I like what they did with the right stick.
ReplyDeleteHmm... it's pretty cheap though I wonder how much the price will be tanked for shipping. Hopefully this isn't an exclusive because if it isn't I will wait to see it sold more locally.
ReplyDeleteThe D-Pad and right analog stick are placed in...interesting positions. Ones I don't think I'd particularly like.
ReplyDeleteI guess what I'm most curious about is what the quality of the D-Pad will be. The Xbox One's normal D-Pad is awful, but since this controller is being built for a 2.5D platformer specifically, I would hope this one will be better.
Aww.... would've liked to have one but it seems like they only ship within the US. Oh well....
ReplyDeleteDon't use Hyperkin's website - their shipping prices are outrageous. If you have a local GameStop choose "ship to store" and pick it up in person to save a wad of dough.
ReplyDeletethat's beautiful. too bad it's not wireless
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting this controller (the original release) for a while now, but the prices in Europe are insane. I doubt this release will be available through normal means either.
ReplyDeleteI would 100% buy one designed for Ps4 or Switch. Being Xbox only is lame.
ReplyDeleteShould've taken the effort to swap the d-pad and analog stick
ReplyDeleteI hope this ends up working on the switch
ReplyDeleteHyperkin. It's 9 feet of Mega Man - for them, NOT YOU!
ReplyDeleteWell, there's little over a month left until Mega Man 11 releases, and we still don't know the identities of DWN-084, DWN-085, DWN-087, and DWN-088 (I'm still shocked that Capcom chose to skip over the first two with Torch Man's reveal). Also, we haven't seen the mine stage at all since the 2017 30th Anniversary stream.
