I dont agree with the touchpads though, they are overly sensitive and feel no better then a relocated touchscreen set up. Sure the metal thing in the middle helps to hold your thumb on the pad the whole time without moving the stick like a touchscreen,but still am moving my thumb across a flat surface with no tactile feedback(cept for the metal things) tactile feedback is what the play is supposed to be about... I dont get precise analog feeling at all. A joystick is a.totally different league. Playing Mario 64 with the touchpad for example feels ok at best to me...

I do love my play but its design and spec choices and software support make me cringe.

Edit: id feel just fine paying 600+ for full unsubsidized version with top of the line a15 Cpu and new adreno Gpu with oled screen or something

The Neo Geo X looks cool, but I'm not so sure about the buttons being on the phone. I like the fact that I can slide mine in and out. The touchpad sensitivity depend on how each programmer decides to read the tuochpad. It's not the hardware itself when it's overly sensitive, or nowhere near sensitive enough. (Black Ops Zombies) Mupen's support for it felt okay to me, but by far the best touchpad implementation I've ever seen was in Dead Space. But the touchpads were to complicated for most developers to make effective use of. So I do think that they should be replaced, just with something small and effective, like a slider.
