Made this as a proof of concept from an idea I had. This was more work than I anticipated when starting but I'm very happy with the results. It uses the fold out grips as support and a pull out middle section with dovetail for assembly. It feels as good as my Xbox elite controller and is styled after the new steam controller. Is anyone interested in this?
The part that my phone attaces to is lifting up
Whats everyone's experience with the battery life? I dont feel like getting anywhere near 9 hours.
After playing for 30+ minutes my index fingers will start to cramp and hurt when reaching for bumpers and triggers. Has anyone else had this issue? Even using the wings for more real estate doesn’t seem to help, feels almost like arthritic pain
Is anyone else having issues with Type-C connections on Mac or phone? I start playing a game, and within 5 minutes, the controller completely loses control.
I saw mcons for 100 at best buy and decided to pick one up the top piece that covers the controls when it's closed and pop out to hold your phone it's got some play could anyone tell me if this is normal
I just got an MCON last week and it's great, this is my old 8bitdo controller with a modified phone holder that I jankily put magsafe style magnets on
The MCON is a bit wider and definitely more expensive but it's so much more comfortable to use, even when positioning my phone directly above the old controller it was still kinda hard to use, the handles of the MCON are amazing for this, makes it so much more comfortable to use
Also I can fit the MCON in my pocket. Because of all the corners and stuff of the phone holder the old one doesn't really go into my pocket especially not attached to my phone
The 8bitdo controller is definitely still an amazing controller especially for Mario kart style games with friends, but for my phone and as one of my regular carry controllers I'm definitely switching to the MCON
Being able to use it in Linux, Windows and Switch is fantastic too, I'll be able to use it when playing with friends on their Switch instead of their spare single joy con
I just received my mcon today that I bought on Ebay and everything seems to work fine, except the magnetic puck does not move or slide at all. I am applying a lot of pressure to try and move it but it doesn't budge. Has anyone experienced this? If so, did you manage to find a way to move it?
