| CITAZIONE The Hit Box Cross|Up under active development remaps input mechanisms found on a stock controller to different locations on the device. Specifically:
The left-analog stick is remapped to a lever on the left side of the device
The digital d-pad buttons have been moved to the right side of the device.
A SOCD cleaner which prevents sending L+R or U+D simultaneously
Since the Hit Box Cross|Up avoids violating Rule 3 by implementing a SOCD cleaner and does not send multiple inputs, it is a tournament legal device.
The Hit Box Smash Box maps many of the analog functions of the Nintendo Gamecube Gamepad to digital buttons. For example, a player can activate specific analog tilt angles by entering chords of digital inputs. This is specifically allowed by Rule 2. The Smash Box is therefore tournament legal.
The “Gafrobox” implements a specific method of SOCD cleaning where holding multiple, opposite directions will always keep the most recent, still depressed input. For example, when a user holds Left, presses Right, and releases Right, the Gafrobox will send the Left, Right, Left inputs to the game. In this case, 3 user inputs (press Left, press Right, release Right) has resulted in 3 different game inputs (Left, Right, Left) and therefore is not in violation of Rule 1. The Gafrobox also implements SOCD cleaning such that Left and Right are never simultaneously sent to the game and is not of violation of Rule 3. Therefore, the Gafrobox is tournament legal.
Some tournament players have developed a novel grip with the Playstation DUALSHOCK®4 controller which allows them to simultaneously hold Left on the analog stick while pressing Right on the D-Pad, or vice versa. The device violates the SOCD portion of Rule 3, but is specifically allowed by the “stock” controller exemption. Therefore, the Playstation DUALSHOCK®4 is tournament legal at Evo 2020. Rule 3 will be revoked on April 30th, 2021, which means the Playstation DUALSHOCK®4 will remain tournament legal for Evo 2021. ... tradotto per chi non sa l'inglese: CITAZIONE siccome le bancarelle di queste periferiche portano soldi nelle tasche di noi che organizziamo, le rendiamo tutte tournament legal. |
