The itty-bitty 8BitDo Micro. | Image: 8BitDo 8BitDo is launching a new supersmall wireless gaming controller designed for Nintendo Switch and Android devices that could literally fit inside the palm of your hand. The company's new Micro controller, which comes in blue and green, is available to preorder on Amazon for $24.99 each and will start shipping next week.
Fans of 8BitDo's excellent retro gaming controllers will probably remember the company's previous hand-cramping and ultracompact wireless controller: the Zero 2. The Micro seems to be the Zero 2's spiritual successor, increasing its button count from 12 to 16 while still staying keychain-sized and lightweight at 24.8 grams. (The Zero 2 is 20 grams, and Joy-Cons are around 50 grams comparatively.)
