Just spend the extra $5-10 for Hall effects on the same Amazon page for the 2C
They're taking about the 100% optional Dualsense Edge controller that has a ton of extra features and swappable parts, so not comparable at all to this conversation.

keep in mind switch 1 controllers will NOT turn on a switch 2. they will all work fine as controllers inside games, but if you want to try to use it as a primary controller i'd say turning the system on without having to press the on button on the console is important.

I'm sure 8bitdo and others will put out updated controllers or maybe even a firmware update can do it but just something to keep in mind.

Buyer Beware.....These are not working on Switch 2, it's all over the Internet, nobody can get any of the Switch 8bitdo controllers to work on Switch 2, going to take a firmware update from 8bitdo.

I have the Navy version of this controller I bought specifically for Switch 2, they connect to the Switch 2, but none of the buttons or inputs work and the Switch 2 doesn't recognize it on the controller layout screen.

I swear....every single 8Bitdo seems to have a huge missing feature or strange omission. If it has back buttons, it lacks gyro, if it has gyro it has no back buttons, if there is a Xbox logo then it might not have bluetooth or is (needlessly) it is missing something else random like Hall effect (whatever), the wired version of a model number rarely share the same features of the wireless model of the otherwise exact same model #.

Dear 8Bitdo cut your number of SKU's by 90% but not needlessly omitting features. Probably would lower your overall cost of production and distribution even if the individual controllers might technically cost negligibly more.
lol, so true! You need a matrix table to see wtf they left out of each model. I used to like them, but not anymore.

Apparently the firmware is already out and works on switch 2 already

These all say for switch but could you use them for PC games too since it's Bluetooth?
Steam recognizes most Switch controllers automatically and most (if not all) 8Bitdo work with PC's by default. Also supports USB C so worse case Windows should (in theory) see it as a generic controller. Things like gyro, rumble, etc could be hit or miss if that occured.

FWIW, (again with Steam) I found 99% of controller magically work as long as the game is launched there, even if added as a non-Steam game.

That post is not accurate. I'm using two of the pink controllers right now for the Switch 2.

8BitDo Ultimate 2C Bluetooth Controller for Switch - both were purchased for $19 when they were on sale. They work Great with the switch 2. I had to plug them into my PC to update the firmware first.
