GENKI x 8BitDo PocketPro Portable Wireless Game Controller with Hall Effect Joysticks Rumble, Gyro, USB-C Cable Gamepad for Portable Consoles, Switch, Windows, Mac OS, Android, Steam Deck

One of 8bitDo's best designs to-date, with Hall Effects sticks, combined with the colorless clear shell that so many of us have wanted for years; what's not to love about this controller? The button colors did/do kind of confuse me, as my mind kept subconsciously trying to affiliate them with some pattern from a known 1st party controller. But, as far as I know, they simply don't match a known pattern; none that I've found, anyway.Not a big deal at all though, as one can easily open the shell and rearrange the buttons in whatever pattern they like (the PS pattern is easy to achieve with the button colors it comes with). Or one could grab a new set of C-Buttons from 8bitDo's website (/collections/repair-parts), if they really wanted some with double-shot symbols. They are priced extremely reasonably! And while you're there, I would consider throwing a GB-themed D-Pad in your cart too; as its feel is superior to the SNES-themed D-Pad, imo.You have to be a little more careful with transparent hard-plastics than you do with opaques, because they are a little more brittle. Something to do with how they achieve transparency.. Especially when the ambient temp is colder.And I can't confirm this yet but, I would not be surprised to find that one could tint this clear shell with their own color, by applying RIT dye (the type meant for synthetic materials) to the inside of the shell and setting it with low-heat from a hair-dryer, then rinsing away the excess. Of course tinted transparent paint, applied to the inside of the shell, would probably work too, with less risk.Anyway, this controller is pure, unadulterated 'win', imo! If you like the transparent look, I highly recommend picking up a pair of these (one as a backup, just in case it turns out to be limited-time only).

basically the 8bitdo sn30 pro, rebranded (which is a good thing, best travel/pocket-sized controller on the market). love the faceless buttons (less confusion when switching between different inputs).at first, ran into some quality control issues (unresponsive left d-pad on first order, right stick mechanism shifting underneath stick on second order), but after contacting genki through their official website, managed to get things sorted out and received one that works properly now.

This is fantastic and in clear so that's exciting. I got it to play some diablo immortal on my phone and it works like a charm! Only thing I'm missing is the letters for the buttons, but that doesn't bother me much.

Love this thing. Feels quality. Connects easy and quickly.

Nothing i can think of

I own the original SN30 and SF30 pro controllers and the only upgrade of this controller is the hall effect joysticks. The joysticks accuracy is the same, the input latency is pretty much the same, but the controller is still a great controller for retro gaming. The dpad definitely mimics the original SNES controller and that goes for the buttons too. The controller is definitely great for retro games and is capable of playing modern games thanks to the joysticks and extra right and left buttons. Over a great controller for retro gaming.

This controller met my needs. I'm able to pair it with my Nintendo Switch or my PC pretty easily. Buttons feel nice, and the color scheme is cool! decent size, if you are looking to play old school games or j-rpg's, this is a good bet.

I got two of these 8bitdo gamepads in my bag with my Aya Neo 2 handheld
