What lead you to design this controller? To me, the controller looks like a hybrid of the DUALSHOCK 4 and the Xbox One Controller.
I get the same vibe as well. I'm really liking it actually. The best of both worlds. The only gamepad that's better than Stadia controller for me is the Xbox Elite controller, but then again, it's double the price.
I think it was a Japanese kitchen knife. They did an early docuseries on how they came up with the feel of it and the designers were big fans of ambidextrous cutlery.
Indeed, it was pretty interesting!
