And if you're going to the effort of using a separate controller, you might as well use a separate gaming device.
- throwaway48476 3y agoThere are controllers that integrate your phone and using your phone makes financial sense and reduces the hassle of having to carry a separate device.
- bluescrn 3y ago> using your phone makes financial sense We're talking about Apple devices here...
- al_borland 3y agoAnyone still making “Apple overpriced” comments hasn’t really looked at prices in a long time. Starting prices of the normal phones: iPhone 15 - $799 iPhone 15+ - $899 Samsung S24 - $859 Samsung S24+ - $999
- musicale 3y agoGamesir G8 Galileo is my winning option for USB-C (after trying Backbone One, Razer Kishi, and others.) Makes for a pretty solid gaming* handheld, with a design that is similar to the Switch, Steam Deck, etc. *(if you can find mobile games without awful monetization schemes)
- Firmwarrior 3y agoPersonally I'd rather be able to game on my beefy iPhone 15 with a clip-on gamepad than have to lug around a slow, loud, gigantic Steam Deck or a laughably primitive Switch
- iggldiggl 3y ago> Yeah, there's not much point bothering if you're limited to a touchscreen Mmhm, I used to have a PDA [1] which had four hardware buttons below the screen and a D-pad, and that was rather nifty for that kind of games. [1] Asus MyPal A620 – it came as part of a car navigation system which was gifted to us by some relatives. We never used the navigation part much, but because the whole thing was based on a regular Windows Mobile PDA which could run any software available, I appropriated it for myself :-)
