After some research I’ve narrowed down my options into these two controllers.

Use-case:

  • Mostly PC gaming (It Takes Two, PS2 Emulation, etc.), Android Gaming (probably Emulation as well).
  • Also my little brother has a Switch and it would be awesome to have another controller for that as well.

Why these two?

  • They are available locally (Philippines) and within the budget.
  • Both have Hall Effect Joysticks
  • Both have good reviews and hopefully have good build quality

Why am I leaning towards 8bitdo Ultimate?

  • Mostly because I think they are the same but 8bitdo has the back buttons.

Give me Reasons Why I Should Get the Gulikit KingKong 2 over the 8bitdo Ultimate

    I got the 8bitdo pro 2 and it’s able to do custom settings over USB ^^ How often do you want to change the profiles?

      my understanding was that you could only use the xInput configuration with the dongle, and the wii-configuration with bluetooth

        Not with the Pro 2 at least ^^ I connect it up and press the profile button and it works. One thing I did not like was that I could not map the back buttons to other keyboard presses, just default buttons already on the controller. But might have been mistaken in that.
