Just an FYI the 2C has some connectivity issues with the Steam Deck.

The dongle also does not play well with USB 3.0

Both appear to be relatively well documented issues. I

'm still trying because I really like the Wukong one but thought you all might like to know about my experience.

Finally, was waiting for this one. Was different from what I had saved in my cart, seems the seller is 8bitdo official instead of amazon, but that'll work for me.

Do these support the "8bitdo Ultimate Software" that allows you to fully customize the buttons?

I'm sure even if it doesn't say about ps3 it would still work since the dongle is doing all the work.

Dude, heed my words.

If you're going to play on PC, get the Sams Club Xbox One controller for $30. It is so much better than this controller

Source: experienced gamer

Xbox controller has one of the best d-pads since Nintendo's original Dpads.
The one on the 8bitdo is virtually UNUSABLE. Heed my warning. There's a few youtubers who reviewed both this and the ultimate controller and said the same thing. The D-pad for fighting games (SF, Mortal Kombat, Gulty Gear), kiss those goodbye.
Most of the reviews you're seeing for 8bitdo are paid shills 100%

I ordered one from Amazon and 2 months later it still never shipped (expected date kept getting pushed back). Decided to cancel the order. Has anyone successfully gotten one?

As another experienced gamer.

Thr xbox controllers has (dunno if it's been fixed) major face button issues. Went through so many controllers trying to get a good one but every single one of them had the issue. Basically unless you pressed rather hard on the button, it wouldn't register. Or pressing not directly in the middle. The controller I settled on still has the issue but wasn't as noticeable as the other t I tried.
