So you play on pad, but you want the benefits of arcade stick buttons. Well now, you can have both. Let's have a look at this fan made controller by "Ikzilion" that might actually be exactly what a huge number of pad players have been looking.
What do you think? Is this the ultimate controller for pad players who want arcade style buttons? Comment below!

10:45 Without actual practice with the design I can't say for sure this is the answer, but what I feel would work is turning the Dpad + arcade stick buttons combination into something similar to a wii controller, that is, have a nunchuck style controller in your left hand with a D pad, maybe even 1 or 2 shoulder buttons, and connect that piece to a traditional style arcade stick desing that has the main buttons and you can hold in place in your lap. At least in theory I think it should work, but I haven't seen anyone try a similar desing to have actual proof 😅

The only thing I can think to get rid of the dpad issue would be making it modular. Something like the wii mote to hold it freely , but instead of a stick on the nunchuck its just a dpad with a cable. The box could even be made as a regular arcade stick and the dpad as an accessory that would use the stick inputs. Not sure if the space needed for the dpad to work that way is enough to make it that small tho.

After using a stick for a while, I find it counter-intuitive to dedicate my whole hand to movement inputs instead of my thumb.

I've had an idea to make a fight pad-like controller but specifically for 2d games like platformers or top down rpgs that's based around comfort. It would be thin, and have a layout similar to a hitbox controller but the action buttons and the directional buttons are far apart, and it would also have an analog stick off to the left side a lot like the dpad is in this controller. It would also be able to angle itself to where the end that is facing you will tilt upwards to make using it while sitting up more comfortable, or be able to bend in the center so your wrists can sit at a natural angle. This idea mostly comes from me loving to use a keyboard for playing Hollow Knight and wanting a cleaner experience and to be able to use it from the couch. using individual buttons for movement feels so much nicer than a stick or dpad to me.

9:40 to 11:20 I'd always thought the solution to D-Pad plus arcade layout was to take a bit of design from the Wii. One lap box with your action buttons (the Wiimote equivilant) and a corded bit you could hold in your left hand with a D-pad or thumbstick (nun chuck equivilant) Edit: Scrolling down I see I'm not the only one thinking of the wiimote/nunchuck as a basis. Also, random interjection about best d-pad... I think if the Hori FC Octa could have been clicky it would be perfect. I like the disk/cup dpad over the xbox plus, ps psuedo seperate (unless they've changed they are 1 pad but with a bit of controller shell over them), and joycon really seperate.

This is almost perfect, just needs a circular Saturn or Nomad D-Pad and it would be S tier. Also, what headphones are those?

I remember years ago seeing people cut and glue a USB Sega controller to a box with buttons and I was always so curious to try it.

I think a sort of clicky PSP style joystick set at an angle would make it perfect for my tastes.

I wonder if it would be possible to have the D Pad portion separate from the part with the buttons, and connected with a wire. That way, your left hand would be JUST LIKE a controller. The downside might be that the connections to the board are longer than usual... I wonder if this would add delay.

Yea would love to see this sort of idea get implemented as well! Reminds me a bit of how the nunchuck worked with the wii remote

No delay, electrical connections are kinda like water pipes in that the water at one end of the pipe pushes the water throughout the whole pipe and it comes out at the other end instantly. While we think of electricity as mystery magic being carried through a wire, it’s actually electrons pushing on each other.

My friend always tapped the face buttons like an arcade stick on a normal controller. I think he'll love this.

to my knowledge normally with pad controllers with 6 buttons on the face you brace it with your palm or between your legs slightly or on your thigh... if i recall correctly.
