How can we improve the Oculus Go platform?

← Oculus Go

2nd Oculus Go controller support

If it's possible with a software update, would like to be able to simultaneously use a 2nd Go controller for dual controller use like the rift and quest. Other than improving typing on the browser and search functions, it may be useful for future apps created on the Go.

    With 2 controllers could use snes buttons mapping for arcades and emulators

    And left hand for drive, and right hand for aiming, while looks freely the cabin and indicators

    And more buttons (another click on touchpad, 4 swipes more (up down left right), another trigger

    What I'd like to see is a second controller with a thumb stick. Having given some thought to control on the Go, I realised that two similar controllers will cause a problem because of the lack of tracking. The headset will not be able to tell which is held in the left and which in the right, which will cause some trouble with the body model. With two distinct controllers, both user and headset will be able to tell which is left and which is right (which could be configured in the settings).

    A controller with a thumbstick will of course be quite useful for many types of games.

    I might post more about this some time as a separate idea.

    Anything that improves the flexibility of the Oculus Go is a good idea IMHO.

    Yes !!!!!... If oculus team is any good at marketing ... They'd work on this idea... And create a competition within...

    I would like to see the Oculus go support a second Oculus go controller to work with the other one simultaneously.
    Sure, I love my Oculus Go and hope to one day get an Oculus Quest. But it would be in my opinion an interesting upgrade to prolong the Go's future functionality. Don't know if that would affect the Quest in any way, but typing with 2 controllers would be better than one.

    Anyway, if it could be done with software updates, would love to see it. Thanks.
