Pro 3

Eh, wouldn't say that his statement is untrue either. It depends on the specific controller and the games you play. I've had 3 8bitdo controllers over the years: sn30 pro (1st version which looked more like a snes controller), pro 2 wired controller and pro 3 in gamecube colorway. Sn30 pro has VERY

I bought an 8bitdo pro 3 and I gotta say I'm not happy with it. First one I returned but both have the same issues. Both the thumb pad and the analog sticks are inaccurate. I can not get a consistent single direction on either. I use it on my switch and the switch pro is just a better controller.
