Introducing the Latest Gamepad with Gyro and Capacitive Contact for Steam Deck

Having the ability to set issues in regards to the triggers (do not know if that is additionally potential in Steam with xinput controllers, however no matter)

The standard issues that different controllers supply: extra buttons to alter (again, entrance).

What I am actually enthusiastic about, one thing that nothing else has however the steam deck itself (and one thing that may’t be executed with xinput controllers):
– gyro, along side capacitive contact on the joysticks.

I perceive that folks miss rumble, however I by no means felt prefer it added something, and at all times turned it off.

This gamepad has a change to be xinput so it imitates a typical Xbox controller (together with its parameters), or Steam enter after which might be freely modified by Steam with its -everything additional.
I consider there’s additionally an app that permits you to tweak the xinput mode a bit extra (like turbo buttons or hair triggers).

The xinput technique (of this one) is wired solely, which is a bit bizarre. Apparently it comes with a dongle, you might need executed one thing with that. (8bitdo has a number of controllers with dongles, after which you’ll be able to select what that dongle stories. Within the Nintendo Professional controller change, however in PC xinput controller. The ultimate controller has a dongle after which you’ll be able to buttons button to make use of on the gamepad select whether or not it’s meant to be a Nintendo controller (gyro, however digital triggers) or an xinput controller (no gyro, simply analog triggers).

Now take into account this to be sincere:
The issue I actually have is that the one use case for gaming with a controller is after I play on the TV. And that often goes to my PC by Moonlight. So it is the TV that wants gamepad assist, and it in all probability would not perceive the SteamInput stage. I can dock a steam deck as a Moonlight shopper, however that looks like an excessive amount of hassle.

If I am taking part in with my nostril in entrance of my laptop computer or desktop, I by no means use a gamepad (not less than for shooters the place the gyro is a factor).

So I am positively enthusiastic about one thing that lastly places capacitive contact on the joysticks, identical to the steam deck. Just for my TV use case state of affairs it will not work, and with solely wired xinput there are higher circuits available on the market. However you would possibly get one on your journey bag.
