shows up as an xbox 360 controller. works great for every game I have played pretty killer of a deal for a controller with hall effect triggers and sticks
I can't get it to work with Lego batman, but it's worked with all of my other kids games as an Xbox controller, but lego Batman I'm short assigning it one button

It only works with bluetooth on android. You have to use the adapter on windows. It doesn't work with usbc cable either, that's only for charging.
I bought it last night, overnight shipment arrived this morning. Tests:
  • Android wired and 2.4GHz USB: show up as a keyboard, but button presses don't seem to do anything
  • Android Bluetooth: works as expected
  • Windows Wired and 2.4GHz: show up as "Controller (8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless)" and button layout matches Xbox layout (no L4/R4, etc).
  • Windows Bluetooth: identified as "8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless" in bluetooth devices. In "Game Controllers" settings it is called "6 axis 16 button gamepad with hat switch" and the buttons don't correspond to Xbox layout. L4 and R4 show up as buttons in between the normal sequence (L4 is 3, R4 is 6). So I imagine you could use it just fine in a game where you can map buttons, but not a game that expects Xbox layout.
    • Other weird behavior is that there's no analog shoulder buttons. LT/RT are shown as buttons, not axis.
I'm not sure how to know if it uses hall effect sensors. Anyone know a way to determine?
BTW, LB and RB are super clicky -- very noisy when pressed.

This is the cheap model. So removing some features helps meet the price point, wired does add complexity to the pcb.
It works wired on windows.

I have 2 of these and Walmart's Onn 4K Pro google tv box and the dongles will not work with Sunshine/Moonlight no matter what I do. I was only able to get them to work via Bluetooth.

Hey, thanks for this. Have you been able to use it Wired on Windows, in a game?

Another commenter on slickdeals said it doesn't work wired and I found it quite odd.

It does work wired after switching from 2.4G to bluetooth, but not using bluetooth connection

Yes, I just played Rocket League with wired and using 2.4G wireless and the experience was identical.

BTW for any looking, you don't have to get the ugly one pictured here. The other ugly ones are also the same price 😜

So the Black Myth one does have 6-axis?
Got the trimode and was disappointed it didn't have it. (Needed the wired Xbox compatibility.)

I got this for pc gaming as I've had great experiences with 8bitdo. I am not disappointed at all. Connected instantly and works for all games. The buttons are stiffer than I like but I'm sure I'll bust through that or get used to it. I love the clicky shoulder buttons but would understand why someone would take issue with them. I'd like almost every button to be like that really.

For further confirmation, this worked for me just like an Xbox controller. Tried with steam games and also games from epic like fortnite and fall guys.

This works fine on my steam but my brother had to enable steam input for it to work so I don't understand whats the difference between our computers. It only works for epic with the dongle though so you guys know. I have two of these I love them.
