Hey, good news: SCUF confirmed with me today that they *are* working on Android support for their Nomad controller, they want to make sure that it will work consistently across the various Android devices on the market before adding official support. I'll be sure to update once it goes live, but it does sound like it'll take some time (think months, not weeks).

[@Ryesia]

That's great news, thanks for the update Russ, but imo they should have just work out the kinks and just have universal support before release

Most likely software or the "bluetooth channel".

[@Brunoxid0]

Why go out of your way to make a standard less compatible? Just make a second mode that works as normal ass BT. Great job getting less sales Scuff.

[@JB-tp6uj]

Because the deal they made with Apple is probably more lucrative (initially) than any projected sales of the controller for Android. These controllers (on either platform) aren't exactly mainstream devices, so getting an upfront deal for exclusivity or time exclusivity is probably worth it to them.

[@cabrinius7596]

@@ekinteko That's just the M-Con controller, the guy who made it has a YT channel, I'd recommend looking it up if you wanna know more

[@ekinteko]

@@cabrinius7596 I saw that, but that design is not very good. I gave him some really good suggestions to improve the concept.... he just deleted my comments. So yah. I'll tell you, the best implementation at the moment is mine. I use the highest Pixel phone (root, custom rom) and have a 3D Printed case which docks the Razer JungleCat controllers. The controllers detach, and together they snap together very snugly into one pocket. The phone goes into another pocket. Setup takes seconds, comfort is better than all other options, since it makes 3D gaming in third person and first person much easier. So basically you can emulate upto x4 Resolution Wii, and anything lower even better. That's basically the cutoff point. There is a PS Vita emulator in works, and NSwitch is an option for low-end titles. But I would focus those and other systems like Windows XP, 360, PS3, WiiU, PS4, and Windows 7 games for a higher system. And for current games (Windows 10) I would prefer that on a desktop Gaming PC instead.

[@joseluis.colungag]

Wish these mobile controllers had the lower part of the input a little more inwards. It's not comfortable to move you thumbs down, it's way better to move them down, AND inward.

[@Ryesia]

Making a bluetooth (which is a universal protocol) controller that supports iOS only is beyond insane. Not sure what kind of carrot Apple offered SCUF for them to do this but let's hope we don't see anymore of these.

[@rcash3625]

Haven’t upgraded to a 15 but even if I did… that’s a crazy battery drain

[@TheNameIsSR]

This is exactly why these handheld gaming devices are doing so well. We need our phone batteries for you know, phone things. This kind of thing will never catch on

[@HunterTracks]

For non-Bluetooth devices, you can hook up a power bank to the phone through the pass-through port and get no real battery drain while gaming. I wonder when someone manages to make a USB-C controller with a built-in power bank just to supply the phone with extra power, should work for a bulkier model like GameSir G8.

[@TheNameIsSR]

@@HunterTracks still not ideal, your phone would get incredibly hot + you'd have to carry around a bulkier controller since there'd have to be a big battery inside

[@HunterTracks]

@@TheNameIsSR Well, from personal experience with pass-through charging, it's not really an issue unless the game involves using the touchscreen, since the heat doesn't really get transferred to the controller. And yeah, the controller would have to be pretty bulky, but I think it'd be worth the gimmick, given how common the complaints about phone battery life while gaming are.

[@TheNameIsSR]

@@HunterTracks well for emulation it would be fine, but for more there's more to it. i would never dare buy and build a library of games priced over 3-5€ because Google and apple have been doing s terrible job with their backwards compatibility. On the iPhone especially, how many games have been lost to time already? It's not a platform worth investing in.

[@ourcore]

I was looking forward to your review since this was announced. Still trying to decide between this on my iPhone 15 Pro or something like an Anbernic RG35XX H or Retroid Pocket 4 mostly for playing up to PS1 games, potentially PS2

[@DanielByon]

Can you fit a MagSafe charger puck under the phone, and still fit in the controller? That would alleviate the battery drain since there's no passthrough charging

[@AdamBlue]

Love the G8! I can't play with anything smaller. I bought a Red Magic variant of the G8 and modified one for a tabled (Custom DS gaming, no BT, pass-through charging).

On iPhone. I mostly play basic App Store games. I only connected a controller recently for the delta emulator.

[@Navierstokes256]

The RE games on the app store also have sales and have the exact same prices as Steam when they’re on sale, so you just missed that. Did you compare it to the Consoles while the steam sales were going on too? Because sales period are not always aligned.

The Netflix gaming service has surprisingly good games if you want to try it on iOS. The GTA remaster trilogy, Bloons, Spiritfarer, Kentucky Route Zero, Oxenfree and even Hades. I would like to see them dive deeper into the AA space to expand their library.

