I haven't been able to game much since my symptoms began in late 2020. However, the longest gaming sessions I've enjoyed recently are thanks to this compact controller from 8BitDo.

As someone who experiences early muscle fatigue—really early—the controller's flat design, squishy buttons, and low-resistance joysticks have made a significant difference, allowing me to extend my gaming time. For my condition, it's crucial to have buttons with low actuation force, and this controller offers some of the lightest presses I've encountered.

Like most products from 8BitDo, the build quality is excellent. However, it is on the smaller side, which might make it feel a bit cramped for someone with larger hands.

Compatibility includes Switch, Android and iOS. For more information, checkout the 8BitDo website.

📽️ And now for a cool video from 8BitDo about their design process, which includes collaboration with a pretty cool kid named Oskar.
