People are losing the plot a bit.
The number one reason i hate handhelds is because it always feels like im losing some sort of dexterity/responsiveness because of the ergonomics of it. It just doesn’t feel as good to hold a switch with shitty joycons as it does a pro controller. Or even the stream deck, holding whats essentially just a square with little nubby analog sticks for a long time sucks.
The fact that this is essentially just like picking up an actual dualsense controller with a big ass screen on it makes it far more appealing to me over the other options.
I dont really need it to look good, its not going to be sitting in a shrine of video game hardware on my shelf. The games just need to look good when im playing them
This is the perfect handheld/accessory for sony to launch cause they don’t actually need to actively support it outside of firmware updates. Whatever you can play on your ps5 you can play on this forever
This device being “ugly” reminds me of how people reacted to sony allowing us to install our own SSDs instead of those sexy proprietary memory cards xbox offered. Sometimes the simple and better solution might not be the prettiest.
Give me a dualsense that i already love with a screen, (which makes it easy to switch back and forth from my ps5) rather than some expensive over designed handheld you know they aren’t going to support long term.
