That doesn’t mean people still don’t love the Nintendo Switch. Nintendo’s latest system was “the best-selling hardware platform in both units and dollars in March “and” in the first quarter, Nintendo Switch was the leader in unit sales, while PlayStation 5 ranked first in hardware dollar sales. “
Sony also led accessory sales with DualSense PS5 controller being the main accessory in sales in dollars for March and the first quarter of 2021.
ICYMI, the latest PS5 firmware update adjusts the report Haptic feedback of the PS5 DualSense controller when playing PS4 games.
“Although all the focus in the last 2 days has been on the new PS5 software update, it seems that Sony has actually slipped in some changes to the controller and its firmware update,” a Redditor recently explained.
“It changed the way DualSense vibrates when you play PS4 games, which has always been significantly weak for some reason. Haptic feedback now more emulates the feel of those DualShock 4 engines.”
PS5 update went live earlier this week, allowing for extended storage for the console and One-Touch Play, which turns on the TV when you turn on the PS5. The update gave players the ability to see the percentage of the controller battery while charging and support 120 Hz for “some” 1080p / 120 Hz PC monitors, allowing 120 fps play. Sony did not mention the adjustments to the DualSense haptic feedback at that time, which is why the players were so confused.
