    that button arrangement is unfortunate

      What do you mean? That’s the same layout as the SNES controller, & it’s what most of the retro handhelds use.

      Also, it’s running Linux so it’s easy to remap the buttons to a custom layout if desired.

        their buttons are askew from how your thumb reaches them on an SNES controller. it’s completely awkward

        Also, miss me with the Linux preaching; it’s like background noise at this point 😂

          Why the downvotes? Look at that picture. The buttons are askew

          Your brain is askew.

            No need to be insulting. The design is clearly flawed.

                Gameboy wasn’t trying to cram SNES button layout onto their device at the wrong angle 😂

    A few years ago I found this case interesting but by now there are so many awesome (mostly anbernic) devices to do this better. Currently using the rg arc with its awesome ergonomics.

    I have a version with dock and absolutely love it. I can play on the go or connect it to a big screen and my favourite controller if I’m at home.

    Loved this version, and it had the better soundtrack too.
