What's Different About 8BitDo's Wireless Ultimate "C" Controller?

Күн бұрын

8BitDo's Wireless Ultimate "C" Controller is great, but it's only real relation to the top shelf Ultimate is its looks. They make it in a wired form, a better charge dock form, the actual ultimate of Ultimate forms as well as a licensed Xbox Ultimate form. It can be confusing as there are varying degrees of differences between all of these - at the end of the day though you should expect a good solid controller from 8BitDo.

The nice thing about a 2.4 GHz adapter on Android is that you can turn the controller off and on again without losing your controller port in RetroArch. Bluetooth controllers in the Android version of RetroArch lose their ports each power cycle.

I've never used a "PC" controller. My controller experience ended with the N64. That said, There are a couple of games I play that have evolved from point-and-click to controller-only, so I've been looking for a decent one that won't breaky Jakey. I'll have to give this one a look. Thanks! Love the house pants 😘

I tested out playing Mortal Kombat and Tekken and the D pad is excellent. I also tested out the joystick for Street Fighter and it was excellent as well. All buttons are responsive, as you said.

The top tier ult is a little more bells and whistles feeling, don’t shoot me for this but I really think the AMZ Luna controller is overly great for PC gaming as far as feel goes. You’re relegated to batteries and either USB cable or blue tooth (so USB cable is the winner in my books).

@CaptainScarLeg 11 ай бұрын

Oof, this guy woke up and chose violence at the start of this video 😅 Technically, both 8bit"doe" and 8bit"doo" are correct. They used to pronounce it "doe" at tradeshows and such. The only reason they officially pronounce it "doo" now is to keep Nintendo off their backs, since they very blatantly based their brand name (and old logo design) on Nintendo. Nin-ten-do, 8-bit-do. It's also the reason why their newer versions of their SNES controllers and such don't completely copy the official Nintendo design anymore, they were too close. I'll likely keep pronouncing it like Nintendo since that was the original intention. Also, there's nothing wrong with saying "SNES" - now if you're one of these people who pronounce it "SNEZ" then we got a problem. Personally I usually just say "Super Nintendo" anyway.

The SN30 requires a little more setup, on the back it has connection methods and unless they make an exclusive 2.4ghz model for it you need the usb adapter for it or BT on the pc. If wired it’s either power off and power on holding start and x or b I can’t remember off the top of my head. If you’re using the wired sn30 it should be plug n play and check your settings in your game. Idk if you can swap to pre config or if you have to map a controller for Fortnite
