    The Tarantula Pro’s most striking feature is a switch that repositions the glyphs on the A, B, X, and Y buttons to ensure smooth cross-compatibility between PC and Nintendo Switch. When users simultaneously hold down the M button on the rear and the bottom face button, an internal gear rotates the buttons between Microsoft’s and Nintendo’s slightly different orientations.

    This going to be huge for all the people who see a button prompt, pause the game, move their thumbs, and read what the button faces say before unpausing and hitting the correct button…

    I don’t know why anyone else would care
