Bought myself a Purple off aliexpress because for $75, why not?
Purple
Pretty impressed with it already. Feels nice, the dock also has the dongle in it so you can just plug that in to charge/play.
The dongle makes it feel more response than my old controller, and the dongle also means it works no matter what when dualbooting.
I also forgot it has switches to turn the triggers from analogue to digital, which will be a big help in Nightreign. No wondering if you've pulled a trigger enough to do an attack now, you feel the click and know it happened.
And I'm going to program the macro buttons to some annoying button combos for Nightreign, and maybe unassign sprint from the left stick because I kept accidentally pressing it on the old controller
oooo 8bitdo? they do nice things. I have some of their NES/SNES and bought a Sega modkit for His Lordship.
