This isn't a joke product though, for emulating anything up to 16 bit this controller's quality competes well with the first party controllers. You don't so much need heft or grips without analog sticks you need good quality buttons. While small, these buttons have that good feel. And it fits a niche of something that has similar functionality to a single joycon but with a dpad instead of a stick, and that's a niche some people want

It's the perfect portable controller for me! I have a Dualschock 4 at home but whenever I'm going somewhere and feel like playing a level of Sonic, I can just take this out of my pocket, connect it to my phone and run some emulation.

In case someone didn't know this, While the Zero 2 has a D-pad, it actually is the left stick of a normal controller which means that you can play games like smash with it. Games that require a "real D-pad" or the right stick does not work though.

The small size, low cost and number of platforms supported makes this a pretty neat option for controller mods. I've been meaning to retrofit an old Amiga joystick into something more modern for use with emulators. One of these would easily fit in there. It's pretty much cheaper buying one of these than trying to source all parts for a DIY solution.

That controller is adorably tiny. I kinda want to get one but, if I'm being honest, it would get no use in my household.

"Here's your controller bro."

Loved this detail breakdown! Does it look like I can switch the position of the A and B button when you took it apart?

pretty cool design

it should have been called "Frodo's handheld"

I appreciate the fact that they would actually do something like this, but their Lite controller is the smallest I'll go. I have that one and the SN30 Pro+. (The SN30 Pro+ is my favorite third party controller too.)

thanks. this is probably the best review for this controller. looking for a basic snes layout for travel with my tablet. might be a bit too small. thanks

I thought "8bitdo" was based off "Nintendo", and since that's a japanese name you're supposed to pronounce it as "doh" (just one vowel sound, unlike the "ou" pronuntiation that's so common in english). Then again, english can be a clusterfuck when it comes to phonetics and people are gonna pronounce it whichever way regardless of what anyone says. Especially americans, who get pretty irritable when someone tries to correct their pronuntiation and will go for the wrong pronuntiation on purpose just out of spite.

It's really smarter than everybody can think. Sure they made these mini controllers to match the Switch concept first and clearly for using on the go. More comfortable than a joy-con and the D pad is here. It can fits in a pocket compare to standard pro controller. Like it :)

I feel like these are perfect for little kids and trying to teach them a simpler game!

In find that 8bitdo controllers are always way more comfortable than you think they're going to be from their appearance. I just got my Zero 2 and it's surprisingly comfortable for anything that doesn't use the shoulder buttons too frequently. And it's fun to use too, the light weight actually makes it feel nice too. And my Pro 2 also from 8bitdo kind of looks like a weird cross between a SNES and PS1 analog controller, but man, once in the hand it's uncanny how comfortable it is.

I've had the same experience with 8bitdo controllers. I originally got the SN30 Pro (the one with the analogue sticks, but without the grips) and that was an absolute dream. Then when I got the Pro + (with the grips) my wife ended up keeping it and using it a lot with her family. For Mario Kart and Mortal Kombat mostly. I'm just about to pick up one of these because we're occasionally short by just one controller, so I'll just stick this thing in the carry case so I always have it ready to go
