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.
I love getting stoned.

Whoops that was a typo. Stones, I love getting stones.
Wow, talking about Rock and Stone!
Rock and roll and stone!
…resin buttons with real bugs inside…
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.
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
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.
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.
These must feel chilly to the touch, sounds super nice.

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

I was curious if they were using farmed bugs or something else:

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

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