HORI Mini PS4 Controller Review - Rerez

So I personally bought this controller for a backup controller for when my normal controller died/when I wanna co-op, and honestly it’s been fine. The most problems I actually have with the controller is because of its size but that’s because I have big hands. Other than that I’ve had no problems playing most the games I have in my collection. It might just be me but I personally like to use this controller

[@melissacorrea8732]

yeah just use flex seal o the sticks

[@موسى_7]

So this controller good for playing multilayer games, right? Should I buy this for multilayer games to play with my family like Tricky Towers or Skylanders? Is it useful for COD MWR split-screen (probably not but who knows).

[@موسى_7]

Is it hard to use the bumpers (r1 l1) and triggers (r2 l2) together?

[@boodybest9280]

I felt comfortable with DS3 on ps3 than DS4 in ps4 ( in FPS games ) because it was smaller even though I have big hands , so should I get this one ?

[@Zeromaru42]

I bought this for my younger cousins to play Fighting Games with me it works pretty well for them because it's way simpler. I've had a couple of issues with durability of the cord but it works perfectly fine as a backup controller. It's also the one I give to them in case they throw it. Had it for a year and it hasn't broken yet it was also only 20 bucks at walmart as opposed to 40 or 50 for a first party.

[@D0NU75]

made for kids, the same kids that grip, handle and work with tablets and cellphones with no problems

[@BLY99]

The normal DS4 is way too big for most kids under 7.

[@Trimint123]

Exactly what BoLoYu said. Dualshock 4 is bigger for adult hands.

[@GatorRay]

Thing is those things are rectangular or square and not round. Which makes them easier to hold IMHO.

[@ChoboUnjeon]

That looks kinda uncomfortable since games on the phone only have controls at the edge of the screen, not all over the screen. That hybrid between the NES controller and the DS4 though, it's got buttons all over the place and it doesn't have handles

[@rrteppo]

As a kid I destroyed a lot of stuff. It wasn't on accident either. You would get mad in 2 player games and someone would end up throwing a controller into the ground in frustration.

[@GorrillaVision]

the majority of PS4 games do not use the motion controls or the extra touchpad functions

[@saysbadman]

But to omit a genre like racing games for lack of analog triggers is unforgivable. Slippery plastics joysticks are also a drawback. Too many pitfalls to consider this controller. Hori's switch controller is nice enough though.

The triggers on this controller ARE analog, they just work like the PS2's face buttons, which is... odd. I personally really like this controller. The D-pad is squishy, but it's not unresponsive, so it works really well with retro styled games. Heck, I have more fun with this thing when I'm using it for PC and Switch (through a MayFlash adapter).

[@Not-Great-at-Gaming]

[@KitsuneJimmy]

I have this controller. Actually bought it for myself (26 y/o) and it is far from a bad controller. Yes it is missing features, but have you tried using it in 2D platformers or fighting games? Works pretty well. It's my goto for Rayman Legends. I mostly got the controller for my computer but i use it more on PS4. (The "triggers" annoy me on computer just because they are programmed as analog and are semi-pressure sensitive, for some reason)

I bought one of these yesterday for £10 and it's fantastic. I actually prefer it over the original PS4 controller. It fits so well in my hand, the buttons actually feel more responsive than the original controller, with nice click to it. The thumbsticks have some satisfying feedback too. If you push them and let go, they really snap back into place. I honestly don't see anything wrong with the controller, besides the touchpad. Which at this point, hardly any game even uses. This review feels awfully bitter for no reason, I think hori made another quality controller.

"Before we start, Hori isn't a bad company" I can see where this is going already 😂

[@WhoWatchesVideos]

Yeah, HORI tends to be hit or miss. Stuff they make is either pretty darn good or really crap. Also, the touchpad problem is because Infamous: Second Son probably uses a touchpad _touch_ input but the touchpad button near the top of the controller is for when a game requires the button under the touchpad. The TP button is for touch inputs and Second Son probably wants you to hold your finger on the touchpad for a certain period of time to get you out of the water.

[@garu629]

I have this controller and I use it with my Raspberry Pi running RecalBox. I have enjoyed using it. I don't have large hands, so for me the size is indeed smaller, but still comfortable. Honestly, if you can use a SNES or NES controller, it's not any smaller than that. For what I've been using it for, it's been great for me. I can understand why this controller might not be good for many modern Playstation games. But having the additional buttons on this controller worked really well for me with my Pi. Also I was able to get it pretty cheap. So again, this might not be good for everyone, but for me and for what I've been using it for, it's been great.

[@DoomRater]

If I had gotten this at 8 I would have had it returned. The point of a controller is to play games and it can't do that because it's missing key features needed to play PS4 games! Age literally has nothing to do with it. Kids are not inferior gamers and I feel bad for you if you actually think otherwise.

