The same website makes metal buttons, resin buttons with real bugs inside, and more. Overall it's not really anything I'm personally interested, but I love that the deck has enough support, and is tinker friendly enough, that stuff like this is even an option.

Rip the poor bugs. Leave them in their habitat folks.

I was curious if they were using farmed bugs or something else
From the page for the bug Dpads:

I really wonder how they'd consistently source that, but mostly I just hope I never ever hear about it again.

I mean, custom steam deck resin buttons containing insects is probably niche enough not to have to source many of them.

Stealing food from spiders? Not cool man! Stick with candy from babies.

As someone who prefers the Nintendo layout, it would be cool if they offered that as an option.

Just swap the buttons to match Nintendo layout, and then there's a toggle in the steam settings>controller to switch to Nintendo layout
Edit ok actually I guess that won't work, the b button specifically is special and can't be swapped looks like.

pretty sure the buttons are "keyed" in a way that doesn't let you put them in the wrong slot. It's been that way for controllers I took apart.

also the B key is curved to match the slope of the edge of the console

Genuinely love that feature on my PS3 controller just so I can’t put the wrong buttons in whenever I’m doing in maintenance
LettucePrey@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y
Yup, this is correct.

People on Etsy sell custom buttons, including Nintendo ones.
They've also recently added an option for layout-agnostic glyphs that show the position of the button (the four hollow circles with the button in question filled in) which I kind of prefer

Or get blank buttons and re-map to the Nintendo config.

You completely lost me there. Don't come looking or I will torch the place with a lighter.
As an avid bug hater (creepy crawlies are not for me, ever), I would never use something like that. The metal and stone buttons? Yeah, maybe, depending on price, but definitely not the bug resin buttons.

These must feel chilly to the touch, sounds super nice.
