Pros:
– The D-pad is among the best I’ve ever used, since the original SNES. A huge plus if you play 2D and/or classic games. I like that it’s symmetrical with the buttons – an offset D-pad like on the Nintendo Pro Controller or Xbox is very uncomfortable to me.
– The size and ergonomics are almost perfect. Much more comfortable than the Joy-Con Grip. I have pretty average sized hands for a man.
– Buttons work well and are very responsive.
– Overall feel is high-quality.
– I love the classic colors.
– Able to connect to almost any device I may want to game on.
– Includes rumble and motion controls
– Analog rear triggers, very nice for some games on consoles other than my Switch.
– Ultimate Software works as hoped for. I actually didn’t end up changing anything, especially because you can customize button functions natively on the Switch now, but it’s not bad to have the option.
– I was surprised not to see an option to customize the rear triggers on Switch mode. However, the default setting on the current firmware (4.0.1) works great on Switch, anyway.
– A very fair price – cheaper than the Nintendo Pro Controller unless you find an amazing sale.
Cons:
– It doesn’t turn the Switch on, but I’m not aware of any 3rd party controller with this ability. I keep my controllers stored next to my Switch, so I almost didn’t even include this point because I am used to pushing the button on the console anyway, but I could see it being pretty annoying with a different media setup.
– No HD Rumble, again true of all 3rd party controllers
– I wish the controller were a little narrower. Everything feels just a tad too spread out width-wise, but nowhere near the point of being uncomfortable
– Symmetrical analog sticks are just a bit less comfortable for 3D games than offset. However, this is less of a detriment than the D-pad would be with offset sticks. You’re making a trade-off either way, and, if you actually want to use your D-pad, symmetrical analog sticks mean less of a compromise in comfort overall.
– Battery life is good but not as amazing as the Nintendo Pro Controller. Also, it takes too long to charge, but this isn’t a big deal for someone like me who doesn’t game all the time.
– I wouldn’t mind even more color options.
The only reasons to buy a Nintendo Pro Controller over this would be if you really want the ability to wake up the Switch, HD Rumble, and/or the best possible battery, and if you’re willing to sacrifice a great D-pad to get it. If you don’t play 2D games, I think the Nintendo Pro Controller would be the clear choice. For me, a great D-pad and lower price make this the best choice. Even with 2D games being only about 30% of what I play, this controller is everything I hoped for. Apart from the minor quibbles listed in the Cons, I don’t know if I could imagine a more perfect controller if I tried.
Soooo, I looked elsewhere and decided to purchase this controller. Is the dpad perfect? Absolutely not. It's still a continuous dpad. However, it is a MUCH better design and has enabled me to return to the insanely difficult kaizo levels of Mario Maker 2. I thusly also use this controller when playing Hollow Knight given its tight platforming.
Outside from that, the rest of the controller is great. I owned an SNES forever ago (still have it) and I've always loved that controller. The DualShock controller follows a similar design, so any time I play a fighting game or tight platforming game on my Switch requiring the use of the dpad, I reach for this SN30 Pro+ controller. For games like Mario Kart or shooter style games, I prefer the Nintendo Pro controller, but this one still suffices just fine for those games as well. Now, admittedly I much prefer the Xbox (cough Elite cough) controller for 1st and 3rd person shooter games, notably due to the staggered thumbsticks. This controller does NOT have staggered thumbsticks, but given all my gaming time clocked on the PS3 and PS4, that's still fine by me.
The controller holds a charge for a LONG time and has a nice auto-off functionality. I feel like I rarely ever have to charge the thing, and when I do, it *might* take 2 hours...? It isn't long, that's for sure. The controller is also very lightweight which is great. I have not connected this to a computer, but should you choose to do so, 8Bitdo provides software to configure and tweak all sorts of things about the controller. At some point I'll load up Steam and try this out. Overall the shape/design and feel of the controller is great, whether you're using the triggers, the thumbsticks, the dpad, the actual buttons, you name it.
The ONLY negative I have about the controller is that you can't turn on your Switch remotely from it, though I understand why that isn't possible. I will say that it takes a sec to remember how to *initially* connect it to different consoles too (hold Y + Start or hold X + Start etc.)... but given I use it almost exclusively for the Switch, that isn't a problem for me. 5/5 recommend!

Have not had the same results. Honestly, I'm pretty blown away by how well put together this gamepad is. It feels sturdy and the analog is very responsive, I finally feel like I can play indie and retro games like they were meant to be played. This is one of the main selling features for me.
I was surprised by how responsive the thumbsticks were as well, movements were precise in Smash, Mario, Hades, D3, and Zelda... honestly, I can't believe how smoothly I was able to play. No input lag was noticed, that may be more of a strike against the other gamepad I used before, but I can't find a negative thing to say about this.
Great look, great feel, great response, I have no regrets for this purchase and will be purchasing another for a friend's console soon.
Los sticks son de muy buena calidad también, pero por su posición, creo que no es la mejor opción jugar FPS y juegos mas modernos, pero esto no quiere decir que no se pueda o sea incomodo, solo que no es la mejor posición.
También cuenta con la que a mi parecer es la mejor opción de carga que he visto en un control, ya que incluye una batería recargable (propia de la marca) que dura un montón (llevo mas de 15 hrs jugando y aun no he tenido que recargarla), esta batería se puede sacar y reemplazar por otras pilas recargables o de las normales, por lo que no tendrás que andar buscando el reemplazo de la batería original cuando acabe su vida util.
En general un muy buen control, lo probé en switch sin problemas y en pc tambien, solo en pc he tenido algunos problemas para que algunos juegos me lo detecten igual que un mando de xbox, pero esto no representa un problema para mi.
