I decided to buy the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controller to use with the Switch 2 once I read that the latest firmware adds the ability to wake the console. I have owned the Switch 2 since launch day and had been using Nintendo's Switch 2 Pro Controller with it exclusively. First of all, I love Nintendo's pro controller, but I wanted to see what alternatives were out there and I had been curious about 8BitDo's products for a long time. The build quality of the Ultimate 2 is exceptional. It is built like a tank and feels great in your hands. The rumble is pretty aggressive and probably the first thing you will notice because of the night and day difference from Nintendo's own controllers. The Ultimate 2's charging stand is also a nice feature that is sorely missing from Nintendo’s own official pro controller. If you plan to use this controller with the Switch 2 there a few things you should know before deciding whether or not this is the controller for you. The Ultimate 2 features additional buttons that you can map on the controller itself but you will lose the Switch 2's GR & GL software specific button mapping feature. You will also lose the "Chat" button. I don't use either feature so they were not important to me. If these features are important to you, just know that this controller currently does not support them. The firmware update process can be a bit tricky. As a Mac user I found that the included USB-A to USB-C cable doesn't work, at least not on macOS. I had to use a USB-C to USB-C cable in order for the updater to see the controller. Once the controller firmware was updated to v2.0 and paired with my Switch 2, I couldn't get the "shake to wake" feature to work. In 8BitDo's updater app there is a "log" for the v2.0 firmware. If you click on it, within the notes is a url to a YouTube video showing the correct way to connect the Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controller to the Switch 2 to get the "shake to wake" feature working (you will need the Switch 2 right Joy-Con to set it up properly). Once the controller's firmware has been updated and properly paired with the Switch 2, 8BitDo's Ultimate 2 becomes the Pro controller that Nintendo should have made! Highly recommended!

If you are like me and are looking for a controller for your Nintendo Switch then you probably are deciding between the 8bitdo ultimate Bluetooth and Kingkong pro 2. After some research, I decided to go with the 8bitdo. Here’s everything I liked and disliked about the controller. PROS -Comes with a charging dock. Having a charging dock is a very nice inclusion as you can just leave the controller on the dock to charge your controller without having to connect a USB cable to the controller. The dock has a white led at the bottom that turns on while charging and turns off when the controller is fully charged. The Kingkong pro 2 on the other hand does not come with a charging dock. -Has Hall effect joysticks. The real selling point of this controller is the Hall effect sticks. If you don’t know what that means then all you need to know is that this controller will not develop stick drift at all. So you can have peace of mind without having to worry about replacing this controller because of stick drift. The kingkong pro 2 also uses the same hall effect sticks, so they are virtually the same when comparing their hall effect sticks. - Can connect with Bluetooth + 2.4ghz Being able to connect this controller with 2.4ghz and Bluetooth means that you are easily able to connect to your pc and Nintendo Switch and also switch between them seamlessly. There is a switch in the back of the controller that switches between the 2.4ghz and Bluetooth and is really useful if you use this controller between your pc and Nintendo Switch. The connection process was also very easy and I had no disconnects while using Bluetooth or 2.4ghz. -Build quality The build quality is very nice and doesn’t feel cheap at all and feels sturdy. Triggers, d-pad, buttons, and joystick feels nice. If you take care of this controller then this controller will last for a very long time. - Back paddles The 8-bitdo controller has back paddles that you can remap with any button that is on the controller or it can be used to make a macro if you want through the 8bitdo software either through the app on your pc or phone. To be honest I don’t use the back paddles too much but it is nice to have and might be useful in some games where you need to do repetitive string button presses. Something to keep in mind is that if you play any competitive games in a tournament like Smash Bros, this controller may be banned because of the use of macros. But this applies to a small portion of people, so don’t worry about it too much. - Software The 8bitdo software is pretty well designed and you can adjust the dead zones for the sticks and triggers, remap the buttons, add up to three different profiles for different games, adjust vibrations, calibrate the controller, and as mentioned previously make macros. Keep in mind that it’s important to update your controller to the latest software as this fixes a lot of bugs and allows you to calibrate the controller. CONS -Controller grip The way the controller is shipped makes it a little uncomfortable to hold but I was able to adjust to it fine. But this could be a deal breaker for some people as having an uncomfortable grip can make playing with the controller unbearable after long sessions. But this varies from person to person, for me, it’s no longer an issue. -No NFC support If you have a bunch of amiibos and scan them then sorry to say but this controller does not support that. I don’t use amiibos at all so this is hardly an issue plus you can just use a joycon to scan an amiibo but this is something that would’ve been nice to have. -No hd rumble The controller does not have hd rumble, so if you play a game that uses it like Splatoon 3 then the Rumble won’t be as good as a controller that has hd rumble. -No gyro support Similarly, this controller does not support gyro, so if you use gyro a lot then that's something else to keep in mind. - No easily customizable buttons What I mean by no easily customizable buttons is that this controller does not allow you to easily switch the bayx layout to a traditional abxy layout. But it isn’t impossible to do either. In order to do it you need to partially disassemble the controller and reassemble the buttons in the order you want it. It would’ve been nice to have an easier way to remove the buttons. Despite the cons of the controller none of them were a real deal breaker to me as it's mostly features that I don’t care about or would hardly use. Although. the kingkong pro 2 does fix a few of these issues like the controller grip, NFC support, gyro support, and easily customizable buttons. But it’s important to do your own research on that and see if the Pro 2 is the controller for you. I don’t have experience with the Pro 2 so I can only tell you some of the features that it has by looking at the product page and other reviewers. The best advice I can give is that if you like what you see about the Kingkong pro 2 and you're looking for a controller to use only for the Nintendo Switch then go for the Kingkong pro 2 but if you plan on using the controller on pc as well on the Nintendo Switch then definitely go for the 8bitdo.
