## Description

The Micro:bit gamepad is an expansion gamepad based on micro:bit. All you need to do is plug in the micro:bit and it will turn into a wireless controller for RC or game consoles! The product is packaged with an acrylic plate, giving it a good feel and making it feel less like a circuit board. The gamepad has a total of 6 buttons, 4 on the right as part of the keypad (A, B, X, Y), and 2 on the "top" of the gamepad. The gamepad also comes equipped with an analog joystick on the left. Additionally, the gamepad has a programmable built-in vibration motor, and LED. Using a display and graphical programming, the gamepad can turn into a multimedia vibration controller or multimedia interactive game console instantly. The programming platform supports MakeCode graphical programming and Python.
