Title: Sony patents a version of a DualShock controller for smartphones
Post by: Redaktion on November 29, 2021, 17:33:36
Sony has reportedly patented its own take on the type of controller that also snaps onto a  smartphone to double as a grip for the device. This version of the accessory has PlayStation-esque buttons, joysticks and triggers, as one might hope. All in all, the alleged new IP looks very like a DualShock made just for smartphones.

I honestly don't see the point in this when u can just use a regular ps controller add a clip for the phone and you are done... cheaper as well.
