Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Buy it, it's awesome. Thankfully, this one is good - but not perfect. Battery life and minor design flaw keep it from the top of the pack.

This multifunctional charging dock is a must-have. It has a usb port inside it for the dongle. The cradle is super convenient, even dropping it in it connects well.

Better than bluetooth. Wireless range is excellent. Latency is superb.

Great controllers that could be used with upgraded retro consoles. This has a very similar size and feel to an xbox one controller. For the $50 price this competes handily with the base x-box series x controller.

The 8bitdo ultimate software is a game-changer. Allows you to customize button mapping, adjust sensitivity, control vibrations, and even create macros. This controller is second in line for flagship controllers for 8bitdo.

Not as refined as "hd rumble" on the switch joy-con controllers, but surprisingly graceful nonetheless.


This software has a hard time determining which 8bitdo device you want updated, so be sure to unplug any other 8bitdo devices b...  Read More


I've only tried this controller on a win10 pc through steam using the 2.
