    Got this originally for my Nintendo switch. Worked great out the box. Then cut to October of 2020 and now I'm using it more with my new gaming pc via bluetooth. Love the battery life on this baby. Lasts longer than my ds4

    Needed a controller for the switch, but didn’t want to pay for the pro controller. This went on sale so I gave it a shot. It feels great, like a better feeling ps4 controller. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a good controller.

    A lot better than Nintendo's controllers, no joystick drift and the battery lasts an incredible amount of time, tricky to get used because of the orientation but it has been a joy using this controller.

    I use this controller with my Switch and PC. I like how it can be used both wirelessly and wired. Overall I am very pleased with the controller. I just wish it could be used for Xbox and Playstation too.

    I really enjoyed the feel of this controller. Has a mix of PS and SNES controller. It has rumble which was a surprise to me. I used it on every console that is works on. I was so pleased with it, and I've been buying them and gifting it.

    Wanted a controller for my Switch without spending 70 on the pro controller. This is awesome, occasionally takes a couple attempts to connect but otherwise it is comfortable, responsive, and I love the SNES aesthetics.

    Works easily out if the box with the Switch. Good feeling buttons and lasts a while wirelessly on the rechargeable battery. Had a bit of trouble getting it to work wirelessly with an older Mac laptop but worked fine plugged in.

    Great controller. I'm using it attached to a Fire Stick 4k with retro games. Was super easy to connect, is very solid and well built. Price could be better IMO, it's essentially the price of a PS4 or XB1 controller.

    Treating this as a third party controller doesn't do it justice. Since mine arrived, it quickly became my go-to controller on both switch and pc. Solid build quality and great software for any customizations I could think of.

    It is a great controller for Switch. Compare to Switch pro controller, only down side is... the missing HD rumble. I would still suggest pro controller if the precise rumble feedback is necessary. SN30 Pro+ is great alternative; actually I love the button feel and placements more than pro controller.

    This controller combines the excellent SNES D-pad and buttons with ergonomics more comfortable for my giant monster hands. The only downside is that it can't turn the Switch on; you need to power it on and then hold the Start button to sync it up every time. Aside from that setup though, this controller feels fantastic.

    I got it on sale for $39.99 and at that price, I think it’s worth it. It’s compatible with Mac OS, PC, the Nintendo Switch, and android. I use it for Mac and PC. The joysticks are little too loose feeling for my taste since I play a lot of FPS but overall, I love it. Looks super cool. I do wish it had an on/button.

    Great product! Connects quickly and easily to my Nintendo Switch and Nvidia Shield. It won’t wake up the switch from sleep mode unfortunately due to the way it connects, but aside from that it’s a great controller.

    I've been using this controller with Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade on a GameBoy Advance emulator on my PC, and it's excellent for the grid based movement system. The d-pad is by far the best d-pad I've ever tried

    This is a great SNES inspired Bluetooth controller. Grew up playing Super Nintendo so this feels great and has a hot of nostalgia for me. 8bitdo's software to update the firmware and customize the controller is good too.

    This controller is almost exactly like a PS4 controller which is what I was looking for. Very comfortable and there’s even a tool you can download on 8bitdo’s website to change sensitivity and control layouts!

    I bought this for use on my living room gaming computer. It is one of the better controller 3rd party controllers I've used, and way cheaper than official 1st party controllers. Highly recommended!

    No complaints - just does it what it's suppose to do ... a bluetooth controller that looks like an old-school SNES controller had a baby with a playstation controller as part of its charm. The end.
