What controller should I get for PC?

First party options are sort of objectively bad value at this point and could never recommend them unless you were playing a lot of a non-switch first party platform as well. Reality is they all use resistive sticks and are subject to drift, typically lack additional buttons or features/remapping ou

Which is better? Or are both not great?

I hated my powerA Xbox controller so much that I gave it away after a couple days. It was so cheap feeling and light. It worked fine but imo a controller is not something you wanna cheap out on, kinda like car tires or toothpaste, if you use it all the time you should be willing to pay for a good on

Recomendaciones de Mandos

Yo tengo el 8bitdo Ultimate 2 y el Gamesir Cyclone 2, ambos los recomiendo totalmente. El Cyclone 2 ofrece mayor personalización y compatibilidad, el 8bitdo tiene mejor feeling en cuanto a botones y gatillos en mi opinión. El Cyclone tiene forma de mando de Xbox y el 8bitdo es una fusión entre el Du

Good controllers with linux support

I use Gamesir Cyclone 2 on Arch without installing anything, but the official app isn't avaliable for Linux (if I'm not wrong). I played a Game from Epic using Lutris and works fine, sometimes it's detected as a PlayStation controller (usually) and a phew times as Xbox controller. Has TMR joystick,

asking for 8bitdo controller review

If it's an "Ultimate" series controller, make sure it's the "Bluetooth" version with the Nintendo face button layout para siguradong gagana with Switch. My suggestion is to just spend a little more on a GameSir Super Nova or Cyclone 2 that should be compatible with most platforms.

estan buenos estos joysticks?

No escuche de nadie que lo tenga pero no se ven prometedores. Yo intentaria juntar algo mas de plata y compraria un Gamesir Cyclone 2 o un 8bitdo Ultimate 2. Hace poco 8bitdo, Gamesir y Frydigi ganaron soporte en steam input en algunos de sus controles. En mi opinion si jugas en pc steam input te ay

What is the best budget gyro controller?

Gamesir seems to be the best: either the Super Nova or the Cyclone 2, depending if you prefer membrane or clicky buttons. In D-Input it is detected as a DS4 controller, so you get analog buttons + gyro. On top you get Switch compatibility, 1000hz on dongle and bluetooth, trigger stops and back butto

laptop gaming controller for maple

You can run AntiMicro and basically play on any controller. The first level 300 plays with that. If you are paranoid about running 3rd party controller apps while having MapleStory on, you can get a controller that basically is able to natively remap buttons to keyboard inputs. I personally have 2 w

What is the best Xbox-Shaped Gyro Controller for PC gaming?

The armor x pro has a mode emulating a ps4 controller which is recognized by Steam and the other input remappers for gyro. But in my experience the gyro quality has been pretty lackluster. If you don’t want to buy a whole other controller, I personally really like the “brook x one se” adapter (it’s
