It works out of the box for Linux with Bluetooth and the provided 2.4ghz dongle.
To make it work with the Nintendo Switch :
-You need to buy another dongle "8Bitdo Adapter 2"
-Update the firmware of the controller and that "8Bitdo Adapter 2"
-In the sowftware updater, you need to go to About and activate allow BETA firmware checkbox
-Then manually update the controller and the "8Bitdo Adapter 2"
-To pair the controller with the "8Bitdo Adapter 2", set the controller to Bluetooth (not 2.4)
-Pairing with the switch is a matter of trying over and over again until it works.
-Pairing with switch is always difficult no matter the controller, so be patient.
-After multiple plug/unplug and switch reset, I managed to make it work on OLED and LCD Switch.
-Once paired, it always works, so no more pain... ever.
All the buttons of the Switch map correctly, but the LZ and RZ are not mapped (because they don't exist), only the L and R.
This is the most comfortable controller ever made.
The feeling is very arcade, like you are actually playing on a real arcade cabinet.
You need to try this joystick with the clicky direction (everything click here) before dying.
I tested it with platformer and shmups and this is the perfect joystick for that.
Just by the feel I know that with that joystick, you will never miss a fireball in fighting game.
Actually this joystick may be a fighting game cheat or god mode.
Nothing is explained here and the manual is useless.
There is a fantastic TURBO / AUTOFIRE, just hold the star button while pressing the desired button and voila! Same thing to disable the turbo. With that you can finally take your vengence on some games.
I ordered another one immediately, a special King Of Fighter edition only sold on 鶹.com
I have been dreaming about this controller for 30 years now, I could never afford the Neo-Geo CD.
I may buy all the special edition, just to make sure that I have this joystick for the rest of my life.
Buy this controller, because it has a unique feel and once you ajust to it, you will always wanna play with it. This is something that every gamers must experience.
