The amazing little gadget is well worth the price.

when I first got this thing. I wasn't quite sure how it was going to turn out, but honestly after fiddling around I'm quite surprised by its versatility. The thing is I can hook up my PS4 controller to this thing and play with it reliably with almost no wait times if you or you know someone who wants to hook up a controller but doesn't have a compatible switch as in general, I would recommend to get these. My only caveat is that you have to go to the website to download the drivers, but other…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Hard to remember, but it was

Practically useless for multiplayer

recommended only for singleplayer, the thing works well, it's a bit difficult to insert, but otherwise it works well, I hardly notice any lags, doesn't disconnect , and doesn't take up much space , so why the bad rating? I bought this thing thinking it would be useful to play in local multiplayer with friends in a switch, it's not, in fact it's the other way around, I have joycons from a PS4 controller and two other wired controllers if I connect a PS4 controller to an adapter disables three…

Pros
  • Easy-to-read control panel
Cons
  • There are nuances

Firmware 2.0 doesn't work with the Switch Pro controller

Tried to use this to connect the Switch Pro controller to a Windows 10 PC Updated firmware but apparently the latest firmware just doesn't work with the Switch Pro controller. Tried with USB 2.0 ports. Tried all ports on the computer. Guess I can upgrade to 1.32 and then map it to reWASD or some other software and blah blah blah. Look, I'm a working adult and I just don't have the time or patience for this nonsense when there are other options. There is something that works out of the box. If…

Works great on Nintendo Switch

Purchased solely for use on Nintendo Switch and works great. Exactly what I was looking for. Bought from 8Bitdo direct seller (I prefer to buy direct from Amazon or from the manufacturer so that's a plus) and mine came with the latest firmware (1.28) already installed. Paired with my DS4 on the first try and works flawlessly. It's a cheap alternative to buying a $60-$70 Nintendo Pro controller, especially if you already have a controller. The brooch pin was a nice touch, I will add it to my…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Some errors

Works perfectly in Nintendo Switch

EDIT: Be sure to use a USB 2.0 port when connecting this adapter to a PC. After some testing and reading some reviews online, I found that using a USB 3.0 port would cause interference and lead to latency and connectivity issues. With USB 2.0 I support my next review. I've bought other Bluetooth USB adapters in the past but they never worked properly for one reason or another (latency, connectivity issues, etc.). I decided to take the plunge because 8bitdo seems like a pretty reputable brand…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • No Form Required

When it works it's great but often cuts out

I got this mainly for using the Switch Pro controller and Xbox One controller on PC with the side effect being that I have the Xbox One controller on my switch can use. Also. The initial problems I had were solved by updating the firmware, and even updating was difficult until I found out that you have to hold down the pairing button when plugging it into the USB port for it to enter update mode changes. It saved me heartache when it didn't even register my Switch Pro controller on the PC…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Expensive
