Nintendo fans reject the Sonic Switch controller design, claiming it ‘can’t handle it’

SONIC the Hedgehog has a difficult relationship with Public Relations.

After an incredible trailer for the first film forced a complete character renovation, Blue Blur took another rough day on Twitter following the release of the new Sonic-themed Nintendo Switch controller.

The controller placed the joystick in a questionable position that corresponds to the eyes as part of the Sonic’s anatomy could be.

Tech blogs like CreativeBloq were the first to point out that the wireless controller has a cheeky design, and more critics have lined up.

The controller is available for pre-order at the standard price of $ 60.

Meanwhile, a very black cable controller from the same brand costs only $ 24.99 for those who want to save.

Although the design flaw was certainly accidental, controller manufacturer Hori still recognized the social media stir.

But it’s not all bad.

Some of the heated criticism has been directed at the brand new Xbox Series S controllers, which are being promoted in tandem with the film.

The Xbox controllers are furry and fluffy, made to represent Sonic and his antagonist Knuckles.

The Limited Edition Controllers are on site in a Sweepstakes contest released by Tweeted Xbox Verified Account.

Sonic’s next adventure will premiere in theaters on April 8, 2022.

With Jim Carrey, who reproaches his role as Dr. Robotnik, and Idris Elba joining the cast as Knuckles, the studio hopes to increase interest in merchandise.

After all, Sonic the Hedgehog was a video game before it became a movie.
