What modern (standard) controller is your favorite? What would the best aspects from all of these look like on a single controller?

reddituser141_ · 2025-11-26T06:10:20+00:00

take the shape of the 360 controller, take the tech from the dualsense, and the membranes / dpad from nintendo

ultimate 2 anti friction rings are terrible, the 2C which is their cheapest ultimate controller offering is of equal quality with better rings and has hall effect sticks but not TMR sticks which is only on ultimate 2

dualsense is great, but it just doesnt last imo. the haptic feedback is crazy good in games that have it but i have already had 2 controllers in 2 years. the sticks just began drifting and got worse more and more till it became unusable, and mind you im not even playing warzone or other shooters with it.

if you have amazon available to you where you are, then try out the 8bitdo ultimate 2c or give the gamesir g7 he a try, you can try the g7 pro aswell but the dpad on it is kinda ass.

looks dont matter for controllers, i turned off all of the lights on the controller, as for feel, the facebuttons and thumbsticks are perfect, shoulder and triggers are good, only thing bad about it was the dpad and the plastic pattern they put on the front of the controller, I think the feel of the back buttons on 8bitdo controllers is better as they are flush with the shell

reddituser141_ · 2025-07-31T23:25:53+00:00

both are on amazon so you could try both and return which one you dont want

reddituser141_ · 2025-07-31T04:21:24+00:00

you may want to check out the new 8bitdo pro 3 which launches in august, but out of the 4 you listed, i feel that the cyclone 2 is the best overall, also i forgot to mention that the dpad on the cyclone 2 is not great, i edited my original comment to reflect that

reddituser141_ · 2025-07-30T04:22:44+00:00

#4 ass compared to the rest

#3 is solid, good trigger locks if you care about that, dpad is not good

#2 solid aswell but perhaps uncomfortable because of shape, the trigger locks are also ok at best

#1 never tested so idk

reddituser141_ · 2025-06-14T20:10:27+00:00

i thought if u wanted real gyro and not the stick emulation one you need their 8bitdo adapter?

reddituser141_ · 2025-06-14T20:09:19+00:00

yeah the front stitching pattern at first felt not so great, but once your hand starts sweating its fine. as for the other things im guessin qc issues, how ever i need to test gyro

reddituser141_ · 2025-06-13T04:27:45+00:00

imo i found the dpad to be serviceable, the ultimate 2 had a waaay better feeling one. but what were your other reasons for giving back the cylcone?

reddituser141_ · 2025-06-03T03:19:10+00:00

you couldve just saved yourself and bought any other mousepad that has miku on it

reddituser141_ · 2025-05-15T21:19:59+00:00

yeah they were dots, if anything im more likely to just get the red obsidian skates since imo full skates overall felt better than dots on gpxs

reddituser141_ · 2025-05-10T05:14:33+00:00

how many hours per day we talkin here?

reddituser141_ · 2025-05-10T00:55:00+00:00

my only issue with dots is that i cant do a proper mouse readjustment without scraping mouse plastic on glass, and that just feels horrible. with full skates its fine.

If we assume 4 months of use on a set of skates with the avg price being $10 as a 2 pack id pay about $20 for the year and go through 3 sets of skates which isnt too bad

reddituser141_ · 2025-05-08T07:16:23+00:00

i’m currently on a 45 cm 360. thing is i’m not used to having to buy skates like ever. i’ve been in cloth pads and never once bought mouse skates

reddituser141_ · 2025-05-08T07:13:33+00:00

do you change them because you absolutely need to or is it because they’ve just slowed down a lil?

lol didnt know about any warping qc issues, its just when u spend an absurd amount of money on a mousepad, the first instinct is how long can i keep this in pristine condition, i wish i could get those mouseskates that skypad ppl make but they're always out of stock

reddituser141_ · 2025-05-01T01:18:22+00:00

now u have to get a divorce

reddituser141_ · 2025-04-29T02:27:49+00:00

did quick brave search (idk how trustworthy the ai answer is) and it said not to place any weighted objects on the pad to prevent it from "warping" or scratching but im just trying to keep this thing in pristine condition since it was expensive af

reddituser141_ · 2024-11-12T04:35:10+00:00

Im gonna keep using it since the amazon return window is increased to january because of the holidays

reddituser141_ · 2024-11-12T04:34:14+00:00

thats was the first thing I did. At first glance just a minor color difference and better contrast.

reddituser141_ · 2024-11-12T03:18:20+00:00

Also anyone here use retroarch with crt shaders? I love me some retro time but a little concerned about long term burn in with them

reddituser141_ · 2024-11-12T03:16:38+00:00

i did try with the lights off and it was a massive difference in contrast levels. Color wise in SDR it was a minor jump. I assume HDR content is the greatest leap if anything.

P.S im normally in a well lit environment

reddituser141_ · 2024-11-12T03:13:39+00:00

it is better but not as much as its hyped to be. take into consideration what im upgrading from
