Mount Design for ROG Ally and Steam Deck exhibit Humorous Excess, Creators Acknowledge Absurdity
In a surprising twist, accessory manufacturer Mechanism has unveiled a new product: the GoPro Mount for handheld gaming consoles. This innovative mount, priced at just $9, is designed to provide a secure and adjustable way to attach devices like the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, or similar handheld consoles, enabling users to achieve comfortable gaming positions without needing to hold the device continuously.
Key potential uses of the GoPro Mount include comfortable gaming sessions, hands-free or semi-hands-free gameplay, streaming and recording integration, and versatility across devices. By mounting consoles at adjustable angles and heights, users can find an ergonomic setup that supports long playtimes without discomfort or strain. The mount allows the device to hold steady, letting players rest their arms or adopt relaxed postures.
Given it is a GoPro mount, it could be adapted for attaching action cameras or streaming setups to handheld consoles, enhancing content creation and live streaming by stabilizing camera positioning. Mechanism offers dozens of attachments inspired by this mounting system, supporting various consoles and even tablets, indicating the mount’s modular and adaptable design.
Mechanism's website features various advertisement images showcasing the GoPro Mount in action. One image depicts an Asus ROG Ally mounted in a way that allows players to comfortably game in bed while it's mounted with a GoPro chest strap. Another image shows a suction cup attached to a wall while someone uses a gamepad to play on their handheld device. There's also an image of a man reading from a tablet while it's connected to the GoPro chest strap, with the caption "Initially we bought this GoPro chest mount as a joke, but friends, this actually works really well for reading on a kindle."
The full collection of grips for the GoPro Mount can be viewed on Mechanism's website. The grip that connects to the handheld gaming console is sold separately. It's important to note that the GoPro Mount is designed for static loads only and users are advised to use it with caution and mount accessories responsibly due to the weight of handheld gaming consoles.
Mechanism is embracing the potential ridiculousness of the GoPro Mount, asking on their website, "Yes, this looks stupid. But is it actually genius?" The company's website also features an image showing a tripod propping up a handheld gaming console alongside a keyboard and mouse, suggesting even more creative uses for this versatile mount.
In conclusion, the GoPro Mount for handheld gaming consoles by Mechanism is a unique and practical solution for comfortable, hands-free gaming. It's a fun and affordable accessory that could revolutionize the way we game, read, or even stream content on the go.
