it just werks
it's actually a nice controller with simple softwarethe swappable sticks are stupid thoughWhy not just change the sensors?
For me, it's the GameSir Tarantula

Using the 8bitdo3 for pretty much my daily use (jrpgs)its fun
>>719625734just got mine today, gonna try it out on maybe hyper dbz or granblue vs or anything.melty blood idk>>719625734
>>719624926Glad this controller brang back hall effect sticks on the market, otherwise it's real crap.
My Xbox One controller's charge port broke after three years of use. My Xbox Series controller got a sticky trigger due to cushion degradation and then right stick drift. A really severe one at that, just after two years of intermittent use. Fuck Microsoft, I'll stick to third party controllers now (oh, yeah, the Switch Pro Controller also got right stick drift. I'm dreading the time when it happens to the DualShock 5 too)
>>719625963>I'm dreading the time when it happens to the DualShock 5 tooIt took 6 months to get stick drift on mine (I played MGR with it).Real pieces of shit.
>>719625937>brang
best controller moving through
i have this one and the usb adapter already broke.bluetooth works well enough.i'd like to buy a new one that has backpaddles but i honestly don't game enough on controller to do so, i have a steam controller and a deck anyway so it's hard to justify buying something new
>>719626116>huge battery pack blocks your fingersNah it's always been shit.
>>719625734To be honest it's quite expensive.70bucks for membrane is a bit too much. Good thing the sticks are TMR.
>>719626369nuh uh no it doesn't

>>719626471>>719628514GOOD MORNINGN GAMESAARS
Will controller threads ever recover from the indian shitposting?
>>719629093nuh huh
>>719625495the sensors are touching the stick. it would be much harder to change and you'd only gain the cost of a little bit of plastic and tubber.>>719625675not all DS3 has hall effect sticks.
>>719625963fix your xbox controller then>>719626134>we have an ouya controller at home
Pro 2 bluetooth - 7/10Ultimate 2C 2.4ghz - 10/10
>>719624759I was considering getting a new 8bitdo Ultimate wireless 2 for use with my steam deck because I want functional back buttons. I current have a vader pro 4 and the first 8bitdo ultimate wireless. It literally took me until today to find out how to put them into Dinput in order make their back buttons functional, rendering the ultimate 2 moot.
>>719624759Anyone know a controller that works with a ps3 with button sensitivity or know if theres a way to buy parts for a ps3ds3 controller
>$30>TMR sticksWhat's the catch?
>>719632550retrofighters defender
>>719632651no back buttonsno extra shoulder buttonsno softwareno 2.4ghz dongleno trigger stopsno ds4 or dinput modes
is the gulikit elves 2 the only budget option for low latency, dpad-centric wireless gaymen? was gonna pick up an 8bitdo pro 2 but the average latency is crazy high
>>719633009I'm talking about issues, not the lack of extra features.
>>719632550AliExpress has cheap DS3 (and other first party controller) replacement parts. Retrofighters Defender is the only modern controller with pressure sensitive buttons that I know of.
It feels like cheap plastic but it doesn't feel fragile. The buttons, dpad, and sticks feel kind of loose and don't take much force to press or move.There's something so comfortable about using it, like it just works and doesn't take you out of the game.
>>719633019You could wait until October for their new model.Basically a Swtich 2 Pro controller, but for 2d games.
>>719633487That raised dpad is an abomination.
>>719633009>no back buttonsBased>no extra shoulder buttonsBased>no softwareBased >no 2.4ghz dongleBased>no trigger stops?>no ds4 or dinput modesDoesn't everything lack this because Sony is a bunch of likesCan you name one controller that comes even close to this with DS4 mode
>>719633487based on gamepadla's testing, yeah, i've either got to go with the elves 2 (which has cramped thumbstick placement for the occasions i do need to use them), or i can wait for the tt pro. surprised there are so few options, but fuck us retro gaymers i guess.
Fuck grips
>>719633723i just know id get horrendous hand cramps with this thing, appealing as it is
The Saturn controller will always be my favorite.
