    Great alternative controller for Switch/PC!

    Have used it for the Switch and a bit on PC. It works very well and the custom inputs/settings you can do are exceptional well thought out. If there one little gripe o have is the weird clicking the movement stick does when you and holding it say to the left and then immediately move to the right (I am not doing it forcible fast/rough, it does it even when I take precaution), but alas, it is not annoying enough to make me not wanting to use the controller. Great controller for 2D type of games, especially retro!

    Love the controller. It connects to the Nintendo Switch and iPhone. It has rumble. It's small, which is good for people with small hands. Think of this controller like a PlayStation controller but smaller.

    Its a shame that it doesn't come w the clip and it is so difficult to get. Otherwise it's fantastic. Playing Diablo Immortal on my Ultra is too much fun. Highly responsive!!

    After receiving a Switch for Christmas, I’ve tried numerous different controllers, including a PowerA official controller, the Magic-NS 2 (should have made my Xbox controller work on it, but only did through USB), and one other I don’t remember the name of. The 8BitDo is only one that was easy to set up, comfortable to hold, and enough like an Xbox that it didn’t bother me. These are sturdy, comfortable, and beautiful controllers, the hardest choice was deciding which of the retro color schemes to buy! My only complaint is that I couldn’t getTurbo to work with the Switch, but not a huge deal.

    Love it so far for the Nintendo Switch. I was surprised how big it was (not insanely big) I was expecting a little mini controller but is very comparable to an old ps controller. Couldn't be happier. Defin recommend for a wireless option. Especially considering the joycons are 80+ tax.

    It’s good, but I have a hard time connecting to the switch. And there is a small lag. I’m not sure if I can compare it with anything but I do have input lag.

    Controller works great, buttons feel good. I bought this to use with my 2024 tesla model 3. While it does work if it's plugged in to the glovebox USB, it does not work wirelessly which is what i was looking for. Other than that great product

    If you're looking for a controller to work across multiple platforms, this could be your answer. I highly recommend watching Youtube videos to get a better impression.
