It seems like ring finger paddle buttons are becoming a controller staple. I know of these, what are some others?
Clone an existing button only:
- 8BitDo Pro 2 (P1, P2)
- PS4/PS5 controller with remap kit from ExtremeRate (K1, K2, K3, K4)
Treated by Steam as an entirely new button:
- Steam Controller (L4, R4)
- Paired joy-cons (left SL, SR; right SL, SR)
- Steam Deck (L4, L5, R4, R5)
- Xbox Elite (P1, P2, P3, P4)
- Dualsense Edge (LB, RB)
I use a modded PS5 controller on PC. I’ve found for most purposes, clone-binding R4 to Cross/A and L4 to Square/X is good enough, as that allows me to crouch and jump while also running and turning with the thumbsticks. But it’d be really cool if I could remap these buttons steam-side, instead of needing to clone an existing button controller-side.
It totally sounds stupid but somehow I’m guilty of it too. I’ve even rebought games on Steam that I have on Switch because of that and the fact that I know my Steam games will be future proof for new hardware
I understand the thought, but do you have plans to get rid of the switch?
Not really. I still prefer to play my Switch games on Switch over emulating them on my Steam Deck
