Review on ๐ŸŽฎ 8Bitdo Pro 2 Bluetooth Controller - Enhancing Gaming Experience for Switch, PC, Windows, Android, MacOS, Steam, and Raspberry Pi (Black) by Mario Beats

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A very good controller. Faulty Software

The controller is great. Works seamlessly with Retroarch on Android which was the main reason I bought it. You don't even need to assign inputs if you're just connecting to Bluetooth on your phone. The build quality is excellent. It's heavy and doesn't feel like cheap plastic. I also like that it charges via USB C and comes with 8Bitdo's own branded cable. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because the 8Bitdo software didn't work right away. I downloaded from the play store and tried to use the touchscreen emulation feature but the app kept crashing. I had to search for a video describing visiting the 8Bitdo website to download a windows app which then communicates with the phone via USB debugging and "enables" the emulation in the app? I don't know why this is necessary, but after this 5 minute process, the touchscreen emulation works fine in any app I choose.

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Vulgarity