>>719633384I have the original lite in transparent black, it does feels its price, it's light and every button is soft>There's something so comfortable about using itit feels comfy like an already old controller
The Vader Pro 3/4 is great. Not sure why it doesn't get suggested more
>>719634154>it feels like an already old controllerI'm glad I didn't fall for the third party scam.
>>719633384How is the battery life?
I want something that feels and acts like a ps5 controller but with TMR sticks, does such a device exist?
>>719634276Is it one of or maybe even the best controller on the market? Yes.But people don't wanna pay that much for a chinkshit controller
>>719634538>feels and acts like a ps5 controllerYou want something that feels like cheap plastic and has useless features that barely any game supports?
>>719634305This is the cheapest controller available, the more expensive ones probably don't feel like that
>>719634538Yea it's called putting tmr sticks in your ps5 controller
>>719633631I can name a lot more than one.>Gamesir Nova 2 Lite>Gamesir Cyclone 2>Gamesir Super Nova>Gamesir Tarantula Pro>Flydigi Apex 5>Flydigi Apex 4>dinput rather than dualshock, but every other Flydigi>BigBig Won Blitz 2>Fantech Nova Pro (no 2.4ghz)>IINE Bastet (no 2.4ghz)Nova 2 Lite's the same price as ES Pro, but without gyro. Cyclone 2's discounted to $25-35 pretty often.>>719634538Quite literally a PS5 controller with TMR sticks modded in. You don't get the touchpad, haptics, adaptive triggers, or form factor with anything else.
>>719634741The Ultimate 2C is just as cheap and mine still feels like new after having it for 9 months. It doesn't have the trigger stop toggles or the back pedals of the Nova 2 Lite though.
Switch 2 Pro Controller (with better diagonals) would be perfect
>>719635449>no analog triggers
>>719634154>comfy like an already old controlleryeah that's exactly it. normally I'd expect some stiffness at the start and a "break in" period but this feels already familiar.>>719634154I haven't been keeping count but seems to be maybe 6-10 hours. I do need to recharge it every few days.
>>719634276>>719634691>Vader 4The latency on this seems really high.
>>7196360796-10 hours only? Damn.
>>719636079Meant to reply to >>719634380Guessing about 6-10 hours since I need to recharge it every few days.
>>719636220yeah hall effect sticks and a relatively small 600mAh battery
How legit is this gamepadla site?This is sorting by bluetooth latency. And the Gulikit Elves 2 seems to be the best. And it's a 30$ controller.
This is the LAST TIME I'm asking for a controller that doesn't have the Xbox logo... Does one exist!?
>>719636512P82 latency results are accurate for use on the systems the tests are performed on (mostly/entirely Win10/11 PCs), which the site mostly filters for with search and displayed resultsGPDL latency results add something like 1.6ms latency and are mostly accurate for buttons but unreliable for sticksStick latency measures time taken to move from 0% to 99%, data for lesser movements isn't shown anywhere on the site but many controllers with high measured stick latency are responsive for partial movementsFor non-latency info, stick data should be accurate, stick movement linearity is a crap shoot depending on how the test is done and I only confidently trust monoru's results since he has a custom rig for reliably measuring, specifications often have a bunch of incorrect info and you're better off looking at the manufacturer's site or an amazon/aliexpress page.
>>719637787Is there a better and more accurate site to get data from if gamepadla is questionable? >pecifications often have a bunch of incorrect info and you're better off looking at the manufacturer's site or an amazon/aliexpress page.Wouldn't the sellers have incentive to lie to say their controllers are better?
>>719636512>How legit is this gamepadla site?Made by a Ukranian.
>>719638046There's https://rpubs.com/misteraddons/inputlatency as well, but it's not terribly up to date with modern releases, and most people aren't playing on a MiSTer.Specifications section just lists things like whether the controller has membrane or mechanical buttons, gyro, trigger stops, back buttons, etc, the sort of info marketing's accurate for. Most times I've checked gamepadla for that info it's been outright wrong, probably at least partly because that info's crowdsourced there.
>>719638758>Specifications section just lists things like whether the controller has membrane or mechanical buttonsOh, I see what you're saying. I was specifically more talking about just latency stuff. I misread what you were saying.As long as the latency testing is mostly correct that's all I care about.
