Performance

The Atachon TURBO mini hitbox from Poland has 26 mm Punk Workshop buttons. As for the button size, it even caters to those with bigger hands.

The switches are low profile Cherry MX Silvers. The rubber pads help keep the Atachon TURBO stable when on a table. It is too small for comfortable play on a lap, but that is a mandatory sacrifice for such a small controller.

The function buttons of the Atachon TURBO are as follows:

  • Home
  • Start
  • Select
  • Touchpad
  • L3
  • R3

No input delay was noticed during the testing of this controller.

Hardware

The Atachon TURBO is handmade but feels more like it was processed at a factory, which is a compliment as Atachon Arcade’s quality control is stellar. The structure of the Atachon TURBO is made of thin sheets of acrylic. The RP2040 microcontroller runs on the GP2040 firmware. The port is USB-C.

Appearance

The buttons look beautiful with RGB LED. The sleek acrylic structure allows for the insertion of custom artwork, which we at The Arcade Stick can help you with through our art service. In fact, check out the art by our Felipe Fernandez for a client’s Atachon TURBO:
