8bitdo is an unreliable company and if you're thinking of buying one of their controllers to use with your Switch/Switch 2, just buy a Nintendo controller.

https://support.8bitdo.com/firmware-updater.html Their firmware update tool is here, and is updated for the Switch 2 for most controllers they'll continue supporting. It automatically detects controllers and is what I used to update an SN30 Pro, Pro 2, and Ultimate C. Sometimes the update process st

8bitdo firmware updater script

If you bought some controllers a while ago you need to update them to get switch 2 support. That is just one of the features they added, but you can check the changelogs on 8bitdo's page. AFAIK it's safe, but don't quote me on that haha. I did it for my SN30 pro and it worked flawlessly but I don't

8BitDo M30 Bluetooth just got a firmware update for Switch 2 compatibility!

If they don’t update the SN30 Pro+, I’ll never buy another 8BitDo controller again

Gamesir ou 8bitdo

Comprei recentemente os meus primeiros comandos de ambas as marcas e até ao momento só tenho a dizer bem. 8bitdo SN30 Pro, 8bitdo 64: uso ambos no PC, também já usei ambos no tablet. Ótima integração com Steam Input , Steam Link e Retroarch. Gamesir X5S: uso no telemóvel e funcionou na perfeição em

Does anyone have tried this pocket gamepad from Aliexpress for Gyro gaming?

https://www.8bitdo.com/sn30-pro-g-classic-or-sn30-pro-sn/ is probably a better option as it has Steam Input support

Best bluetooth controller to use with Steam Deck while docked?

Also using 8bitdo Ultimate 2. Works very well on both PC (via dongle and dock) and Steam Deck (via Bluetooth). Lots of buttons. I’ve had an easier time with the Ultimate 2 than the SN30 Pro, which seems more finicky or forgets what mode it was in.

8bitdo SN30 pro xbox

Yes, I have this issue as well on MacOS Tahoe. This controller is really frustrating. The controller works well on iOS and SteamOS, but not on Mac. The regular SN30 Pro works much better. The SN30 Pro for Android and Xbox Cloud Gaming or whatever its called only has one connection mode. Its D-Input

8BitDo Wireless controller?

I use both the 8bitdo SN30 pro's (both the Xbox d input version and Nintendo X-input version) with the help of steam, both controllers work great and I use them for 2 player games with friends on the go!

Sup people tomorrow I'm getting my first rg35xx pro so I have a question.

I managed to link my 8bitdo Sn30 Pro and play games that way on my RG34XXSP, but I think you will need CFW for it to work properly as I’m not sure is the stock OS has bluetooth enabled by default. Both MuOS and Knulli support bluetooth on XX devices, I know that much :)
