Overview
The Schism is an ergonomic Super Smash Bros controller. It is made of three pieces of metal with stainless steel screws and nylon knobs & washers to protect your controller’s finish, which is available in different colors. When done with a gaming session, you can simply fold the controller to close it.
The layout of The Schism is based on the B0XX, but the locations, angles, and spacing of the right & left action clusters are adjusted. Essentially, they are distally rotated along the roll axis, eliminating any need for forearm pronation and ulnar deviation. Also, you can relax your fingers into a naturally curled position, improving reaction time as well.
Check this out too: the close spacing of the keycaps allows your entire thumb to activate the action cluster of five buttons with minimal movement. There is also a resting pad for your left palm.
The components of The Schism are:
- Injection molded bjart keycaps
- Gateron Clear switches
- Raspberry Pi Pico
- Kailh hot swap PCB modules
- USB-C interconnected adjustable modules
- USB-C to GCC cable
A third party adapter can enhance the compatibility of The Schism. You can make adjustments to the controller on the fly, thanks to the open frame design of its modules. Basically, each module is secured with magnets. The modules & boards are open source, and replacement only requires a hex key.
