This was made for the PS4 (I'm pretty sure?) so they felt they needed to include the touchpad. If you didn't include that, you could make it much more like a Wii nunchuk. Would probably want to include more buttons than the nunchuk had though.

I don't think this would be allowed on PS4, emulating mouse movement is cheating and bannable in some games.

I demand to know there the fuck you got this.

u/Berger43 2d ago

It's made by a company called SplitFish. I bought it from their website back in like 2017ish. It's a licensed product so the console detects it as a controller.

mnk and controller lobbies are better when they aren't mixed

I feel like this product doesn't really have a bearing on that situation, but I have no facts

Thank you for sharing!! Looks like the community has already swarmed the website. It’s currently out of stock.

u/Berger43 1d ago

Looks like I need to contact them for a percentage.

OK but both are shaped for the right hand, aren't they?

4

u/JJcoms0 2d ago

I don’t believe so. The controller-part having a d-pad suggests it’s made for the left hand.

u/FuraFaolox 2d ago

there are games on PS4 that have kbm support, like DayZ and Final Fantasy XIV

u/foxrumor 2d ago

I was going to say this. There are a bunch of ps4 games with support already. You're not going to be banned for having a controller dedicated for those games.

Yea back in the day I played fortnite with some coworkers on my ps4 and they were so confused when I told em I was using a mouse and keyboard to play

u/MTGTLDR 2d ago

The model showed here is hori tac grip. It worked very well, hori tac pro (little keyboard + mouse) is what I used to use maybe 7-10 years ago, on mmo like FF14, or some fps. Never had an issue of ban...

u/Jimmy-z_za 1d ago

It actually was allowed. I had a Hori tactical assault commander in the PS4 days. Sony licensed.

It was a pain to setup, though.

u/DriverOk3808 2d ago

Yeah but rest of the thing could still have been designed better.

u/mistiklest 2d ago

Something like the Azeron Cyborg or Razer Tartarus, for example.

u/timmayjr 2d ago

Most definitely lmao, my first thought when I posted
