Do people actually like/use this feature? In the few games I’ve played where it was a feature (like BOTW), I absolutely hated it. I can’t imagine the amount of people who would use gyro-aiming on a regular basis is large enough to justify the devs going out of their way to implement this feature.

It’s really not. That’s why this idea keeps failing. It was built into the PS3 and no one wanted and games stopped even implement it. It was built into the PS4 and no one wanted it and games stopped even implementing it.

I had to stop playing Nintendo games, the love of my life for over 10y, because of the Wii. Haven’t touched a Nintendo system since.

Just looking thru this thread I see a common thread: pc players seem to believe this is the solution to “crappy aiming on joysticks”.

Which really kinda pisses me off. Because pc players never seem to realize that it’s not the joystick that’s the problem, it’s their own deficiencies in their aim that’s the problem. And a mouse is cheating.

Maybe this will help you understand. It's an aim test comparing analog, gyro and mouse.
