AYANEO's first vertical handheld device, Pocket DMG, has gained a lot of attention and love from retro players after its release, thanks to its elegant retro design and powerful comprehensive configuration. Recently, we have released live game experience videos about AYANEO Pocket DMG for players to enjoy.

Of course, due to the unique left joystick+touchpad interaction design adopted by AYANEO Pocket DMG for the first time in a vertical handheld console, many experienced retro players are eager to know the actual effect of this design. Today, we will provide players with a detailed introduction and demonstration of the specific functions and operational experience of this innovative control system through a live demonstration.

AYANEO Pocket DMG Touchpad Demonstration

The AYANEO Pocket DMG is the first AYANEO handheld device equipped with a Hall mid-joystick, which has a larger and more flexible range of travel compared to traditional small joysticks, and provides a precise experience without dead zones or drift.

And this touchpad has a smooth movement sensation comparable to high-precision Hall mid-joysticks, with a large area providing a more flexible range of movement. Its high sensitivity even makes micro operations like drawing small circles effortless for Pocket DMG. In addition, the touchpad can simulate the right joystick pressing and moving function, providing a completely consistent experience with traditional right joysticks, and also has a return to normal function, allowing players to enjoy the thrill of controlling where they point and where they hit.

With excellent hardware and software tuning capabilities, AYANEO Pocket DMG provides a comprehensive and excellent experience in both professional software testing, retro games, and modern 3D mobile games. The touchpad's operation logic and effects can be said to perfectly replace the right joystick function, and even provide richer functions and a more freely immersive control experience than the right joystick in certain types of games.

Dual Mode Touchpad: Right Joystick Mode/Mouse Mode

The dual-mode touchpad equipped with AYANEO Pocket DMG defaults to the right joystick mode, perfectly supporting all the functions of traditional right joysticks, meeting the functional requirements of all retro games and modern mobile games. In addition, it also supports real-time vibration feedback, providing a more immersive overall control experience compared to traditional right joysticks.

Another mode of the dual-mode touchpad is mouse mode. Press and hold the SE and ST buttons simultaneously to quickly switch, and use vibration feedback to indicate successful switching. After switching to mouse mode, the touchpad is equivalent to a common touchpad on a laptop, with mouse arrows displayed on the screen to simulate mouse cursor movement by sliding, and a single tap is equivalent to the left mouse button.

The addition of mouse mode to the AYANEO Pocket DMG touchpad can enhance players' operating experience in more scenarios, such as screen casting or playing games with external AR glasses, or when they want to play classic PC games with mouse support through the Winlator emulator that are not suitable for touch operation, using mouse mode on a large touchpad is very convenient.

Innovation Never Stops, Experience Comes First

In summary, the AYANEO Pocket DMG left joystick and dual-mode touchpad are designed to be more aesthetically pleasing and balanced, consistent with traditional handheld devices in terms of user experience. They can meet the control needs of retro games, Android games, streaming games, and other scenarios, as well as bring more creative gameplay and convenient experience to players. They can achieve more possibilities on Android handheld devices and satisfy players' love for tinkering.

In the future, we will continue to share and demonstrate more innovative features and gameplay of the AYANEO Pocket DMG, a creative vertical handheld device, allowing many long-awaited players to experience the charm of this fusion of innovative vertical retro handheld devices together.
