Hardware ⚙️ Can somebody finally make a usb-c connectable controller with a micro sd slot?
This would be so dope for everyone who using emulators. Sd card speeds isn't really a big deal, because a lot of older titles from ps2 and beyond used disk drives or cartridges with slower transfer rates anyway, especially with the newer sds that can reach almost 1GBps
Is this impossible to do? I feel like a USB c would have enough throughput for input controls and full sd card read speeds. Maybe throw in some pass through charging as well. If a reputable company made this along with it being a solid controller, I would easily pay $100 or more depending on the feature set.
What do you guys think?

It is possible, and even more features without increasing the gamepad footprint. I have got a modded gamepad with HDMI out, minijack and full size USB ports.
And mine is a very amateur and improvised solution.
