  • ANBERNIC have recently entered the wireless controller market with their new RGP01 controller, following a teaser on their YouTube channel.
  • The RGP01 is available in three colourways: white, pink, and black. Its design is inspired by modern Xbox controllers and supports multiple platforms including PC, Steam, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS via Bluetooth 5.3 or 2.4G connections or USB-C.
  • The controller features ANBERNIC’s hallmark LED Hall-effect joysticks that can be set to different colours and react to movements. It also comes with a built-in six-axis gyroscope for enhanced gameplay on Nintendo Switch Joy-cons.
  • ANBERNIC allows swapping of the ABXY button layout via software, alongside a TURBO rapid-fire button which is user-mappable.
  • While ANBERNIC has produced some of the best retro handhelds this year, entering an already saturated market with 8BITDO and GuliKit presents challenges. To gain market share, they would have to outprice competitors aggressively.

How do you think ANBERNIC will fare in this highly competitive market, and will their unique features be enough to stand out?

Is it bad that my first instinct was to make sure this wasn't the onion?
