8Bitdo may have already launched its Pro 3 controller, but that doesn't mean you should dismiss older models. The Pro 2 has been one of our favorites for a long time, and right now Prime members can get the Bluetooth controller bundled with a travel case for only $40. That's $20 off and a 34-percent discount. This controller does, indeed, work with the Nintendo Switch 2, and the only caveat is that the sale price is only available to Prime members.

China's Electric Car Industry Is in Deep Trouble

China's electric vehicle industry is, by most accounts, experiencing unprecedented boom times: the cars are cheaper, consumers more primed to purchase them, and there are lots of viable options outside of Tesla. Unfortunately, that competition comes with a price — or rather, with a price war. As the New York Times reports, rabid competition among about 50 of the country's top EV automakers has led to repeated price-slashing in a manic hunt for new buyers.
