felt right. However, once I did the patch, the controls started to feel off. I didn't really know why at first, and didn't really think much of it, but after a while playing I had to come to the conclusion that it was input lag.
I'd like you to say on this thread if you're experiencing the same issue, and if you tried the solutions that I give above. This is the only way we can understand where the issue is coming from. It seems to affect a lot of people, and this is not acceptable. Specially for a game that literally is about timing.
If we can't find a way to solve this, Nintendo NEEDS to hear about this. This could ruin the game experience of thousands of players, and this could be a huge blow to the competitive scene.
