methods of input (Part 1)

per at least one reddit post I can find, the only problem is a bit of snugness iwht the USB port, but I can probably shave that down if I need to. It’s good because the one trigger already stopped working on the retrobit one.

pretty sure those are 24mm buttons and not 30mm, if anyone wanted to replace them.

Does a vertical arcade stick exist? My oldman wrist cannot take pressing buttons on a regular stick anymore. Everyday I feel more and more like I need to learn to solder to create the ultimate monster stick.

I am not aware of one but lord do I want to make one. The simplest design would be a hitbox that tents so you’re holding your hands neutral “handshake”, yeah? Sticks would be trickier.

In a similar concept, I want to get this stick:

He’s making a version with a Saturn-style 8way dpad that I want to get whenever he goes into full production for it:

the only thing I don’t like about this is that it seems to be “one device, plus an xbox” instead of “two devices”

My hope is that it’s one BT and one 2.4ghz but yeah, it’d be better suited as an all-purpose pad if it did better BT pairings.
