Series X controller has one of the best d-pads ever made IMO. Pretty remarkable what’s possible in the unlikely event that a big-budget manufacturer especially focuses on the dpad as their improvement point for a generation.
Ok, sold. This has been holding up my Dark Souls 3 progress so you know, emergency situation
Xboner here, seconding
Of course the next step for these touch screen controls layout pads would be to make one in a phone-shaped form factor.
Are those 3DS-style slide pads?
I’m assuming they must be, but since that this thing is listed as out of stock everywhere, I’m not even convinced it actually hit production. This render could be way off.
oh it definitely did https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=mocute+055
Hot damn, no shoulder buttons feels like a major misstep.
shoulder buttons cause me the greatest amount of pain in any peripheral, I prefer pads and keyboard style layouts that have everything on one face
this was i think the first if not one of the first variants that wasn’t just a dualshock/xbox derivative – the elite-style extended pad with more (and movable) buttons, the arcade deck style device and the swappable faceplate controller are later products
…how are you supposed to aim your skillshots with this on?
you can’t, just gotta let the autotargetting do it’s thing. the later variants i’ve posted about ‘fix’ this.
Waiting to hear a cuba review.
It didn’t come with a cable and my computer doesn’t have bluetooth so review pending
curious if anybody here has had the Series controller bumpers break the same way the One/Elite controllers were known to, never had that happen myself but it does seem like they’re significantly reworked
mine has held up impeccably, shame the Elite 2 really didn’t justify its price in the end
sorry about the cable situation cubes, didn’t realize, I have too many USB-C cables lying around already
are you sure it wasn’t in a part of the box that was like, obscured by folded cardboard? I had to explain that to my wife recently when she almost threw a cable out
It’s ok I just spent 6 bucks on Amazon
the maintainer of the Guncon 2 Linux driver has actually picked it back up and it’s compiling, which means if I feel like wasting a Saturday and figuring out how to reproducibly use modprobe in raspbian, I can probably get point blank working on my CRT retropie setup
this feels like a pretty bad outlier in terms of how rewarding it would be to shave this yak. I’m considering it.
How does that get around the latency factor?
At no point in this post did I feel like I could anticipate the next word in a sentence
