The M-Con V1, despite me describing it as a modern Xperia Play, isn't actually a phone at all. Instead, we see an imaginative implementation of the Xperia Play's best feature: the slide-away controls. Attaching to an iPhone via MagSafe (or any Android phone with a MagSafe case, these do exist!), the M-Con V1 acts as a case for the back of your phone, with the added bonus of accessible sliding controls. The controller connects via Bluetooth and promises to work with the Switch, PC, and Mac, on top of the popular iOS and Android mobile operating systems. Also featuring a built-in kickstand, the controller is able to detach from the case and function by itself.
As of this post, the creator Josh King (Eternal Progression on YouTube) has released a teaser video on YouTube, as well as a form to sign up for more information as it arrives. Is this the controller you've been waiting for to give mobile gaming a shot? Is this a better pick for you than a standalone retro gaming handheld? Let me know your thoughts below.
