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.

Where did you read this? I'd like to read up on it. I've been having issues with the 2.4ghz dongle dropping randomly, thought it was just interference from a nearby AP since using the controller in BT mode seemed to work fine on the Steam Deck.

I've sent back two of them to Amazon, as well as the different docks that I tried, because I couldn't figure out which one was actually causing the problem. I just ordered another new dock and 2C, and I'll be pretty damn annoyed if it doesn't work again.

Back when 2.4 wireless home internet was new they said Microwaves caused interference . Not sure if that helps.

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?
Still waiting for the darker purple 8Bitdo Ultimate 2.4g Wireless Controller. Ordered again today because they are not out of stock and Amazon didn't try filling my previous order.

Source: experienced gamerXbox 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%
"Xbox" "best d-pads"

So many different models from them look them same but have wildly different reviews. Any reason why the ultimate half effect one is so well reviewed vs the Xbox half effect one that was posted recently?

I'm sure even if it doesn't say about ps3 it would still work since the dongle is doing all the work.
That didn't work when I tried it on my Switch, so I wouldn't count on it

Does this work well to play on Window PC (Steam, Epic, etc)?

I have Dualshock 4 but it's going bad recently lol.
