Phones these days are more than capable of playing AAA mobile titles, and the screen real estate is the perfect ground for exploring the nostalgic arcade games. Xiaomi\u00a0<span>has just shown us how to make the most of the dual screen on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/09\/26\/xiaomis-retro-handheld-case-turns-your-17-pro-max-into-a-makeshift-game-boy\/\">17 Pro Max for exploring addictive arcade games<\/a> like Angry Birds, with an optional add-on case designed specifically<\/span>\u00a0for the purpose.<\/p>\n<p>GameSir has also been working on utilizing the processing capability, impressive display, and form factor of your smartphone to bring back the old-school joy of Game Boy fun. Sure, there are conventional gaming controllers for phones like their G8 Plus, or other options from the likes of Razer, Backbone, and Asus; still, the lure of a classic Game Boy-like accessory is hard to suppress.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamesir.com\/?srsltid=AfmBOoqWS1rWlusZ6VfoTMZzlM3B51RO-BTCQ0saE_UYBzfEDtGmwQLj\">GameSir<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>At Tokyo Game Show 2025, the Chinese gaming accessory maker showed off a Game Boy-style accessory that should make old-school gaming a whole lot interesting on phones. The clip-on Bluetooth controller is the ideal mix of classic gaming charm with a touch of modern influence. This mini controller was displayed at their official booth at the event alongside other controllers in the lineup, so we can expect an official release sooner rather than later. By the look of things, the compact <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/tag\/gamepad\/\">gamepad<\/a> clings to any phone from the bottom, and reminds me of the Hyperkin Smart Boy released quite a few years back.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The clip-on controller has movable arms to fit any phone measuring 6.5 inches or less. The controller itself measures 4.5 inches wide and 2 inches thick, turning your phone into a pseudo Game Boy, around about the same height. To keep the weight to a minimum, GameSir looks to have used a durable plastic material that should only add 150 grams to your phone\u2019s weight. A sizeable USB-C cutout at the bottom should align with most smartphones for pass-through charging during gaming. The built-in battery on this one should last around 8-10 hours for a whole day\u2019s fun.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Since this is a Bluetooth gamepad, low-latency mode will keep things smooth just like the G8 Plus controller, which impresses with its seamless performance. Coming onto the tactile input, the mini controller has clicky buttons and a D-pad, which is surrounded by two extra buttons that can be programmed as C and D for expanded functionality when gaming with emulators. Shoulder buttons on the rear are placed ergonomically for quick access in compatible games. \u00a0The implementation of the design is done perfectly, as this gamepad should be a good option for casual gamers who love to turn up the heat during boring commutes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/09\/27\/gamesir-teases-game-boy-style-mini-controller-for-phones-at-tokyo-game-show\/\">GameSir teases Game Boy-style mini controller for phones at Tokyo Game Show<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/\">Yanko Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gaming handhelds have spiced up the market for gamers who love some action on the go, but there is another section of gamers who utilize their smartphone for their gaming cravings.
