It is wild that several of these controllers exist and the manufacturer didn't think to add one or two millimeters slack so that phones would fit snugly in their cases

@@RetroGameCorps I have the iPega Red Knight, and I have exactly this problem with my phone LOL. Ended up buying another telescopic controller. Pretty skeptical of that answer since it's pretty transparent that most of these controllers are plastic, that's literally designed to expand and retract as needed
@jacks559
@jacks559 3 жыл бұрын
the problem with the case is not that it doesn't fit in the controller it's that the physical lightning/usb connector would literally not be able to reach all the way inside the phone due to the cases thickness hence why some thin cases still work. if they made the connector longer then yes it would fit but it would obviously be unstable for the phone when not in a case. i thought this was obvious smh.

@RetroGameCorps

Not even a blip on my radar. I might be 100% accustomed to avoiding the right analog stick since so many of my devices and controllers are set up like this, I just angle my right hand a bit so that the thumb doesn't touch the button. But I have medium-sized hands, so if they have larger hands that could definitely be an issue.

The Backbone is such a comfortable controller, but god the price for the controller and the $50 a year app is nuts. And having to take my phone out of the case every time I want to play was a pain. It also doesn't come with a nice travel case like the Gamesir. Ended up returning the Backbone and keeping the Gamesir even though I really did love the feel in the hand. It just wasn't worth it for the convenience cost.

Yeah, the backbone doesn’t allow cases. But just like the controllers, the case is an optional accessory. And I’ve seen enough ppl around without cases for their phones. The backbone one has a better over all premium feel and you are definitely getting you’re money’s worth. Also you’re going to want to take the case off after a few minutes anyway because of the rapid battery use from overheating. So yeah. Backbone one all the way. 😬✌️

could you update retroarch to 1.9.8 on your ios emulation tutorial guide yeah i know i know you gonna say it doesn’t have the mupen 64 plus next core but guess what i was able to inject mupen 64 plus next core to retroarch 1.9.8 (ios) basically bringing it back to newer version but why didn’t the older version work just fine i hear you ask well 1.9.8 version is newer which also come with newer version of every core inside it which may have bugfix/performance improvements which maybe completely missed from the 1.9.0 (but can’t you just update to the latest core via retroarch so you don’t have to update the retroarch version right? well according to RetroArch developer update core is basically broken and useless on ios) because every retroarch cores had to be signed with apple server during app signing process which didn’t happen when retroarch already installed) this comment is way too long lol but hope you see it!

A good overview of 2 products, but seriously? No mention of the Razer Kishi. No mention of anything from Gamevice, the company the developed it for Razer. Just that flimsy looking $100 (currently, on Amazon) Backbone with its 1¢ clicky buttons. It looks like it would snap in half if you just chucked it into a bag and the middle got stuck under something. Kishi is $70 new and $60 (renewed) on Amazon. I got mine a full year ago as a warehouse deal (BNIB return) for $50 like I do with a lot of stuff. Not a single issue. Unfortunately just like the Backbone, the Kishi also needs the phone to be removed from the case. I have the Kishi for Android as well which is even cheaper and though it's against the point of this video, I actually prefer the latest SN30Pro Xbox edition (for Android) with its included highly adjustable clip holder.

Too bad it doesn't have a Switch emulator, the whole point of paying more for the GameSir on Android is to get the emulator.

Sound effects during the unboxing is very annoying

@RetroGameCorps 3 жыл бұрын
What is annoying, the sound of unboxing? That's in all my videos. I usually lower it by 10db so it's not too obtrusive, but I enjoy the visceral experience of hearing the unboxing. Luckily I speed that part up and often cut out dead space, so it's usually no more than 30 seconds if you'd rather skip it.

I don't understand why these companies don't make customizable options so that you can switch the dpad and analogue stick positions, I know it's possible since there are controllers made that way.
