It was fun and horrible parrying the inquisitors.
Ah, I see! Touch controls, uh. I decided long ago it was unplayable for me, and got a controller. 😂 8bitdo Pro 2 with phone holder works perfectly: Look, the official promo photos even use Dead Cells. 😂

I'm just gonna say it. I love the Series S, and symmetrical controllers are fine. They're not for everyone and that's totally fine, but I'm glad they both exist.
8bitdo Pro 2 for Xbox. I love it overall. It's my primary controller for PC mostly and I feel right at home with it, since I grew up with PS controllers. It's also hall effect, so no stick drift and it has back buttons but I find myself rarely using them. My only complaint would be that there are no

The D-pad on the Switch 2 Pro controller is still not great
I'm getting up and down inputs when pressing left or right on my S2 Pro controller just like the S1 Pro. Can't play Tetris 99 with it. Sigh. It's the reason I got an 8BitDo Pro 2 controller but sadly doesn't work on the Switch 2 yet, needing a future firmware update.

What are the chances Steam crashing today?
My 8bitDo Pro 2 controller works fully on any game that I have wanted to try it on. Unless someone is already in the market for a controller I really don't see the advantage in buying this new one.

[Gamers Nexus] Impressive Repairability: Valve Steam Controller Tear-Down & Disassembly
Batteries, especially in controllers, absolutely should be replaceable. My 8bitdo pro 2 is imo the best option - li ion battery, but you can swap it with AAs as well. It's a shame 8bitdo stopped it afterwards.

8Bitdo Ultimate Controller Rubber Grip
8Bitdo's official website sells replacement thumbsticks but they can be pretty pricey depending on shipping and country. I'm new to the Ultimate 2C controller so I'm unsure if it'll work but if it's the same as fixing the Pro 2 controller, replacement Dualsense thumbsticks may also be possible and w

New Steam Controller Launch Megathread
I have 4 8bitdo pro 2 controllers and they are great but they don't have the track pads and L4, R4, L5, R5 buttons. For playing MMOs with a controller this is highly recommend.

What controllers are you guys using?
8bitdo Pro 2 with the mobile adapter. Razor Kishi. I really like the pro 2 but it's a mediocre mobile controller, it's much better for desktop content.

Controller recommendations for a total newbie?
I swap between the M30 8bitdo for arcade and sega stuff and a 8bitdo Pro 2 for SNES/NES/PS1 and they’ve been great for me so far.
