Community Reviews
The GameSir Pocket Taco is a vertical Bluetooth mobile controller aimed at retro gaming on a phone, especially Game Boy and other emulator setups. It feels natural for Game Boy, works with Cannoli and other emulators, and the concept is appealing for the right use case. The main drawback is the D pad, with reports of false diagonals, mushy buttons, and awkward control in games like Tetris or Contra. The form factor also takes up screen space and can feel awkward or uncomfortable for longer sessions, so it suits short, specific play sessions best.
Common Questions (4)
Early batches can have severe D-pad issues, including false diagonal inputs and mushy directional presses. Some units appear improved, but the D-pad may still feel less precise than expected for games like Tetris or Contra.
It can feel awkward because the controller sits over part of the screen and may be uncomfortable to hold for long periods. It works best for a specific use case, especially 4:3 retro games in an emulator that can place the game in the top half of the phone screen.
Walmart offers free 30-day returns to stores, which makes it a lower-risk buy if you want to try the controller. In at least one case, Walmart told the buyer to keep it and refunded them during the return process.
It feels most natural for Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games, and it also works with other emulators. One setup mentioned using the Cannoli app from GitHub for GB/GBC/GBA ROMs.

*I just wish someone would come out with a smart phone with built in controls for retro gaming. Maybe a hybrid of the Miyoo Flip (half size screen is fine for me) and a Samsung Flip. Or a Retroid Pocket Flip 2-ish phone. Perhaps the screen or bottom could flip around or something. Can't believe no one has made a serious attempt at it. So much of the hardware is shared between the higher end retro handhelds and android phones already.

I'm sure it was a mix up as the GameSir store has great reviews, but it really sucks I have to go to the store to get my money back, then reorder.
