PlayStation layout needs PS buttons as an option in the swappable buttons! 🍻

I got one of these a couple days ago and I like it a lot. Admittedly I'm upgrading from a rather old SN30 Pro, so to be honest I'm just happy about having proper grips instead of the weird SNES form factor, but so far it feels good. The TMR joysticks feel really great. Comfortable to hold even with my long fingers. The Start and Select buttons are placed a bit awkwardly, so I ended up using C2 and C3 since they're a bit easier to reach. My only real complaints are that it seems a bit heavy (though I don't have similar controllers to compare it to so it might be normal) and I'm worried the motor for button swapping might wear out some day, because for some reason when I put it on the dock to charge, it swaps the buttons to Nintendo mode, and swaps them back when I pick it up again.

If the Dpad doesn't input diangles correctly for jumping in fighting games is not worth it. So many controllers fail in that point...like the Nyxi Wizard. It is horrible for fighting.
@J0rdan912Ай бұрын
It's totally fine with diagonal inputs, it's just not as good as some membrane+pivot dpads or analog/arcade sticks. Totally normal behavior for tact switches, which is very accurate and comfortable to play if you're okay with this type of dpads.
@alfredoalbert7032Ай бұрын
@@J0rdan912 for fighting games I love the Dpad of the Mobapad Chitu HD, is perfect for diangles and fighting games. Do you think that the Gamesir Tarantula has the same touch for fighting games? I tried the Dpad of the Nyxi Wizard that is tactile and is horrible; you always end pushing a non desired input when playing fighting games at the point that the character is always crouching for example.
@J0rdan912Ай бұрын
@@alfredoalbert7032 I'm still waiting delivery. But from initial reviews it looks like it's a high-quality dpad and the same one, similar to Xbox-like clicky dpads with tact switches, just cross shaped instead of circle. If you have Chitu, you can try both circle and cross shaped dpads, from my other controllers like 8bitdo or Flydigi I can say that circle shape + tact switches are better for fighting games, but on the other hand PS4 and PS5 controllers are perfectly fine with their cross + membranes. So it's strictly personal.

Okay, looks like that's gonna be my new Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, because my current one (8Bit Do Ultimate Wireless Controller) also gets used with my gaming laptop as an "Xbox Controller" and the Switch labelling on the buttons drives me bonkers! This solves that problem quite nicely, while adding extra Switch functions! 😎 EDIT: Thank you for the 10% Off Promo Code! Here in the States, the controller with the charging stand/dongle extender is currently $79.99, and that code takes $8.00 off! 😎
@TheOriginalJackTChanceАй бұрын
Okay, I ordered this, tried it out, and I've got to be honest: Even though I wanted a controller that I could use both as a Switch Pro Controller and a PC/Xbox Controller, where it can have BOTH button layouts, after trying it, I am NOT the target customer for this controller, and it's not for me for one simple reason -- It's a PLAYSTATION DUAL SHOCK STYLE CONTROLLER for use with Nintendo Switch, PC, and Xbox. As someone that's been using only Xbox/Switch Pro style controllers since 2007 when I bought my Xbox 360, my brain is having too hard a time adjusting back to the PlayStation controls layout. 😒 So, bottom line, IF you're a gamer whose go-to controllers are the PlayStation Dual Shock/Dual Sense or 3rd Party equivalent, if that's your favorite controllers, and all you use, you're going to love this controller. But if, like me, you long ago switched over to Xbox/Switch Pro style controllers and that's your go-to, you're not likely to be happy with this one. All of which begs the question: Why did Gamesir make this Switch/Xbox/PC controller in the style of a PlayStation controller to begin with? Why didn't they just make it an Xbox/Switch Pro style controller? And who do we have to kill to get them to do just that -- make a controller with (most) of these features, including the convertible buttons, in the Xbox/Switch Pro shape and layout? 🤔 Unfortunately, I'm thinking this one's going back to Amazon for me. But as always, Your Mileage May Vary.

@chachock6728Ай бұрын
i haven't tried this one yet so i'm not exactly sure, but usually with controllers like this, there's an xinput mode that has all the regular buttons (xyab, lt/rt, and lb/rb) and analogue triggers but no gyro. and then there's a switch mode with the same buttons AND gyro, but digital triggers instead of analogue. and then all the extra buttons are just mappable to either other buttons on the controller in most of them, while some have a software that lets you map it to other things but they usually still arent recognized in steaminput.

The controller is riddled with bugs…. First of all the paddles only work every other time you press them, the controller will perform functions without you pressing buttons, the controller doesn’t work on any gamesir app (but I hear they’re working on that). I mean the idea is great but the controller itself has ALOT of issues. I bought one from Amazon and sent it in for a replacement and the replacement had the exact same issues… unfortunate