Les sticks sont de qualité et agréables à utiliser, légèrement plus courts que sur une manette PS4 ou Switch Pro mais les sensations en jeu sont similaires.
Les boutons A, B, X, Y, L et R sont strictement les mêmes que sur une manette SNES classique (mêmes technologie et structure, et donc probablement même résistance sur le long terme.). Moyennant un peu de bricolage, vous pouvez même remplacer les boutons par ceux d'une manette classique si vous en avez une sous la main (cf photos) pour un rendu ressemblant plus aux modèles SNES européens.
Il y a deux points forts qui la distinguent des autres manettes du marché selon moi : la croix directionnelle qui est est excellente, parfaite pour tout ce qui est platformer et jeux 8/16bits. Bien meilleure de mon point de vue que celle de la Switch Pro et celles des manettes PS4/PS5, avec un bon retour tactile et plus de précision, menant à moins d'inputs parasites. Encore une fois, même mécanisme et structure que sur la croix de manette SNES. Deuxième point fort, la prise en main : elle est plus grande et a une structure plus droite que la Switch Pro / DS4, ce qui est plus confortable sur de longues sessions si vous avez des grandes mains.
La fonction turbo que l'on peut associer aux touches est une nouveauté pour moi, et un grand plus également.
L'appairage Bluetooth se fait sans difficulté sur Switch, sur laquelle la manette est immédiatement utilisable telle quelle après appairage. Sur PC et Android, Il faudra d'abord configurer les touches pour pouvoir l'utiliser en jeu, la manette étant reconnue comme une manette Xbox, mais les touches n'ayant pas les mêmes valeurs pour votre machine. À noter que l'appairage à chaque type d'appareil ne se fait pas de la même manière, mais dans l'ensemble la documentation fournie est exhaustive, et est disponible en ligne si vous l'égarez. Difficile de s'y perdre donc.
Autre point positif, la connectique USB-C pour charger la batterie incluse. Batterie qui d'ailleurs dure longtemps, moins qu'une Switch Pro mais plus qu'une DS4. Je n'ai pas chronométré, mais elle tient au moins une vingtaine d'heures sur une seule charge. Et si jamais vous avez un stock de piles AA à écouler ou que la batterie est défaillante, vous pouvez en utiliser une paire à la place de la batterie.
Deux points négatifs cependant : impossible d'allumer une Switch à distance avec cette manette, il faut en utiliser une autre ou allumer manuellement la console ; deuxième point, Il n'y a pas de lecteur NFC pour amiibo.
Un autre reproche, la manette est incompatible PS4/PS5 sans adaptateur, ce qui en soi n'est pas dramatique sachant que les manettes Playstation apportent des fonctionnalités spécifiques à leurs consoles et 8bitdo se focalise sur la compatibilité Switch.
Excellente manette dans l'ensemble, 8bitdo est devenue une vraie référence dans ce milieu.

+ Sehr gute Verarbeitung. Fühlt sich mindestens genau so wertig an, wie die originalen PS bzw. Xbox Controller; sind sehr stabil.
+ Tolles Design. Klar man muss den Retro-Look mögen aber wenn man das tut, hat man hier den perfekten Controller gefunden. Ich habe den schwarzen und den grau-blauen und beide sind wirklich schön!
+ Gute Ergonomie. Das Gerät ist meinem Gefühl nach fast identisch mit dem PS4 Controller. Kommt zwar nicht ganz an den der Xbox ran, ist aber mehr als in Ordnung.
+ PC kompatibel. Der Controller kann relativ einfach per BT oder dem mitgelieferten USB-C Kabel am PC angeschlossen werden. Wählt man bei Steam dann bei der Konfiguration den Switch Controller aus, wird dieser erkannt und auch die Knöpfe ordnungsgemäß zugewiesen. (Hat im Gegensatz zum Nintendo Controller analoge Trigger, also auch für Rennspiele super!)
+ Gyroskop bzw. Bewegungssteuerung. Diese ermöglicht es, die Zusatzfunktionen in bestimmten Switch Spielen zu nutzen.
+ Austauschbarer Akku. Auf der Rückseite befindet sich, wie bei der Xbox, ein Fach für Batterien, jedoch mit dem Unterschied, dass 8BITDO noch einen aufladbaren Akku dazupackt - für den Preis spitze!
+ Gute Akkulaufzeit. Habe nicht nachgemessen aber der Akku hält wirklich lange, bis man wieder aufladen muss.
o Kein NFC-Sensor. Der Controller kann keine Amiibos oder sonstige Chipkarten lesen. Nutze ich nicht, ist mir also egal.
o Die Software, die es von 8BITDO für das Gamepad gibt ist solala und das Erstellen von Profilen ist nicht so toll, da man diese erst immer am Gerät aktivieren muss aber man kann darüber hinwegsehen.
o Wenn man das Gerät während dem Spielen laden möchte, muss man dies an der Steckdose tun, da er sich sonst immer per Kabelverbindung mit der Switch pairen möchte und man dann erst in den Optionen diesen als Kabelcontroller aktivieren muss.
o Das erste Pairing mit der Switch ist etwas Umständlich bzw. umständlicher als bei originalen Nintendo Produkten (hier sollte man wirklich die Anleitung befolgen). Ist er einmal gepairt, verbindet er sich beim Einschalten sofort.
o Man kann die Switch mit diesem Controller nicht einschalten, das geht beim Pro Controller und den Joy-Cons schon aber ebenfalls zu verkraften.
Dieser ist mein dritter Controller von 8BITDO (2xSN30 PRO und 1xN30 Pro2) und ich bin absolut überzeugt von der Qualität und dem Preis dieses Herstellers. Von mir eine klare Kaufempfehlung!
