Agreed but IDK man. I'm going down the rabbithole of disabled twitch streamers lately but I agree in a sense. While I'm sure a 3rd party solution might do something better I'm not sure the market is there for a smaller company or startup.
Sure it is. The kind of thing I envision would not sell a fuck ton of controllers. I'm thinking of something customisable/specialised made with very high quality materials.
I've taken apart every controller I own. Most of their issues stem from minor bad design choices, and all of them without exception use parts that are not up to scratch in some aspect. (The best controllers in terms of quality materials are PlayStation ones btw, others do not even come close when you actually look inside and see what's going on.)
People who play fighting games, speedrunners, people with a ton of consoles etc. would be willing to pay $100-150 for a custom controller. The market doesn't exist because nobody is doing it. The 8bitdo I have is the best thing out there in terms of "custom" controllers, but it has multiple design issues, is not the highest quality and has no support for anything that can not use Bluetooth.
I see this as trying to create an 8bitdo for the disabled community. It's niche upon niche in my mind
I like the idea, but I'm not sure I like the implementation. It'd be cool if there was a third party controller that had a level of customisation with the casing and interchangeable parts, with a splitter or something so it could be used on multiple consoles.
I have three main controllers plus a couple of others I use for limited purposes, and all of them have different configurations for different things. It's a pain.
