It looks like with multiple power cubes you can break it up. My favorite thing about the switch is the separate joy cons. This is far far far less painful for me to hold than traditional controllers. If this worked on Linux, Mac, PlayStation, and my Steamdeck, I might try it, as long as I could return it if it doesn't work out.

I struggle with buttons in general. My palms are too small so I can't wrap my hand around them very well. I have to death grip with my palm or I drop it, but I am constantly shifting around as my fingers can't reach certain things easily either. The off-axis joysticks on an Xbox controller is a no go as I have to hold the controller rotated a bit which means that up isn't up. I do much better with PS5 controllers, but still get a lot of pain in my hands if I play too much.
