Highlights

Quality


Easy to setup and d-pad works great for 2d games


You cannot go wrong with these, superb build quality.


You have to press start and the right bumper to turn it on then hold the top button to sync it to your switch.


8bitdo has had a problem with inconsistent dpads.

Price


Such a perfect controller for the size and price!

Packaging/appearance


It comes well packaged and feels comfortable in your hand.

Competitiveness


As far as the controller itself goes, it is the real deal: a proper 8bitdo controller, not a knockoff.

    You need to hold start for 3 seconds to turn it off but in my experience sometimes it still turns on after this you need to time it exactly or it flashes off then reboots

    The solution here is to keep holding the start button for 8 seconds to 34force34 it off
