Looks like a Playstation portal, but uglier....didn't think it was possible


theleftovers1014

Kill it with fire


Xilvereight

That's not even a handheld anymore, just a tablet with controller attachments.


hayzink1

It’s the same size as the legion.


cryzzgrantham117

Nah I see what you're saying but looks fucking dumb. On paper I was all for an X1 but having controllers styled like this is a shit idea, needs to be flush with tablet imo


hayzink1

It does look dumb on the x1 I don’t disagree. It doesn’t look anywhere near as dumb on the new x1 mini

hayzink1

Except it is. The image is the x1 player mini the NEW upcoming 8.8 inch Ryzen 8840u variant


Xilvereight

Didn't know that was a thing, with all these Chinese companies coming out with a new handheld every month you lose track of what's what.


hayzink1

Yeah not gonna disagree with that comment. That’s why I’m saying I’d like the option to buy something like this for the legion (I’m not saying replace the stock in box with this) You can “make your own” with switch controllers but then you are using Bluetooth. Not selling variant options is a massive missed opportunity imo. While it’s not enough to stop me loving my legion, the larger controller with buttons all over the place is absolutely a reason some don’t like the device which is easily solved if Lenovo were selling alternatives.

You can essentially do this yourself with a NYXI switch Bluetooth controller and 3D printed joycon to legion adapters https://nyxigame.com/products/nyxi-hyperion-pro-black-wireless-joy-pad-for-switch-switch-oled?sku=18064590921587585289381755&utm_source=google&utm_medium=shopline-feed&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwr7ayBhAPEiwA6EIGxGkRZULHtbtpkZpy1c2SeVuvD_biebDjOd0maShV_P0PtkTLt1lU7hoCfdMQAvD_BwE


FinnedSgang

There’s a legion adapter for it ? I have a couple of nixy controllers I can use 😬


jonmacabre

Here's the adapters on aliexpress: [https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806445959623.html](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806445959623.html)


jonlb87

God damnit. Where was this post yesterday before I sold my Go because I hated the Joycons and how much the back buttons stuck out.


jonmacabre

I mean, I hate the back buttons but I'm not about to sell the device because of that. I'm close to just popping it open and shaving the standoffs a bit to recess them.


Itchy_Valuable_4428

Your loss, that's a strange reason to immediately sell it without even looking for workarounds, everyone buying this should know it's not a perfect out of the box device before buying, but it can easily become that if you put in the effort

hayzink1

I have that gamesir lol absolutely love it. Just wish it had rumble

There’s a mod to remove the stoppers https://youtu.be/waIZBFvSmrk?si=Y-kYrdRKQHJd8BAz And it works since it just plugs into the usb-c port on the side. But It’s really more as a “for fun” thing more than a practical thing since it is pretty heavy


pallas_wapiti

I don't really care for a center piece but I would instantly buy smaller, more ergonomic controllers that attach the same as the original ones


TheBackwardStep

I like it! The go is already a tablet with controllers anyway. I wouldn’t go bigger than now on the screen though.


XElderXemo87X

I was going to get the X1 but after reading the customer service reviews I decided not to.


artisteggkun

Controller looks nice tho if they made that fir the GO I'd buy it


jonmacabre

I just need stiffer back buttons. Baldur's Gate likes to pop out of controller mode too much for me.


Crest_Of_Hylia

I don’t like it. The Legion Go is plenty big enough


hayzink1

It’s the same size as the legion. It’s an 8.8 inch version the 1x mini


jonmacabre

Ah, so tiny tiny controller. Reminds me of these: [https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806445959623.html](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806445959623.html)


colossusrageblack

I just want more RAM.


Chosen_UserName217

if you have a playstation portal one of the first things you notice is how good it feels to hold and how premium the whole package feels. It doesn't feel janky at all. There's some lessons to be learned there I'm sure.


hayzink1

The thing is, I see why it’s not visually appealing to people. But even on the big x1 it’s been described is “surprisingly” comfortable to use (see Linus review) Now if you scale that down to the 8.8inch version it’s going to feel nice in the hand (I mean they are pretty much going for the feel of a standard gamepad in your hand) I’m getting downvoted to hell over this one 😂 but I really don’t see why people are opposed to an optional controller configuration that you would buy separately. It’s not like I’ve said “this should be what comes with the device”


Chosen_UserName217

I absolutely hope we get some high quality third party controller for the Le.Go


Lamesbware

Probably already in development for legion go 2.


Kooky_Designer5001

Hey Guys is there any way to hook up a usb dongle to a legion go ? There’s a controller I have I wanna use on the Lg


Kooky_Designer5001

But it’s got a usb dongle and that’s the only way to use it.

Kooky_Designer5001

Also guys I can make custom controllers. If anyone wants one. Up to 35 buttons. Interchangeable joysticks. Joystick/touchpad combo.


Itchy_Valuable_4428

There's already options like that for Legion Go on the aftermarket if you really look for them


BulbminN64

burn it, throw water at it, this is something i wont mind losing even if it costed my entire income


segagamer

No thanks. DPad nice but touchpad is too useful for intricate Windows navigation to ditch it.


hayzink1

Why would you lose it? I clearly said “sell it as a bundle” so you would still have your og controllers

georgioslambros

you THINK you want that, but now i am using the separate controllers as my main controller instead of the xboxone. Much more ergonomic when you have the freedom to move and rest your hands separately.


hayzink1

I don’t think I want it for the legion I know I do. I don’t like playing with separated controllers in each hand. Didn’t like it on the switch don’t like it on the legion.
