This means that the games, at least considering only the main feature, would not be installed locally on the device, but would be made available via streaming through services like NVIDIA GeForce Now or Xbox Game Pass.

For the rest, there are two analog sticks, a digital crosshead, two option buttons, two digital triggers (front), two analog triggers ( rear) and the start, G and volume buttons that are added to the logic switch. In terms of sensing and feedback control, it implements linear haptics, a six-axis IMU sensor, and an ambient light sensor.
