For devices with joysticks I typically use a case because I feel like they are going to get snagged or damaged but I’ve stopped using them for devices like the GXD Pixel and the RG35XXSP and I find I’m using them more often and getting my moneys worth of out of these devices.

I’ve also never been a big fan of those belt clips or holsters.

    I have a few retro devices.

    • Pistation (basically a mini playstation 1: I modded the case with a exacto knife in order to fit a “Indiedroid Nova” in it)
    • SF2000 (SNES Controller with a screen, only plays older games though. Like before n64.)
    • GPi case. (A game boy with a cartridge slot. Supports Raspberry pi zero. I also have a cartridge that supports the RPi 4 compute module although idk if you can still get it.)
    • Modded PSP
    • Modded 3ds XL
    • Samsung Galaxy S24+ ( I might buy a Gamesir X2 Wireless controller for it. )

    Those are ones I have off the top of my head. I don’t remember if I have other ones.

      What handheld do you bring with you when you do travel with one?

          Have you had any issues with the sticks getting caught on things with your R36S?

            No, I didn’t. They’re pretty flush with the device and I don’t carry a lot of things they could get caught on in the same bag or pocket.

              Nice! Wasn’t sure if you would need something similar to the low-profile 3D printed sticks people were making for the RG350 to prevent it from catching on little lips of pockets.
