Amazing controller.
You can tell the moment you pick it up that this is a high quality controller, no ordinary cheap stuff. It’s sturdy, the materials feel nice, the buttons are nice and punchy.Looking around online, some people report not really liking the look of it. Me personally I think it looks alright, just like any other controller.It comes with a removable, rechargeable battery. But that’s not all, you can remove that battery and use your own AA batteries in it, just like the official Xbox controllers.The feel of it is very similar to a DS4 controller (Playstation 4 controller.)8Bitdo is no ordinary brand, they make some amazing controllers.The software is top class, which you’re able to change every aspect of this controller. I highly recommend.

A go to controller for dpad heavy games for the last several years
I have a lot of controllers… and I’m on a mission of reviewing every controller I own. Today, we’ll review my second 8BitDo controller ever, the Pro 2.The main reason I bought this controller was… to upgrade my SN30 Pro+, the predecessor to this very controller. While that controller was pretty solid for me in playing dpad heavy games, there were some improvements that this one added that convinced me to upgrade. Apparently it was good enough, because I now own three of these… one of them I have button swapped the ABXY and use it exclusively on PC.Features:Face buttons are standard membrane.Start/Select (+/-) feel very old school SNES squishy.Bumper buttons are tactile, not microswitch.dpad is old school feeling membrane with center pivot.Profile switch, home, and share buttons are tactile.Triggers feel light to me (subjective)Controller generally looks and feels like a SNES controller with grip handles and joysticks. It ergonomically feels a little better than it’s predecessor.Special Features:The standout features that attracted me to this controller over the old version were….- Selector switch for changing input mode- Remappable back buttonsThe old version relied on button combinations to change the input mode which were easy to forget, so you had to constantly look them up if you changed systems. This version added the switch to the back which made everything better. You can check my 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth review for my opinion on 8BitDo’s macro functionality, but it’s middling at best for the back buttons, so I ultimately do not use them at all.QC / Durability Concerns:I haven’t had any issues with this controller at all, and I generally don’t with 8BitDo.Functionality:In general, I have nothing to complain about as far as functionality. There aren’t really any stand out performance features with this controller, but the layout puts the dpad in the natural resting spot for the thumb, which makes it more comfortable for extended sessions playing retro games, or games like Tetris (more on that soon) where the dpad is the primary method of movement input.The joysticks are fairly middling with resolution. Trying to set the time in Genshin impact probably skips minutes worse than any other controller I have tried this resolution test with. That being said, I didn’t buy this for joystick games. Also note that this review is based on the ALPS version and it’s possible the Hall Effect version is using joysticks with improved resolution.A staple of my controller reviews… the Tetris dpad test. I play games on Tetris at as fast of a pace as I can (I’m roughly a 1 minute sprinter in modern Tetris games) and see how many false hard drops I get. This controller has been my go-to for Tetris for roughly 3 years now, and the predecessor was the go to before that. Tetris is the game that put be on the journey for a dpad that wasn’t terrible, and this controller ended up being the best compromise so far as far as thumb positioning, and registering a very low number of unintentional hard drops when I up the pace. It has been dethroned in accuracy by my Flydigi Apex 4 however, but I still prefer my resting thumb position with this controller and it would be less likely to fatigue me if I play for a long time. Ultimately, I’m still waiting for something to dethrone this controller as far as layout and functionality… and something may very well do so soon… and when I get that controller I’ll review it too!In Conclusion:If you play retro games, or games that rely on the dpad more than the joystick, then I think you’ll find yourself at home using this controller. Unfortunately today, there aren’t a whole lot of options that use the PlayStation style symmetrical layout and a lot of the feature set is dated on most of them. Since you can now get a hall effect joystick on this controller, it’s one of the best featured symmetrical layout options that you can get today, though some competition is finally brewing from another third party maker.That being said, 8BitDo has made some changes to the dpad in the Ultimate 2C which I have a feeling may eventually end up in a Pro 3 controller. I would be happy to give that a try in the future if it comes to pass.There’s also another controller I’m waiting on that might dethrone this one for the champion of retro. Stay tuned in late October for a review of that one 🙂

As responsive as an SNES controller
I absolutely love this controller. The D-pad is responsive and feels like the ones on an SNES controller, while the hall effect analog sticks feel smoother and lighter than the dual shock from the PS2. Buttons are easy to press, and do not get stuck, so can be rapidly repeated. What I like the most, however, is the fact that when used to play Steam games like Street Fighter IV, V, or VI, or FFVII, you do not need to do any button remapping. The button number/assignments correspond to the default layout on Steam, so you can largely just plug and play it. For example, in FFVII, I just use bluetooth in “S” (Switch mode) and everything works fine using the switch layout. All modes can be used to connect the controller to bluetooth and but will switch the button layout so that the controller will have the same layout for that respective console onto the controller. Basically just switch between the 4 modes on the back and one of them is bound to be correct. Button remapping is annoying, and I’ve no longer needed to use AntiMicro with this controller.The only drawback is, there are two buttons that sit underneath the trigger on the back, and those are not recognized by default. You need to install the program in order to use them, but I still have not found a need to ever touch them.I also just love the fact that this controller ships with an AA Rechargeable batter pack rather than something proprietary, so if at anytime, you need to change batteries, you can just pop off the back cover and replace it, either with regular batteries or rechargeable. The pack that is included is very good.

