I’m a big controller collector. First party accessories generally are the most reliable, but they can be pretty pricy and some of the stuff third party manufacturers are putting together are real cool. 8Bitdo is one of the bigger names in third party controllers these past couple console generations, leveraging hard into nostalgia with a lot of options that reflect the controller designs of yesteryear. However, the 8Bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth controller is the company playing straight. This is just a solid, modern controller for your Switch or PC meant to be a solid alternative to the Nintendo Switch Pro controller, and right now it’s only $50.
Layout-wise, the 8Bitdo Ultimate controller most closely resembles Nintendo. It has asymmetrical sticks with the left stick on top and the right stick on bottom, with the letter buttons matching up with their positions on the Nintendo Switch Pro controller. Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo will never agree on where the X goes, will they?
