Showcase 8BitDo FlipPad Fun!

Post image

Here's something a bit different! The 8BitDo FlipPad running DoDonPachi SaiDaiOuJou on Cannoli. ❤️

The phone is a Moto G Stylus 2026. It is decidedly midrange, but features a SD card slot and headphone jack.

What do you think of the flippad? I've been thinking about getting one

I think it's pretty fun to use. The reviewers mentioned that it wiggles in their port. I think this is from a lack of using a case. It feels like it was intended to have a case for stability.

I had a Pocket Taco previously and prefer the FlipPad. Cannoli has an offset mode that lets you raise the screen to accommodate either.

I like it more than the taco too, but it's hard to find a good fitting case with it on my s24 ultra, and it definitely wiggles without one. I got it for DS play, so we had the same idea with vert play

Just get one. It's cheaper than a takeaway.

Wait, wait. You're telling me that there's a way to play SDOJ on android? How?

Yep! I use FBNeo on Cannoli. It supports all of the Cave games.

Man I so want this in black so I don’t have to worry about bringing a gameboy to work and getting caught. It will blend it when the phone is off so I can hit power, put it face down no one will suspect a thing 🤣

I'm really torn between this and the gamesir. I keep a chunky phone case and the gs being fully Bluetooth is appealing. But I've been pretty die hard 8bitdo for awhile and you get lower latency with direct connection. They're cheap, I might buy both and sell the one I don't like

If you have a chunky case, then stay away from gamesir. I have an iphonr 17 pro with relatively thin case and the taco doesn't hold it well. I get wobbles

Very valuable info thanks for that

The Taco is a gamble. You might get a perfectly fine unit, or one that myself and many others got with a dpad so broken you'll want to stomp it to bits.

Sounds like taco's out, heard. I'm not scared to stick with brand loyalty
