preface

There are so many handles, but there are still some that are easy to use. I have loved the architecture design and frosted material appearance of the XBOX 360, which makes it easy to hold and use. The handle is indispensable to the game player, just like the steering wheel and brake of the driver.

However, the choice of Bagiatang FC30 Pro is a special case. It is a personal feeling with a retro flavor. I just want to recall my childhood games. This FC30 PRO is only 132 * 64 * 15mm in size, which is close to an iPhone 5s in size. The configuration adopts Bluetooth 2.1+ARM Cortex-M3 processor (32-bit processor core), flash chip, and rewritable firmware. Functionally, it can be said that it is a full platform support. From IOS, Android, Windows to MAC OS, it has built-in 480mAh lithium battery to ensure a longer and more enjoyable continuous game.

The other five modes allow you to use them more freely and conveniently. They can be used as Bluetooth rocker (Windows and Android), Bluetooth keyboard (Windows, Android, IOS), iCade mode (IOS), analog touch screen (Android+ROOT) and USB handle (Windows), which can also be said to be very competitive. However, the multiple functions mean that our learning costs will be higher to some extent, but the practicability is so high, Who cares？

Some memories are hard to part with and erase, because they bring me too much profound experience. I used to play the white and red machine of Nintendo (the picture is my own), not the XX king. In those days, there was such a device, but it was a star among the little friends. Be sure to come to your home at the weekend and queue up to play games in turn.

  Product Introduction

 For the happy memories of all days。

In addition to a 1.2 meter long red Micro USB cable and a FC30 PRO host, the package also includes a commemorative FC30 nameplate key ring, which is also quite practical.

The standard handle of the FC30 PRO is quite different from that of the red and white machine. First, it is different from the oval design style of the original square design. The radian design on both sides makes the body look more rounded, ergonomic, more convenient to hold, and has a better feel. Second, in addition to adding shoulder keys, two rocker bars are added to the number of keys.

The cross key adopts a sleeve key design, with ordinary viscosity, obvious feedback, clean, quick bounce and reset, and comfortable keys. After careful observation, it can be found that the keys in four directions are tilted. The Select and Start rubber keys in the middle are still soft, no big difference from the keys on the red and white machine handle in those years, and the keys are basically silent. In contrast, the ABXY four buttons should be the loudest. The sound of snapping is easy to remind you of the situation when you tried hard to press buttons in some games. The feedback force of the buttons is not obvious, and the rebound reset is slightly slow.

Two rockers may be limited by volume, which is much smaller than the handle rocker you are using. The key cap is pasted with a non slip pad, so the friction is relatively large, so you don't need to worry about the sliding caused by sweating fingers during use. The rocker can rotate 360 degrees at will with less force, and the force on reset is relatively small. This layer of golden wood texture on the surface is relatively soft, with a feeling of film application. It is not scratch resistant and is easy to be scratched by nails.

The bottom adopts a dark red frosted back shell design without screw holes, which has a leather feel and looks simple. Of course, the main thing is anti slip and scratch resistance.

The middle of the top is a MicroUSB jack for charging and as a wired handle interface. The radian of the shoulder key is set well to fit the fingers. The keys are comfortable. The top part is painted with metal paint, and the effect of frosting coating is calm and beautiful. It also improves the anti-skid and dirt resistance of keys. The shoulder keys are very sensitive, and can be pressed without too much force. The keys are crisp and direct.

There are two multi-function keys at the bottom. On the left are the power on/off and function keys, and on the right are the WiFi and return keys. Press the two keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to start the machine and enter the firmware upgrade mode. The indicator light will flash.

Speaking of the indicator light, the FC30 PRO is designed with symmetrical light bands on both sides, namely the white silica gel area, which is relatively long.

The light also has the effect of breathing light. It has several colors, such as blue, green, red and yellow. It looks very beautiful at night. When pairing, the number of blue flashes is used to remind the user of the current mode.

This is the first place to learn about the product, and then we can go to the actual experience and play.

Product experience

Desktop, notebook, Android phone/tablet, iPhone 5s, WeWhale TV, Youku K1S and other devices are connected to experience. After all, it is full platform support, and compatibility is very important. Then watch the game experience.

First, let's learn about the different modes of equipment startup, so as to correctly enter the corresponding brush mode. For smart handles, there are learning costs because there are many combinations. Press and hold the start button for 3 seconds when turning on and off the machine.

For Bluetooth adaptation, although the chip of Bluetooth 2.1 is used, there is no problem in the use of pairing connection. It is just a little troublesome to manually enter the pairing password (0000) for each pairing.

As a handle, an important function is mapping. FC30 PRO has a special official tool, 8Bitdo XPad, which can be downloaded from the official website and used as a keyboard handle mapping tool. This tool can only be used with the 8-bit hall wireless Bluetooth handle. The currently supported handles include FC30/NES30/SFC30/SNES30/FC30 Pro/NES30 Pro/FC30 ARCADE JOYSTICK/ZERO It can support up to 4 handles and save settings.

FC30 Pro also has two modes of firmware upgrade and extended firmware upgrade. The firmware package downloaded from the official website contains the machine brushing tool, the firmware to be upgraded and the instruction files. Follow the operation prompts. The upgrade is actually very simple.

Extended firmware upgrade can realize new modes through firmware upgrade, such as simulating RETRON5 handle, PS3 handle, Wii handle, etc. At present, different extended modes are rewritten in a separate firmware mode, but only one extended mode can be used at a time, and all extended modes are unified as (power key+Y).

It has to be said that this has exceeded the number of other handles of the same type supporting the whole platform, which is a great advantage. It is surprising that it supports iOS and Mac OSX doubles and Windows system supports more doubles. Is there any key conflict? No, because the handle uses different boot modes and the output keys are completely different, there will be no key conflict, which is suitable for simulator games on all platforms.

A variety of practical functions of the F30 PRO are overwhelming, and the compatibility of multiple platforms makes the F30 PRO extremely brilliant. Although the game can be better experienced after ROOT, for some Android users, the mobile phone ROOT means that it is unsafe, and some brands of mobile phones have a big trouble with ROOT, so you only need to use the Bluetooth joystick mode. Besides, the handle supports the chicken simulator, grape game hall and other clients, and the games in it are enough to play at ordinary times.

Finally, let's talk about the feeling of keys with fighting games and passing games. Take PC end simulation games as an example. The continuous game time is no less than 1 hour and the game experience is no less than 10 models when the game is played in USB connection mode.

Thanks to the arc shaped design and the lightweight and portable overall design, the FC30 Pro has a good grip. The touch of keys is slightly prominent, the keys are sensitive, and the response is timely. However, the design of the smaller rocker is somewhat laborious in the experience, and finger fatigue is easily caused by continuous use. In addition, there is no vibration function and trigger button. In some drag racing and gunfight games, the experience will be somewhat reduced. However, considering the size, the lightweight and portable design also needs to choose some functions, which is acceptable.

Experience summary

From the first sight of the FC30 PRO, I was attracted by its retro appearance. However, beneath the retro appearance, there is a sullen and powerful heart. It can not only eat the whole platform, but also connect with more devices, including PS3, RETRON5, Wii, and other devices by expanding the browser. The unique touch screen mode can simulate the touch screen operation by matching with the Bagbitang APP, making playing games more free and refreshing. The native support for large Android games and the support for many clients undoubtedly bring users a better user experience.

Whether you are nostalgic or self use, looking for a full platform support handle or a spare handle for your Wii and PS3, the Bagbitang FC30 PRO deserves your attention.