La versión vieja era buena pero ésta es simplemente mejor. El feeling de los botones es más suave pero no deja de ser firme. Los joystick también se sienten ligeramente más suaves. Si bien no he tenido ningún problema con la versión vieja en el ámbito de los joysticks, si espero que estos por ser Hall duren mucho más.Solamente ha habido un detalle en el que un juego de Android no me detectó bien los botones del control. PodrÃÂa haberlos mapeado pero me dio flojera. Sólo ha sido con un juego en especÃÂfico, los demás han funcionado bien asàque supongo es tema del juego mas no del control en si.

I’ve used this on my PC and Switch and it’s been fairly simply to switch over.Controller fits nicely in hand and controls feel nice, well made, and responsive.

Ótima experiência de compra e ótimo produto. Fui taxado, porém o vendedor foi super atencioso e me reembolsou logo em seguida. Uso o controle todos os dias. Recomendo.

O controle é 100% original, funcionou em todas as plataformas que testei: emulador snes9x e zsnes, dolphin (tanto no celular como no pc), emulador de ps2 (para celular e o pc), além de outros jogos para pc e celular, retroarch e afins. Minha única crÃÂtica é a respeito da demora para entrega. O produto ter demorado para chegar é devido a compra ser internacional. Provavelmente é possÃÂvel achar o mesmo controle com um preço semelhante (talvez 10 reais mais caro) na loja da 8BitDo no AliExpress (mesmo com a compra sendo internacional), porém a demora com certeza será menor que a demora que eu tive nessa compra. Demorou cerca de 45 dias para chegar em minha casa. Do mais, ótimo produto.

He tenido varios controles de 8bitdo como son el Zero 2 o Pro+ y hasta ahora, puedo decir que la marca es fiable (si esa era la preocupación), en cuanto a estética, fué el complemento perfecto a mi Switch con carcasa Custom de SNES.Respecto a las funciones y su uso, este en especial, el Pro 2, cada vez me ha hecho más feliz.NINTENDO SWITCH: de entrada con la consola para la que fue hecho, me ha acompañado bastante bien en la hora de comida en la oficina en juegos como los Mega Man que pueden ser de uso rudo, o cuando todos juegan y faltan controles, en Super Smash Bros, responde bien, se siente muy comodo y cuenta con giroscopio para Gyro Aiming, pero no cuenta con NFC y no puede activar el Switch con el botón de Home.PC / STEAM: la razón por la que compré este control fue para jugar Final Fantasy XIV, pues los controles de Microsoft de Xbox son caros y frágiles, el 8bitdo Pro 2 no me ha fallado, los pads de abajo que pueden ser mapeados por App a los botones que quieras y me han servido de mucho a lo largo de todo End Walker, incluido el contenido mas difÃÂcil, de la misma forma lo he utilizado en varios juegos de Steam sin problemas.ANDROID: una vez que conseguàla base para celular, a veces coloco el teléfono solo tenerlo cómodamente a la mano con Discord (Final Fantasy XIV) o lo he utilizado para jugar ports como Dead Cells o SaGa Frontier, bastante útil, y al ser ajustable, puedes jugar acostado sin doblar mucho la cabeza.MANTENIMIENTO: desafortunada mente, si he tirado este control y si sufrió daños, sin embargo solo fue que la membrana del Shoulder Buton “R” se rasgó y se sentÃÂa suave o se atoraba, sin embargo en una grata y feliz sorpresa, resulta que los fabricantes, 8bitdo, manejan una tienda OFICIAL en Aliexpress por la cuál pude conseguir la membrana directamente de ellos para cambiarla, la única queja al respecto es que tarda mucho y seria preferente que su tienda igual vendiera esas cosas por Amazon, pero sabiendo esto, puedo decir que no me preocupa que alguna de las piezas falle.Si no cuentan con la habilidad para cambiar estas piezas por su cuenta, puedo decir que abrirlo y manipularlo no fue tan difÃÂcil, por lo que su técnico se confianza de seguro lograra hacerlo de forma rapida, con la precaución de que lleva un cable de listón uniendo las placas superior e inferior del control y que se puede jalar por accidente al abrirlo (aun que tiene un largo muy comodo), fuera de eso, no tiene resortes o piezas sueltas de inmediato que se puedan perder al abrirlo.100% recomendable, muy agradable a la vista, funcional y cómodo.
