In the interest of grabbing data points to plan for some tools for you all, I’m curious what the ratio of users are around here.
How many of y’all are strictly Game mode users, and how many of y’all use it like a laptop?
A lot of what I do on the Deck requires Desktop mode, mainly to get at a terminal and to configure Steam for pirated games. However, that doesn’t mean I couldn’t devise a tool that launches from Game mode to do the same things.
I suspect the latter is going to end up being something that I need to build to be the most useful to a wider audience, but for being pirates I’m sure most of you have entered Desktop mode numerous times for one reason or another.
Damn, I wish I had done more research when I got a BT controller. The KingKong 3 MAX looks nice, I kinda like the idea of those squared off buttons.
I landed on the 8BitDo Ultimate. It’s nice, and has hall-effect sensors, but I didn’t realize until I got it that it’s the godamned Nintendo button layout.
It also 1 set of buttons on the back, and came with a nice little charging dock, but I kinda wish I had gone with something else.
That sounds awesome regardless! A model of 8bitdo was my 2nd choice. Be aware in the future that Gulikit also ships with Nintendo layout, but you can buy the buttons and replace them without opening the controller, as it is a feature :)
