The 8BitDo Pro 2 is a comfortable retro controller with a full range of features. It includes a complete button set with clickable joysticks, vibration, gyroscope, Bluetooth, a rechargeable battery, home and screenshot buttons, as well as a USB-C connection. Not to mention a proper D-pad. Compared to its predecessor, the Pro 2 also has two configurable buttons on the back. The Pro 2 is 8BitDo's most advanced controller and comes with the extensive 8BitDo Ultimate Software, which allows complete control over every aspect of the controller: for example, you can configure the button layout, adjust the sensitivity of sticks and triggers, customize the vibration intensity, and create macros for any button combination. You can also create controller profiles and switch between them at any time. The Pro 2 can now store three profiles directly on the controller and switch between them with a dedicated button. 8BitDo controllers are designed to be as versatile as possible with any modern device. You can easily pair the controller as an X-Input or D-Input device via Bluetooth. The Pro 2 now features a dedicated switch for changing between different control modes. With the included cable, you can even use it as a wired USB controller. 8BitDo regularly updates the firmware for enhanced system compatibility, including Switch, Raspberry Pi, Retron5, and more.
