    Damn that looks uncomfortable to hold. Still, interesting device. So far I don’t need retro gaming in portable but it’s a neat idea.

        Yeah.

        And I’ve started avoiding thumb sticks in portables because my old retro controllers with (non-hall effect) thumb sticks now have so much control drift that the D-pad is also unusable.

        (While my retro controllers and systems that just had D-pads are still fine.)

          With something like a Deck you can at least swap them. I feel for more retro oriented stuff I’d prefer some sort of gamepad attachment for phones. If that breaks or wears out at least I don’t have to replace the whole device.
