Hori Unveils Officially Licensed Mini PS4 Controller Aimed At "Younger Gamers"
Today, Hori, maker of video game accessories, unveiled its latest: a miniature wired controller meant for younger players. According to Hori, the Mini Wired Gamepad is 40 percent smaller than the DualShock 4.
Hori notes the controller will lack several of the DualShock 4's capabilities, including in-controller speakers and the light bard. The Mini Wired Gamepad will be launch this holiday and will cost $30.

Our Take
At Game Informer, we're always excited for features and devices that offer more accessibility to players, so this controller sounds pretty great.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
