What controller are you using with the Deck?

My pick after searching around is the 8BitDo Ultimate C (link) which is the cheaper version of the ultimate with no dock. So far, it’s been working well for me. I just had to restart the Deck the first time after the pairing, since then, it recognize the device all the time.

    I use my leftover Stadia controllers. RIP.

    But for my son I got an 8bitdo Lite 2 because it’s smaller and easier for him to hold. Works great.

      Damn… I totally forgot about stadia. I feel like it made so much noise then suddenly vanished without a trace…

        It’s amazing because GFN is still going strong and Microsoft is really pushing their cloud gaming platform. Stadia was just horribly mismanaged.

          It’s the google classic:

          1. Have an awesome idea

          2. Go crazy on development

          3. Gain a loyal userbase

          4. ???

          5. Inspire hope

          6. ???

          7. Seperate entirely

      8bitdo Lite 2

      I can vouch for this one. I use it at work to play Pokemon on my phone without having to hold my phone. I just keep the controller in my jacket pocket lol

      Also using my Stadia controller here, they work great but I wish they had the ability to remotely wake the OLED Deck…

      I still have no clue which controllers do and don’t (aside from the Stadia controller) support the feature.