[@Vocaloid-English]

An 8 year-old isn't going to care about analog controls to shave half a second off their pb in (insert racing game here) or hairtrigger response times in (insert fps here). They're going to be having fun playing (insert kiddy game here) because they're 8 using a controller their parents can actually afford. Not everyone can spend $80 every time they want a new controller cause the kid broke it or spilled pop on it. $40 is a great price for a controller for a child, especially with the rugged build quality that was actually praised in this video. Oh what, infamous doesn't work? Oh no the horror. My kid can't play a buggy launch title that based itself entirely on gimmicks.... and is M rated. Go play some kid games with the controller *CLEARLY* marketed towards a kid with idk.... a kid and then come back and give me a review.

[@LepidopteranLiliumoth]

>Le Meme Arrows outside of 4chanit

[@shadeymcbones6707]

not really an excuse, if there are better controllers on the market for the same price. Sure they wont work on a ps4 but that shouldn't matter when it comes to quality

[@Vocaloid-English]

Yeah sure let me just buy my kid a $5 NES controller so he can play PS4 games. Cause that's totally how it works. This isn't being judged as a controller. It's being judged as a *PS4* controller. The two main gripes are the lack of analog triggers (a predominately PS4 feature) as well as a convoluted trackpad (a PS4 exclusive feature). Take the need for those two things out and what do you have? a 30 second video. So yes, it being a controller for use on the PS4 does matter.

[@epicjuicebox]

I bought one for a kid to use on a Raspberry Pi / RetroPie. Most of its PS4 related shortcomings don't apply there. Except for those damn slippy thimbsticks! So I added those aftermarket rubber clip on things, and they made a huge difference! The thumbsticks feel great. They're nice and grippy, and have a surprisingly smooth action. It's actually very satisfying to use, now. Totally transformed the litlle thing into something quite pleasant and very usable for the purpose. And the form factor is ideal for those retro systems we're emulating on EmulationStation. It may not be the best PS4 conroller, but it's great for what I'm using it for.

You just decided to hate it from the start. It works fantasticly, and at 30 euro's it's so much cheaper than a official dual shock 4, that it is a very smart buy for kids who tent to wear down controllers a little faster. It's basically exactly what it promises to be, at a good price, so it's an excellent product. Maybe not for you, but that doesn't make it bad.

This is a good controller , your not even playing games meant for children. I bought this for my son and he loves it. I totally understand that the L2&R2 aren’t analog or the motion action are gone , it’s because to save space &money . If your gonna play Teen & Mature games which requires those features, you darn screwed up because this is meant for kids, even the box shows kids playing with this. Daddy has the DS4 and his son has the Hori Mini. You missed the mark by a million years with this video and no brownie points for you. not your fault that you didn’t understand what it was meant to be used by, next time play kid games with kid products, you might as well play street fighter v with a racing wheel controller, get what I mean?

[@wesleybcrowen]

From what alternate universe, where HORI makes cheap crap, did this drop from?

[@SianaGearz]

I don't know, most cross-platform titles aren't tightly bound to any Playstation specific features such as touch and motion, nor even to analogue triggers. The usual grips however are a major issue, they cause RSI when trying to reach thumb sticks if your hands are too small - the consoles that did this right are GameCube and Dreamcast, with less meaty wings or placement closer to edge. I think this has a use. The thumbstick isn't rubberised out of fear that the rubber would fall off or decay like on so many controllers or because the necessary double-shot TPU-ABS is a special process that is among the most expensive and difficult to get right when it comes to custom parts. The middle buttons are rubber because they're part of the switch like in TV remote controls, so it's a cost cutting measure for controls that are used infrequently and don't have to be the most responsive.

[@cameronwilkson2982]

Maybe the pads on the joysticks were removed because they were afraid small children would chew on them?

I love that you always review unusual controllers. I enjoy the oddities companies come out with for consoles. And not to hate on Hori, because they are a generally good peripheral manufacturer, but they messed up with the Onyx as well. Was excited to see a controller that looks like an Xbox controller, since Xbox controllers are so comfortable to grip. But then they made it too small to grip comfortably while working both the joysticks and the triggers, plus the trigger buttons are absolutely terrible. Oh Hori... Keep up the good work, everyone at Rerez! Been subscribed for maybe 4 years now, and the quality has only improved.

[@scarffoxandfriends9401]

I'm pretty sure they didn't design it for being used in single player games, it always shows the kid being player 2. Why would you buy a second controller just to play games that don't require a second controller o3o

[@Trimint123]

Even then, the Dualshock 4 is way too big for children's hand.

[@scarffoxandfriends9401]

Dragzilla 66 I'm saying the original controller comes with the console, there's no reason to buy a second controller for single player games when you have a controller. The ps4 isnt known for it's massive library of must play local multiplayer exclusive games. So it makes since to some to buy a $20 second controller over a $60 one when they knowwhat it's hardly ever going to get used. XD I honostly forget that I have a second ps4 controller cause it never gets used.

I found it just as easy if not easier to use the stick joysticks in it. You could just add the grips to it yourself. But the PS1 idea i never realized you COULD do.

