Arthritis can be yours for $25.
Yeah, I could see that for kids or just like in that screenshot, as macro pad.
Even the SN30 Pro was bit too small and uncomfortable for me, and I don’t even have big hands. The 8BitDo Pro 2 on the other hand, is a solid and affordable controller.
I like what 8BitDo has been doing over the years, good quality products under affordable price range, and sometimes quirky / out of the box designs. I do wish they’d make more PS5 compatible controllers, because PS5 is definitely lacking affordable 3rd party controllers.
I’m tempted to get one to use as a “little brother controller”. And just for the absurdity. I’ll wait for some more actual reviews to trickle in first.
My son would love this when he was 3yo. Now he is 7yo where DualSense is a bit too big while the his hori switch wired controller is getting worse.(buttons become a bit sticky) there should be official controllers for the 4-9yo range.
So, what you want is almost any other 8bitdo controller that they sell. They come in a range of sizes.
I did check and does have a target in mind if his current controller not up to the task. But is seems hard to get a ps5 compatible one, so I will just settle with the switch variation.
Their pic of somebody using it for graphic design is something I hadn’t even considered. I’ve seen other artists use JoyCons but these would connect to PC a lot more seamlessly.
These would actually make for a very hilarious tournament of sorts…
half the length of an original NES controller
God damn. If you haven’t held an original NES controller since back in the day when you were a kid, lemme tell you: They are already fucking small. This thing would definitely suck to use unless you are under the age of 10 or have dwarfism (or possibly Donald Trump).
My mouse has 19 buttons.
I just don’t know why they have to go with such weird colors for this and the zero. I’d take black, white, grey, or even an actual red or blue or really any other primary color over these pastel offerings. I have almost no use for one of these but if it was offered in a normal color, I’d order one right away.
Paint or Nail Polish will solve that problem.
IIRC these are the initial colors of the Nintendo Switch Lite. Previously 8bitdo’s controllers were built to look very much like (modernized versions of) Nintendo controllers - like the SN30 Pro and the SF30 Pro looked very much like the SNES/SFC controllers with extra shoulder buttons and analog sticks – but these days they are a bit more careful about potentially infringing on Nintendo’s intellectual property and instead just borrow color schemes.