[@kewlbot]

these style of dpads are always my favorite, i feel like theyre the most accurate especially if youre playing something like tekken

[@genevievetaylor]

My Nomad is supposed to come in the mail today! I’m super excited because although I played a lot of video games in past years, I’ve found that recently I don’t have the time or the will to sit down and commit to the time it takes to enjoy games on a console. I think getting back into mobile gaming is what I need to satisfy that craving for a console-like experience on the go. What will really sell it for me is if Fortnite ever comes back to iOS here in the US… yeah yeah I know everyone thinks Fortnite is for 12-year-olds, but I think it’s fun! In the meantime, I look forward to fine tuning my COD Mobile skills, emulating DS titles with Delta, and trying out a couple of other games that should be enhanced with the Scuf Nomad!

[@RKMalo13]

First ten reviewer! Love the videos!

[@Nothin2see_]

I have this controller and it’s missing the ability to play with touch games like Wuthering waves and Tarisland. They don’t even let you choose a game to add to the app. So it just sits on my desk until they change that. For now I just use my g8.

[@AngryGhost114]

Might be a good option for vertical shmups or DS gaming on an ipad mini perhaps? Not having the usb-c sticking out I assume you can make this whatever orientation you want, though sadly as is common the sides don't clamp close enough for vertical gaming with a phone. Edit: Ah nevermind, the tab that cradles the device at the bottom I think an ipad would just flop out! Oh well.

[@kylemcgowan1]

Is an Iphone SE 3rd generation strong enough?

[@KosmoCrisis]

iPhone only at the moment, recommended to charge only through a PC and NOT a charging brick, all suspect. I like the price. Just bought the Razer Kishi Ultra and it is a beast. Backbone is on the way but features are hidden behind a pay wall, not ideal. Kishi Ultra is still the best imo, at $150 though.

[@kylemcgowan1]

Is an ipad mini 4th gen strong enough?

How would they think they can charge more than a normal console controller for this?

[@groto27]

I know they are different but curious if you’d rather have this instead of the Gamesir if you could only have one.

[@RetroGameCorps]

I'd prefer the GameSir because of its wider compatibility and passthrough charging. If the Nomad was a USB-C controller I'd definitely choose that one, it feels a lot more premium and really well designed for shooters in particular.

My problem with the backbone and the keshi v2 is the clicky buttons.

I have the same issue with a lot of hand held systems now.

You can see how little people have an iPhone in the comments. Bluetooth support is horrible on iOS. I would never buy any controller without usb-c connection.

[@jierenzheng7670]

Pity iPhones aren't cheap even used. But I figure in the end android handhelds probably make more sense at that price point, even LG V60 with a controller. Hopefully, someone manage to exploit the Switch 2 so we can get Android and Linux running on it to make it a wonderful handheld with the newer hardware.

[@haysoos123]

Man... would they ever make a retro-focused version of this and put the dpad and buttons on top? One can dream. Add a MagSafe ring to the middle of this and you can rotate it for tate mode! I have a G8 and tate mode means connecting a wire with adapters, and I'm not a huge fan of its dpad.

[@logan_cadfgs]

Waiting for a phone controller that’s focused on maximizing portability when not in use. It’s kinda awkward that every current phone controller has a wide gap even when there’s no phone in it. I need something that folds up small and compact enough to keep in my prison purse for maximum portability

[@supersnail5000]

Having an extra device to charge is a dealbreaker on its own for me - I often go through phases of needing a controller, and being able to pick it up and know it will work is a must. I get little time to play games, and i don't want to have that limited time spoiled by a dead controller.

[@petrsonTD]

[@drewnewby]

I have no idea how it compares to other mobile controllers, but the BSP-D8 has made me never want to go back to a non Hall Effect controller. I haven't worked on any Apple products since the Mac Classic was new, but I guess iPhone users deserve Hall Effect too.

[@JuanD817]

Controler looks nice but I still prefer the Gamesir G8. About the AAA paid games on the AppStore, the selection is quite limited and the most modern games (Death Stranding, RE, AC Mirage) look good but barely play at 30fps, I would really like to see older games like the BioShock trilogy, Borderlands, Darksiders, etc. Games that I really recommend on iOS are GRID Autosport, Journey, the SpongeBob games and Gunfire Reborn

[@haysoos123]

It's good but has a few drawbacks for me: dpad is stiff and clicky, however it is precise. can't easily do tate mode because it connects to usb-c. finally, it's kind of big which is good for ergonomics but not great for portability.

[@iamsmashy]

Look up the M-Con V1. Phone controller a guy is making that is DS style and looks awesome for when it comes out

[@BigT87]

Kinda odd that it is Apple only considering it is Bluetooth. The Backbone at least makes sense since it physically connects via the usb c/lightning port. Although I am not sure how it works now with the new iphones having usb c. My big gripe with phone gaming is that there are no phones with the 16:9 ratio. Even thought they advertise large 6"+ screens they are all tall and skinny which is fine for scrolling and hand feel but really takes away from media consumption. Would like an older style phablet phone with a big 16:9 screen with new hardware.

The fact that it doesn’t have a USB-C interface going right through the port is a big turn-off for me because latency is a critical thing in gaming, especially in smartphones where cloud gaming is maybe at high frame but sky-high latency or local native AAA gaming is at a low frame rate so the latency is also higher
