    You need to get this @RichardL if you haven't already. I think you own just about every controller.

      Don't tempt me…I already have too many controllers that I rarely use…

      • Clear on 16/11/2024 - 22:41

        What's your opinion on Gamesir? Nova for US $18.37 and the Nova Lite for US $17.96?

        • RichardL on 16/11/2024 - 22:42

          Haven't really looked into Gamesir dedicated controllers, but their telescopic controllers are probably one of the best in the market.

          But at that price for a hall-effect controller + a case, it's definitely cheap.

          • Clear on 16/11/2024 - 22:49

            @RichardL: I really only know 8BitDo. I think their firmware isn't nearly as good leading to issues and apparently the EasySMX X05 is a lot better in ways such as less input lag and the ability to wake a switch. I'm tempted at that low price.

  • darcy07 on 13/11/2024 - 19:15

    Any reason why anyone would ever get wired apart from battery life

      Eliminates lag and connection problems. Would be good at a PC . Also cheaper

        I'm contemplating buying a steam deck so could be great timing.

          Why would you get a Steam Deck and then get a separate controller?

      • Thiefsie on 13/11/2024 - 19:33

        I think LTT (think of that what you will) benched these and found the wireless to have less input lag? IIRC

        • belongsinforums on 13/11/2024 - 21:06

          The same guys who botched that test, lied about it, then complained that people are out to get them?

        For many other controllers (e.g. gulikit kk3 pro) there's a huge latency difference. For this one there's barely anything in it, ~1.5ms.

        Here's the test results (from a great site for comparing controller features and latency):
        https://gamepadla.com/8bitdo-ultimate-2c-wireless.html

    • Starayo on 14/11/2024 - 12:51

      If it lasts long enough, you don't have to worry about the battery degrading. I love a lot of my 8bitdo controllers (especially for retro stuff) but for modern games I tend to use an Xbox series controller since I can just swap out some eneloops instead of having to tether it to charge.

      I have the first gen version of their hall effect controller and unfortunately it has a problem with the wireless disconnecting randomly that no firmware update or setting have improved (the newer models probably fixed that, and none of my other 8bitdo controllers have that problem, maybe I just got a dud), but the sticks are precise and the controller is great to use. Actually, I should test its Bluetooth mode, that might work better…

  • Misha Bakunin on 13/11/2024 - 19:18

    This or new Xbox controller (forget about price)?

    • Thiefsie on 13/11/2024 - 19:34

      Xbox as I think the branding on this (Wukong) is lame. However I'll add this to my collection of different controllers.

  • Vevku10 on 13/11/2024 - 19:35

    Thanks @Clear, I was literally looking into getting a new 8BitDo controller about an hour ago. as my old one has shat itself, and is having connectivity issues.

    Got 1, thanks again!

    • Starayo on 14/11/2024 - 12:55

      Some games work a better with a controller for variable inputs rather than the binary on/off of a key press. Not shooters, god no, but vehicle based games benefit from analog triggers for acceleration/braking and analog sticks for steering.

  • thecloudking on 13/11/2024 - 20:06

    It's not the greatest of build quality. The 8bitdo Xbox ultimate controller feels a lot more solid than this.

    The flydigi Vader 2 > 8bitdo Xbox ultimate > wukong wireless controller

    • quill on 13/11/2024 - 21:01

      Shame flydigi has much worse Bluetooth latency. Would have been the ultimate controller https://gamepadla.com/

      • maverickjohn on 14/11/2024 - 06:19

        Hmm I play on Bluetooth which looks extremely bad. But don't notice it.
        It's probably worse if you play competitive but I played cod, and some rhythm games on PC which seemed all ok

    Is there a controller that I can use with an iPad and Nintendo switch? Looking for a controller to use when travelling with aforementioned devices.

    • thecloudking on 14/11/2024 - 00:44

      Yes sir - Their naming convention is odd but I also have the 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller - https://www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-bluetooth-controller/

      Has Bluetooth, Wired, and 2.4 via Dongle. Design of buttons is Switch layout but sends to PC as X-Input and typically remappable if required.

    • Crimzic on 14/11/2024 - 01:36

      Per specs, there's no motion controls on this one, which is a no go for Switch IMO. Better wait for the older 8Bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth or Pro 2.

        • quill on 14/11/2024 - 22:57

          Not relevant but 8 hours ago it was $36 AUD now it's $35.19

        • imtheonewhoknocks on 15/11/2024 - 09:45

          My order was $21.95 USD, I have an account with Up Bank which doesn't charge international fees.
          Just select different currency option in PayPal and pay with USD instead of AUD.
          You'll need to change your payment type in Ali to USD as well.

          Works for most if not all of Ali's items to save money.
