8Bitdo Zero 2 Mini Bluetooth Gamepad for Switch Windows Android MacOS Steam Raspberry Pi (Pink)

This thing is weird! It would be connected to my computer and working fine at times and then it would suddenly stop working and when i try to reconnect it, my computer asks for a code to pair. I hate this thing!

I have a lot of games for my Nintendo Switch. I’m predominantly a joy-con user, but I needed an alternative because my joy-cons wear out over and over again and I’m sick of needing to replace them multiple times per year. My Switch gets a lot of use. About half of my games use very simple controls, and do not have rumble, but require reliable inputs. This controller fits the bill! I have small hands, so a normal pro controller is uncomfortable. This fits in my hands wonderfully. I love it. It’s very reliable for inputs, it’s very comfortable for my hands, and it’s pink!! According to my Nintendo Year in Review, most of my time is spent on retro gaming anyway, and this is perfect for NES, SNES, and Sega games on NSO. Here are the main games I use this with: Overcooked Sonic Mania Plus NSMBUD Super Mario Maker 2 Sonic Origins NES SNES Sega Genesis Plus a lot of ported, third-party games for cozy days. I like this controller!

perfect controller and paired easily. great for anki’s!!!

I love it!! Idk how the others work but for my ipad and iphone, all i had to do is connect it to the bluetooth and add the gamepad settings on the anki app. I did use and follow someone’s tutorial on youtube since i have a windows PC. I took one star because the letter buttons seemed to be switched up on mine and it took me a while to fully understand which one is which. But function wise, i really love it!! On this game pad, my A and B buttons are switched and my X and Y buttons are also switched. I initially thought it was an error on my pc, but it turns out the gamepad was also showing the same controls on both ipad and iphone😆 I’m realizing i don’t have to use this for just Anki cards but for many functions so it will be beneficial for those who rely on mini buttons! Plus the idea of holding a gamepad sounds and looks cool! I have not checked the battery life since I just got this. I have charged it so hopefully it stays longer. The instructions did say to use the START button and hold it for 8 seconds to force off the controller.

Works great, had to watch a YouTube video to set it up but loves it !

does the job, I use it for Anki. I have to re-pair the bluetooth with my computer pretty frequently but it's easy enough to do
