Do you ever buy any accessories for your consoles and handhelds?

Do you ever buy any accessories for your consoles and handhelds?
>>
>>318789648
If they're officially by the company at a good price, yeah.
>>
I would if they were guaranteed not to feel like they would fall apart or explode into plastic shrapnel simply by looking at them.
>>
No. but maybe I should. That looks comfortable
>>
got grips for my vita phat. new 3ds xl is comfy on its own
>>
only hori
>>
>>318789958
I thought so too. I bought one for my non-XL N3DS because I got hand cramps in a couple games.

Coming tomorrow.
>>
>>318790028
For you. It kills my left thumb
>>
>>318789648
I wanted to look into that hori thing for MH, but I cant find it in europe.
>>
>>318789648
No, I have a deep mistrust for accessories because of some ingrained hatred for gameboy lamps.
>>
>>318790130
Do you have the link to this thing or at least the name?
>>
>>318790249

The exact one I bought. It's made for a New 3DS that is NOT XL size.

But they did make a N3DS XL grip as well, and I believe ones for the original 3DS in both sizes.
>>
>>318789648
When will they attempt to make ergonomically designed handhelds instead of just shapes with buttons on them?
>>
>>318790138

i do have a retro NES shell/case for it, which adds thickness. funny how video game handhelds went the way of the old cliche reserved for cellphones: they're getting smaller and smaller to the point of non comfort/utility
>>
>>318790559
Looks a lot more stylish than what I bought.

>>
>>318790709
When they stop trying to pander to people who don't buy handhelds.
>>
>>318791238
I looked it up and bought the brand everyone liked.

It was obviously more expensive.
>>
>>318790709
Handhelds should be able to fit inside a pocket well. Unless you had some absurdly huge pockets then putting OP's pick in there would be uncomfortable.
>>
Have a gameklip+ds3 for my phone. Good enough to play MvC2 on.
>>
>>318790236
I think I agree with this.
So many trash Gameboy accessory.
>>
Anyone know if the Nyko Boost for Wii U is actually decent? I don't want to spend mad money on an actual battery that should've came with the console.
>>
>>318790236
never got a lamp, what was wrong with those? (aside battery consumption I guess)
>>
I ordered one of these things, Bigger screen, full size controls, and more comfy grip should make handheld gaming better, right?

I have the Nyko power grip for Vita.

It doubles as a battery pack, which is an added bonus
>>
>>318794851

how does that work?
>>
>>318795013
Is it comfortable? Been thinking about getting one.
>>
>>318795140
It's fucking retarded. You basically plug a PSTV into the back of the thing and you make it into a larger, more unwieldy Vita with worse screen, buttons, and refresh rate.
>>
>>318794851
Ive only heard bad things about the build quality of it

http://www.amazon.com/RK3288-Inches-Gamepad-Handheld-Console-Playstation/dp/B014F68BJ6

Ive heard good things about this though
>>
>>318795249

very comfortable, and feels sturdy and well made.

it has that weird rubbery kind of texture which I'm not really into though, but it's still worth it
>>
>>318795140
very badly
>>
>>318795309
That is in no way the same thing though, that's an emulation console.
Weird peripherals have always interested me, so well see. I haven't seen many reviews about it, it hasn't been available since the pre order sold out a few months back.
>>
>>318790236
Oh god I had one of those when I was younger
Don't remember much about it, but I'm pretty sure it was shit
>>
Do the android controller mounts (like GameKlip) fit when your phone has a case on it?
>>
http://www.amazon.com/dreamGEAR-Comfort-GRIP-Protection-your-Nintendo/dp/B00UJ9LB6Y

This thing's pretty good. Only thing that sucks is it's not very quick to take on and off, so I just leave it in and stopped using my carrying case.

Bought this like 13/14 years ago.

>bigger triggers
>magic battery pack
Great shit.
>>
>>318790236
wut
I still have one of these and it still works fine and does the job it needs to do.
>>
I only buy those controller chargers, not only they work but they are aesthetically pleasing
>>
>>318792760
>>318796881
Have fun playing in the dark.
>>
>>318797262
A friend had this shit, it looked low quality as fuck, and the magnifying thing got foggy in like a week.
He bought a similar shit for the GBA (pre SP).
Good memories.
>>
>>318797503
Or you could, like, turn on the lights.
>>
>>318795013
How long have you had yours? I've heard the battery part of those tend to shit out.

How's that grip on the bottom left?
Looks like the same brand I'm buying.

I've had two, the battery fucked up for both. It won't charge unless the cord is angled into it; like, you have to press down on it or wrap int around the system tightly. It only worked properly for maybe two weeks each.

I still use it as a grip, though, it's super comfy. And it's utterly impossible to play Borderlands 2 without it.
>>
>>318798981
Its alright, I kinda wish the grip itself was bit thicker and little bit shorter/higher up, so I prefer the other one I got from dealextreme(bottom right). But I do have small hands(and short fingers too) so its probably just me.

It also fits fine on dsi and n3ds.
>>
>>318798806
What game is that on the SP?
>>
>>318800936
max payne
>>
>>318798362
Dad wouldn't let me have the overhead light on in the car while he drove. Have fun holding a flashlight with your chin.
>>
>>318798362
what about on a road trip in the 90s, back seat, in the dark???

yeah, this worm light was my bff back in the pokemon red/blue days... I even kept it when the gba came out.
>>
I bought the big zapper that came with the Twilight Princess minigames disc and a handgun thing for the Wii and ended up never using them. Would've liked to have gotten palm grips for my DSlite but they were hard to find at the time, fucker made my hands cramp like crazy.

Switched to PC for this generation.

>>318790236
I had one of these and they were great, even cut off the little peg near the plug so I could use it with my GBA.
>>
>>318789648
Not that pictured one, but I bought a similar grip for my N3DS XL. I've never bought a grip before but the N3DS XL was so painfully unergonomic that I could barely play it for an hour before my hands would start to hurt.
