Dean SwainHOST
I wasn't playing Tetris, but I still like a D-pad.
Dean SwainHOST
But I dunno if you've seen it, 8Bitdo have done a f-, it's called the Flip Pad It's plugs into your USB socket at the bottom of your phone and just folds over, and it gives you more or less Game Boy controls.
Dean SwainHOST
There is another device out that's very similar-
Steve EricksonHOST
Yeah
Paul DespawnHOST
Um, the Anaheim Fiii HyperSpeed, uh, also coming out.
Paul DespawnHOST
8BitDo con- uh, charging dock, which looks cool.
Paul DespawnHOST
This is all of it-
MC FixerHOST
Yeah
MartyHOST
Go to your rooms.
MartyHOST
8BitDo has a controller where you can swap the buttons.
TimHOST
Really? Yes.
TimHOST
You can swap it, the A, B, X, Y buttons for between the Switch or Xbox layouts.
Jan OchoaHOST
...
Jan OchoaHOST
the, uh, 8BitDo arcade controller.
Jan OchoaHOST
Um, this is, like, the hit stick, or f- not hit stick.
Jan OchoaHOST
Um, uh, button.
Jeff GrubbHOST
Hitbox.
Jan OchoaHOST
Hitbox.
Jan OchoaHOST
Hitbox thing, uh, that 8BitDo makes.
Jan OchoaHOST
I have yet to bust it out.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
Um, and there are some good ones out there.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
8BitDo does a great, uh, job.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
Uh, I think it's...
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
Not Scrub.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
And, and there's also Turtle Beach, which I know some people have, uh, used as well.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
So there, there are some good ones out there, but I kind of want to wait for the official one because I know the minute I pull the plug on one of those other ones, that's, that's when they'll actually announce it.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
So I'm gonna give them till Gamescom, but if they don't announce [laughs] something at Gamescom, watch, I'll order like a, a Gamesir or a 8BitDo or something like that like the week later, and then that's when they'll [laughs] announce it.
Fuzzy BelvederePANELIST
But no, I think this is the, the strongest chance that they'll do an announcement for an Elite 3, and I'm, I'm hoping they do so.
AlexHOST
Well, and that's the thing.
AlexHOST
I'm not sure if 8BitDo is doing anything with it, but some of the PDP stuff we've used or the Victrix controllers, they have Xbox-style controllers that they've made for the PlayStation.
AlexHOST
You just have to use the dongle, right? Yeah, I
Ken ReelsHOST
don't.
AlexHOST
So I think we're only a bit away.
AlexHOST
I've seen more and more of the Chinese knockoffs popping up with different shapes of controllers.
AlexHOST
It's only a matter of time until 8BitDo or somebody actually make a licensed one that will just use the tech, like the radio is built in.
AlexHOST
Once that happens, great.
Myke SargentHOST
I didn't realize that things, [laughs] things these days could not cost an arm and a leg and still give us, uh, what we want.
Myke SargentHOST
8BitDo, uh, has a little device called a Flip Pad, and the Flip Pad is a tiny little USB-C, um, game pad that flips up over your phone and lets you play, uh, with a sort of classic handheld experience.
Myke SargentHOST
It is for that kind of, again, vertical, uh, gaming, and you can sort of flip down if you have, you know, interactions that you need to do, then flip back up and it will play again.
Myke SargentHOST
Uh, it's USB-C. There's no Bluetooth to worry about, and of course, the USB-C also powers it.
Myke SargentHOST
So if you're looking for a, uh, sort of, I think, real feel or as close to real feel as possible, a simulated feel experience for old-school mobile gaming, for just 30 bucks, you can get this y- I think, well-made USB-C, um, gaming pad that, uh, I think is just very impressive from 8BitDo.
Myke SargentHOST
And 8BitDo makes a lot of great stuff.
Myke SargentHOST
Um, Anthony Nielsen is a very, uh, is, or is a fan of, of 8BitDo's stuff and was, I think, one of the first people to tell me about it, for sure.
Myke SargentHOST
Uh, in any case, check it out.

GrantHOST
I also ordered one of those 8BitDo...
GrantHOST
They make, uh, PCB conversion kits that you, it's like a drop-in replacement into a GameCube controller.
GrantHOST
You take the PCB out of a GameCube controller, and you put this one in it, and it turns it wireless.
