Description

The Kitronik :GAME Controller for the BBC micro:bit is a programmable gamepad-style controller that allows better gaming on the micro:bit or the ability to control other devices via the micro:bit radio. It features on-board sound, 4 directional buttons, 2 fire buttons, haptic feedback, and breakout points for adding shoulder buttons. It is a retro gaming accessory for the BBC microbit.

The Kitronik :GAME Controller is similar to the:GAME ZIP 64 in terms of design and features, but it lacks the ZIP LED screen. This is a great deal if the micro:own bit's LED matrix is sufficient for the game. And also, it is useful to control other devices such as robots and buggies. Furthermore, it consumes significantly less power than its larger/older sibling.

The board is powered by two AA batteries, which also power the attached micro:bit.

Requires:

  • 2 x AA Batteries.
  • BBC micro:bit.
  • Type-A to Micro-B USB Cable.
  • MakeCode Editor.

Features

  • A hand-held gaming solution for the BBC micro:bit

  • Breakout pads for adding shoulder buttons
  • The board features an on/off switch for power or to act as a reset if the :GAME Controllers enclosure blocks the micro:bit reset switch
