8BitDo Pro 2 (Hall Effect Joystick)

Love this controller, been using it for all sorts of games, and as a bonus I do a lot of Linux gaming which has worked seamlessly.
The build is great although full disclosure haven't had it super long.
The additional control elements from the original are great.
And lastly, it gives that great nostalgic feeling in hand and on my desk.

D-Pad feels excellent, buttons are nice and responsive with tactile feedback and I can rebind the paddle buttons to the stick clicks to allow the sticks even more of a lifespan. The only issue I have had is every once in a while the controller will disconnect and reconnect for some reason while I have it plugged in for long periods of time.

Controller works great and fast delivery!

It's a high quality gamepad which feels good in the hand, it's much better than that old cheap wired German one I bought for $15 like 12 years back. No appreciable input lag with Bluetooth (probably less than 20ms on average), though I'm not a competitive fighting game player or anything, maybe if you are then 20ms is too much.

However, I am actually a bit disappointed that the D-Pad sometimes gives false diagonal input. Not all the time, not super-often or enough to ruin the thing, I'm enjoying Yoshi's Island, but it IS there, and I wish the D-Pad was as high quality as the rest of the gamepad. I would gladly have paid more for a better D-Pad.
