We Can Now Get Steam Deck Buttons Made Out Of Stone
We Can Now Get Steam Deck Buttons Made Out Of Stone - Steam Deck HQ
The same website makes metal buttons, resin buttons with real bugs inside, and more. Overall it's not really anything I'm personally interested, but I love that the deck has enough support, and is tinker friendly enough, that stuff like this is even an option.
Rip the poor bugs. Leave them in their habitat folks.
I was curious if they were using farmed bugs or something else
From the page for the bug Dpads:
Rest assured, no creepy crawlies were harmed in creating these unique dpads – each bug was respectfully collected after natural passing, discovered in serene settings like windowsills, tangled in spider webs, or peacefully outdoors. These DPADs are not just gaming accessories; they're a tribute to the beauty of nature, combined with the thrill of Halloween! 🕷🍂
I love getting stoned.
🎵 🎶 Everybody must get stoned! 🎵🎶
Whoops that was a typo. Stones, I love getting stones.
Wow, talking about Rock and Stone!
Rock and roll and stone!
As someone who prefers the Nintendo layout, it would be cool if they offered that as an option.
Just swap the buttons to match Nintendo layout, and then there's a toggle in the steam settings>controller to switch to Nintendo layout
Edit ok actually I guess that won't work, the b button specifically is special and can't be swapped looks like.
pretty sure the buttons are "keyed" in a way that doesn't let you put them in the wrong slot. It's been that way for controllers I took apart.
Or get blank buttons and re-map to the Nintendo config.
People on Etsy sell custom buttons, including Nintendo ones.
They've also recently added an option for layout-agnostic glyphs that show the position of the button (the four hollow circles with the button in question filled in) which I kind of prefer
These must feel chilly to the touch, sounds super nice.
...resin buttons with real bugs inside...
You completely lost me there. Don't come looking or I will torch the place with a lighter.
As an avid bug hater (creepy crawlies are not for me, ever), I would never use something like that. The metal and stone buttons? Yeah, maybe, depending on price, but definitely not the bug resin buttons.
