8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wired Controller

The 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wired Controller is not much fluff but pure input bliss. The analogsticks are precise, the shoulderbuttons have a satisfying click and the d-pad which first feels a bit squishy has a nice tactile feel. the two extra reprogramable shoulder buttons (L4 & R4) can be quickly set to any button combination of your choosing without any extra software a blessing for anykind of game.
There are two input modes available the Xbox/X-input mode and Andriod/direct mode which makes mapping controlls for older games that do not work with xinput possible and easy, in the direct mode the extra shoulder buttons also work as their own buttons.
The Rumble feels nice and soft and the included turbo button makes old school shoot em' ups fun to play.

With all those features and amazing quality the pricetag of this controller absolutly seals the deal, you can't get a better gamepad of this quality for this price.

Essentially feels as good as an Xbox controller for 1/3rd of the price. Plus, you get piece of mind with the hall effect sticks.
My only nitpick is the controller LED is very bright, and cannot be adjusted (as far as I can tell) - but this is also an issue that Xbox controllers share, anyway.

The Ultimate 2C wired controller matches the feel of an Xbox controller. Triggers feel smooth and the shoulder buttons respond nicely, while the sticks are very accurate with great buttons themselves. Face buttons feel GREAT and the directional passes the Contra test wit flying bullets.
