No the quote says the second meaning the right.
why would they do this
mineās been dispatched
Same! Wow Wow!
Dang I probably ordered mine like twelve hours too late 
If only I had like a dozen other ways to play Super Mario Worldā¦dangā¦
Still really looking forward to this thing!
Oh wait, shipment notification received. Heck yeah.

Somebody on the retroid subreddit said that they were told there was a problem with a batch of indigo units and those might end up going out later, which is a bummmmerrrr. Especially now that Iām seeing a bunch of people who ordered around when I (/a lot of us here, I think?) did getting their shipping notifications.
So the right analog stick is 1) separate from the d pad and 2) digital but with what looks like 2 levels of activation in each of eight directions (plus no activation in the center position).
So at least it simulates an analog stick.
I wonder if this will be good enough to play ape escape?
Reiterating: in the Retroid OS the left analog stick and left d-pad are mapped to the same inputs. But not in Android. I say right up in my previous post but this was an unfortunately confusing mistake.

hm, not seeing that in the video. looks like a straight up 8-way digital input mapped to a thumbstick
He doesnāt do a good job of demonstrating it but if you look I believe it has 2 activation levels.
watching the video frame-by-frame i still fail to see anything other than 8 positions+neutral for the second stick. what am i missing?
unless thereās something that is straight up not shown in the video this is all you get

Hm - I may have been mislead by the fact that the diagonals cross the circle but the cardinals donāt. Fucked by the square root of 2 once again.

thatās pretty disappointing but yeah given retro consoles mostly: have no sticks, n64: has one stick, dreamcast: has one stick, and you can probably map n64 c-buttons to it like on gamecube, itās not the worst thing in the world.
as mentioned earlier, ape escape will be the main questionable thing

Iām delaying mine a day via DHL so Iām actually home to sign for it, but it should be here Tuesday.
What the heck! My tracking has not worked at all. Hmmphh.
Yeah, I brought up Taki Udonās shady, bullshit shilling up a few times in my thread about handheld emulation devices.

Now Iām kinda bummed that I wonāt be home to sign for this thing til Tuesday, because Iām pretty sure this thing will be in Texas likeā¦today.
Iām considering cancelling my order and getting an RG350 instead. Thoughts?
