Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

It just feels incredibly solid and well made.

Light weight and precision pad and buttons.

I have no idea what the logic was in doing that, it goes against 30 years of my muscle memory and it makes zero sense to have that layout.

I was so tired of using a controller with a sharp plastic d-pad disc that hurt my thumb and dropped my inputs.

Price

Plus at 30 bucks you get a month of gamepass ultimate which is twenty dollars now so its a no brainer

So i bought a 15 ft cord (only cost a addtional 8 to 10 bucks) and it works great.

Then this one came along, blew it away, and it costs 15 dollars less!

For the money it's absolutely a steal.

Shipping

I did like that it did came with a limited time (1 month) game pass code too.

Competitiveness

The 8bitdo beats the many saturn-style controllers i’ve tried, and surprisingly, that includes the original saturn controller.

Whisper quiet too compared to xbox core.

The similarities to the sega saturn controller are a definite plus, but i didn't think the button orientation would be an issue... Read More
