May need to use the app, add to cart is greyed out on the web page and there is a box that says: Want this deal? "Appsclusive" only available on our app. Don't miss out.

Amazing bang for the buck. Feels great and has just the right little extras like the charging dock and trigger modes. Update firmware then use PS4 mode with Steam Input. Gyro is really rad too

I would say it's better. Only a few models have Gyro (if that matters to you).

The D-Pad on the 8bit may be better for classic games. Which model/s you comparing this too?

For the price. Rubberized grips, charging dock, swappable buttons (if you prefer Nintendo button layout), two trigger modes, hall effect goodness. This is a great Controller. Also RGB lighting isn't distracting too.

Really solid. I don't think you could find a better controller for the sale price. Really punches above it's weight

I've read that the buttons and clicky. I just got a 8bitdo ultimate 2. It works really well. And pairs to the switch with out a dongle. I've seen mixed reports on this one. Can the gamesir connect to the switch with out the dongle on the dock? So playing on the screen with the gamesir?

This video is the only one that I've seen that it can? Anybody else confirm?

Question still stands u/crow550 do you know if the super nova pro can pair with out the dongle on the dock?

Depending on if it doesn't it's cheaper than the 8bitdo ultimate 2. I paid $38 last night and can still cancel for this.

The ergonomic value on this is preferred.

It was right on the page I sent. It also has BT mode which works. Dongle will have less latency (true of all BT stuff in general. May not be a big deal for you)

Keep the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 if:
Performance is the Priority: With recent firmware (v1.09 as of late March 2026), the 8BitDo remains significantly faster. Its button latency over the 2.4GHz dongle is roughly 8.11 ms or 12 ms bt, compared to 20.38 ms or 26 ms bt for the Super Nova Pro. <-- these numbers could be way off. I play wireless on PC (with dongle) no complaints.

Hardware Quality: The 8BitDo is noted for superior D-pads and bumpers. Its trigger locks are "true" locks that physically convert the triggers into digital buttons, whereas the Super Nova only shortens the travel distance.

Higher Precision: The 8BitDo uses TMR (Tunnel Magnetoresistance) sticks, which offer higher sensitivity and precision over the standard Hall Effect sticks in the Super Nova.

GameSir Super Nova Pro if:
Physical Layout is the Dealbreaker: The Super Nova Pro allows you to physically swap the ABXY buttons between Xbox and Nintendo layouts. T

Need Better Ergonomics/Comfort: The Super Nova features flared, Xbox-style handles and a slightly rubberized texture that many find more comfortable for large hands or long sessions.

If Software Customization Matters: GameSir's "Connect" software is generally considered superior and more customizable than 8BitDo's software.

If you mean Ultimate 2C instead then that is different.

$38 for the Ultimate 2 is also a fantastic deal? Still at that sale price?

would be a buy now think later item for me but I think woot charges 15% for returns. Torn Between this and 8bitdo ultimate 2 wireless. Don't care about the customizable button layout. I do play fps games so the lower latency, tmr sticks, and true trigger locks on the 8bitdo sound nice. Im also not sure if the extra 2 buttons near the triggers are useful on the 8bitdo.
