I genuinely like the 8BitDo. I’ve been using your products for just over a yeah now, with my first controller being the 8bitdo ultimate Bluetooth, and I decided to purchase the Ultimate 2C after my friend bought one of their own, and I gotta say, it’s an important. Better, more comfortable DPad, harder buttons so I know I’m pressed my down on something, Hall effect joystick coming in clutch as usual, and the edition of the R4/L4 buttons so help me out a lot, especially in fighting games. Now I do have 2 grips with the Ultimate 2C.
1. The DPad, although better feeling, in terms of functionality is worse in my opinion. The DPads input reading is way to sensitive to diagonal inputs. Like I can be pressing completely down on it, and slightly move left or right on it, and still get a down left, or down right without even touching the right direction of the DPad itself, so It can, and has hurt my inputs in certain games where it didn’t need to.
2. The lack of customization. What I mean by that is there’s no customize software like with the Ultimate Bluetooth. I get not wanting to add that feature and have it exclusive to the Ultimate, but at the same time I feel like you’re holding out on us. Like I’d recommend that the 2Cs future equivalent has at least 1 custom profile that’s editable, and have the Bluetooth have 3. Instead of it only having a software update attached to it and that’s it. With my Old Bluetooth one, I had to lower the sensitivity of it to make inputs more consistent, but with the 2C I don’t have that option, and I get a lot more directional inputs in fighting games that are unwanted because of how huge the deadzones actually are.
These are more of a person grip then super serious issues, but I still wanted to address my problems with the controller. I still think it’s a good better controller over the first Ultimate Bluetooth.
(Also yes I know I could’ve just bought the Bluetooth Ultimate 2, but these are suppose to be budget controllers, I don’t feel like buying a controller that’s worth the same price as a switch game, at least not again)
