8Bitdo Retro Receiver for PS1, PS2 & Windows, Compatible with Xbox Series Controller, Xbox One Bluetooth Controller, Switch Pro and PS5/PS4 Controller

Doses what it says.

Bought this on a whim, not expecting much. Now, I couldn’t love without it.Easy to setup/connect, being able to use modern controllers means you no longer have to put up with the extremely inaccurate standard ps2 analog sticks. I had no idea how much of a difference this would make but games like time splitters and gran turismo 4 benefit massively from the extra sensitivity and accuracy, making the games feel far more intuitive. No latency issues that I can notice, not sure of the polling rate but everything feels snappy and responsive. Stop using those awful small inaccurate ps2 controllers and use your preferred modern wireless controllers to play your beloved classic titles.

Worth the money

I tried this with multiple controllers and games. Seems to work for the most part, except I encountered an issue on Spyro 2 where Spyro would walk on his own, without any controller inputs. I tried using both a PS5 and Xbox One controller, but both had the same issue. Disappointing, as the main reason I wanted this was to play Spyro 2. If you just want to play other games though, it seems to work fine.

This 8Bitdo product does exactly what it says on the tin. I‘be very easily been able to connect my PS5 controller to the PS2 and have encountered no issues while doing so. The controller works seamlessly with no lag on the console.Pros:. Very easy to pair a controller to the device.. Works well without lag.. PS5 controller compatibility.. Slots straight into the PS2 controller port.Cons:. I didn’t realise that this device had to be charged before use. However, a USB-C cable is included, and the charge on the device lasts a very long time.Overall, highly recommend this product to anybody wanting to utilise their current wireless controllers over buying a new wired PS2 controller.I look forward to trying some other 8Bitdo products in the future!

It does as it says on the title and more..any Bluetooth controller can connect to the 8bitdo adapter.I’m currently using a PS5 controller on the adapter but you can use anything else like8bitdo Bluetooth controllersXbox one and series S/X controllersPS4 controllersPS3 controllersThe process was simple and quick to do.One major downside to wireless controllers you are unable to tell how much battery life you have left while playing a game so you have to keep charged up before playing a game.PS1 games is so much easier to play now, you don’t have to use the D-pad you can now use the left analog stick to navigate around.Playing the original DOOM and Command And Conquer feels so much normal now.Vibration still works when playing PS2 games but I have noticed some PS2 games will not have vibration when the 8bitdo adapter is in use but I have checked in game settings the vibration is on but still not working.Here’s a sample of games play with and without vibration.Area 51 worksCall Of Duty Finest Hour worksConflict Desert Storm 2 NOT workingGrand Theft Auto San Andreas workingMidnight Club 2 worksNeed For Speed Most Wanted NOT workingMedal Of Honor Frontlines worksStar Wars Episode 3 worksStar Wars Battlefront 2 works

I received the item today. It was sold as new but as you can see from the pictures it's scratched as if it has been used? Perhaps a return or something.
