    I have arthritis in my thumbs and find it difficult to play anything action-oriented with thumbsticks, an all button controller like this might let me play stuff like Super Smash Brothers again. Thanks for showing this off, I didn't realize there were options like this out there.

      There's a TON. Also, consider checking out the Xbox Adaptive controller coupled with a Mayflash adapter, or the Hori Flex controller for Nintendo Switch.

      Specifically for Smash I would recommend looking into the Frame1 controller! It has buttons to emulate the right stick (and I believe it has a modifier button that allows you to angle the left stick in more than 8 directions).

    • @Bakanineinstein
      @Bakanineinstein 3 роки тому +7

      There's also the "Smashbox" made by the same people who do the Hitbox...
      Like the Hitbox it's a little oversized being an all button arcade layout controller... But from the sound of it, it might be exactly what you are looking for...

    • @rustkitty
      @rustkitty 2 роки тому +2

      I don't think you can expect any sales. They are using the Brook UFB mainboard which is a hundred bucks alone, then comes the bill of materials for the rest of the hardware, labor & administrative costs. Looks like they aren't working with a huge profit margin where they can afford discounts at all. Look at their older pads, if you order them with PCB included and pre-built they come up slightly more expensive.

    • @ElbowDropMO
      @ElbowDropMO 2 роки тому

      $200 ($220 now due to part availability issues) is on the lower end compared to the full-size ones. It's definitely an investment and if you can find a way to try an all-button controller or a Hitbox (I actually tried a Snackbox Micro at a convention's Guilty Gear Strive tournament and am now onboard to saving for one). Just saying compared to other all-button controllers it's about the best you'll do price-wise. And I'd probably rather have one of these than a bulky Hitbox.

  • @fightgeist5669

    I have one and can highly recommend it for fighting games and anything else that doesn’t need both sticks! You can also get an additional metal plate for the bottom to make it feel more substantial, and they have a ton of color options available for their buttons on their shop.
    (Rumor is they’re also making a smash box style controller with this thin form factor 👀)