[@markputnam4902]

Bro this is like One of the nicer controllers for playing retro & fighting games in particular which is honestly the only reason I bought it for playing marvel versus Capcom and such, if you’re trying to play Gran Turismo with this remote that’s probably not going to be the greatest experience. If you were to use the remote for something more similar to what I’m imagining it was designed for like your retro gaming addiction then you’re going to be satisfied. The dude making this video isn’t looking at the controller from all angles, he’s looking at it simply with a simple mind.

Was actually thinking about Second Son the second I saw the “touchpad” on this thing. That and games such as Bloodborne that uses both sides of the touchpad as buttons.

[@kirkbrandt2349]

It’s for children. I sure hope you’re not letting your child play Bloodborne lol.

[@Etherion956]

@@kirkbrandt2349 before in 20 years the gamers of the PS1 dont have a "control of Young gamers" to pasé the Crash Bandicoot

[@Shampoid]

"if a company made a single bad item it means the whole company is bad" kids am i right

[@wzvy]

Looks like a joy-con to me

[@christiancox972]

why are you using analog control for windjammers in the first place?

[@dj_malibu3390]

I have this hori is a good controler d-pad works correctly, in analogic uses a ruber proper for this, is not totally for kids its wrong, works it all PS4 games yeah but dont have (the feature of move like PS3 or PS4) and have a bonus works in PS3 and so PC too, the Controler of PS4 costs 69,99€ and hori costs 34,99€

[@calebrivera1117]

Ricardo Rodrigues oh yes its fantastic

[@Innerste]

My only real issues with this controller was the thumbsticks, which I opened up the controller and replaced them immediately, and that if you're playing on PS3, the PS button inexplicably doesn't work. I understand the flaws of this controller, but I personally like it because I only use for 2D Games or PS1 Classics. EDIT: Also, the L2 and R2 triggers ARE analog. It's just more difficult to notice. This doesn't make it good, but it's just a correction. I've tested the inputs of the controller on PC, and windows shows me that L2 and R2 are still analog.

[@xaytana]

Saw this at a store and thought it was for a different system, then saw PlayStation on it.

[@PlanetNateGaming]

It looks like a fighting game controller, from what i've seen online Hori's primary gaming market is the FGC, press L1 for Fatal Blow/Rage Art (Check) down,forward,down forward AKA Kazuya's Heavens Door (Check) to me these seem possible as D-pad is all you will need for fighting games (Which is why i'm considering one of these)

[@jonathankulesa]

It's almost as if HORI bought the rights to some crappy knock-off controller, then slapped their name on it...

[@MasonOcker]

I feel like it'd make more sense to review more kid-oriented games with this controller than fully mature AAA games, since that is the demographic for this controller.

[@codo8584]

You don't have child hands, therefore you cannot fairly comment on this controller. Maybe you could review child sized clothes and complain that they don't fit you

[@crozel7262]

So true XD

[@snake4322]

I'm 12, and my friend gave me this. It SUCKS. My hand felt like it was on fire after bout an hour of Rocket League

[@DaybreakerRein]

Curious to see what you think of the Hori FPS controller for PS4. I don't know if that saw a Western release however.

[@trollsome]

Another Wii Classic controller clone

[@miketabas]

I watched the video and it seems that the control sucks, but in my experience is a very good backup control or a control for an extra player in meetings, i really recommend it, it works really really fine

[@akill5638]

Thanks , very informative

[@GreyVested]

I've been eyeing this controller for a while, so seeing this review has been helpful. I can deal with some missing features on a budget controller, but the sound of the d-pad and the touchpad function as described sounds less than desirable. It sounds like it'll do for just getting something out for any given multiplayer game i suppose.

[@meleter8107]

There was a simpler way for Hori. I once saw a controller, a green Xbox one controller. It's cheap, it's wired, it's only on natersils, but it works. It was even slightly smaller, but still had a grip on the bottom.

[@ACE07TH]

Him trying to sound like Blippi is running Me away before I can finish the video.

[@RobbertNyhan]

I bought this for my nephew, because I don't see this video before buying it, and he refused to ever use it after using it one time. Now I know why!

[@nerdin1696]

I've used one for a while, its a bit uncomfortable but it works fine in my opinion

[@GoFigure]

Dude you sound like a cartoon voice! Like Donatello from the 80s and that's a compliment!

[@memyopinionsche6610]

And if this controller had 360 games built-in.. You can sense Super Saiyan Rerez.. Building up.

[@iquit1852]

I've been using one for over a year now and I have no issues. I used it for my Skylanders playthrough.

[@iquit1852]

Also only bought it because it was cheap

[@nayftv]

Go to be honest did you try the English instructions 😉

[@ramshambo2001]

Can you do a review of the wireless one? I heard it's better, also was thinking this might be a good controller to keep my pack for on the go gaming for my laptop. Great review and thanks for the warning!

[@Zackman217]

Is it compatible for the PS5?

[@HandlerxEditor]

Geez! I almost bought this controller! I’m glad I slept on that decision xD

[@subscribetopewdiepie6914]

The controller was originally designed to be a taco, but they made it a controller.

[@zUltra3D]

This is like 2010 vs 2019 ads.
