that button arrangement is unfortunate

What do you mean? That’s the same layout as the SNES controller, & it’s what most of the retro handhelds use.

Also, it’s running Linux so it’s easy to remap the buttons to a custom layout if desired.

their buttons are askew from how your thumb reaches them on an SNES controller. it’s completely awkward

Also, miss me with the Linux preaching; it’s like background noise at this point 😂

Your brain is askew.

No need to be insulting. The design is clearly flawed.

I don’t think I heard such complaint from any Game Boy owning kid in the 90s.

Banichan@dormi.zone on 17 Aug 2024 05:53 collapse

Gameboy wasn’t trying to cram SNES button layout onto their device at the wrong angle 😂

Why the downvotes? Look at that picture. The buttons are askew

A few years ago I found this case interesting but by now there are so many awesome (mostly anbernic) devices to do this better. Currently using the rg arc with its awesome ergonomics.

I can feel my hand cramping just looking at this.

I have a version with dock and absolutely love it. I can play on the go or connect it to a big screen and my favourite controller if I’m at home.

Loved this version, and it had the better soundtrack too.
