ultimate 2c wired controller doesnt work on switch

Why won’t my controller register ?

I have an 8bitdo ultimate 2c that is recognised by all the emulation apps I've tried with it. I did find the process of getting it working pretty frustrating, but it will at least connect for games

I'm exhausted trying to get things to work on Linux

Not sure if I get all the complaints here. Moving from systemd boot to Grub are just a few commands, and any other troubles are probably caused by specific configurations. Not that I'm arguing against diving in and customizing, but if it is that much trouble - Is it worth it? It boots as is right? I

I'm exhausted trying to get things to work on Linux

I only just barely got MO2 to launch after days of learning things and trying things that doesn't work. Getting MO2 working with Oblivion was a little all over the place for me as well. I believe I used SteamTinkerLauncher to finally get it in a place I could use on both Steam Deck and my Linux desk

Best quality wireless controller?

I have an 8bitdo pro2 controller which is Bluetooth only. This seemed to work pretty well for me. I then paired a PS4 controller to do multiplayer and I started to have issues. Figured it was because of two Bluetooth devices on the system. I rushed ordered 2x 8bitdo ultimate 2c controllers because t

[Leak] Steam Controller Pre-Orders coming soon. Available for $99.

I just got an Ultimate 2C (my first 8BitDo controller) and the only Steam game it works horribly with is my favorite Steam game :( I guess it's hit or miss.

People don't know what the Steam Controller is

I don't really like the fact that most games don't have ps icons in game. I own a hall effect modded Dual Sense and an 8Bitdo Ultimate 2C. Even though Dual Sense is better, I don't use it for every game. For example Resident Evil 4 has ps interface so I played it with Dual Sense but Yakuza: Like a D
