All compatible with Switch. Release date is Holiday 2017.

https://www.destructoid.com/the-swi...ck-with-8bitdo-s-new-controllers-442581.phtml

Along with the retro aesthetic, these newer pads will have support for USB-C, force feedback (rumble) and even motion controls! Now you really won't need a Switch Pro Controller for Breath of the Wild, which is just awesome.

SNES30/SFC30 Pro ($49.99):

NES30 Fight Stick:

Going all in on Switch. Nice.

Triforce141 · Jun 13, 2017

I wish they made Sega Genesis / Mega Drive controllers

soultron · Jun 13, 2017

Wow. They don't look very comfortable. :|

loudbill · Jun 13, 2017

They look great! I've heard the build quality on them is excellent. But i'd like to see some sega controllers, preferably a model 2 saturn controller.

nubbe · Jun 13, 2017

Finally a SFC30 Pro

antibolo · Jun 13, 2017

Gonna need to know what buttons and stick they use.

zephervack · Jun 13, 2017

God I love this company, their firmware support has been stellar.

prateeko · Jun 13, 2017

Never used any of their hardware before, how does it feel/compare to first party and other third party controllers?

Bjoern the Smexy · Jun 13, 2017

I'm gonna get one of each controller and the fight stick.
They look sick beyond belief. So goooooood.

IrishNinja · Jun 13, 2017

man, putting dual analogs on the SFC looks kinda ugly but I wanna try it

Altered Juice · Jun 13, 2017

LaserHawk · Jun 13, 2017

OH MY GOODNESS I want that SNES controller!

It looks like my nifty NES30 Pro but with the comforting shape of the SNES controller.

Fuzzy · Jun 13, 2017

They should've copied the NES Advantage look for the fight stick.

Bob White · Jun 13, 2017

How much is the arcade stick?

Chinbo37 · Jun 13, 2017

Did they fix the dead zone issue

broncobuster · Jun 13, 2017

Some grips on the SFC30 Pro would've been nice but I'll end up picking one up for a raspberry pi.

top, thankfully not side-by-side again

A mutual of mine at the booth just tweeted this out to me:

JusDoIt · Jun 13, 2017

Sanwa parts on that stick? If so and it's less than $150, I might cheat on Hori.

Tailzo · Jun 13, 2017

Please make a sega saturn clone

NOLA_Gaffer · Jun 13, 2017

Can we get a proper NES style wireless controller? Please?

They haven't announced a price point yet. Will update when they do.

Azuardo · Jun 13, 2017

Are the X and Y buttons on the multi-coloured SNES pad concaved like the original US SNES pad? Looks like it. And that turns me off if so.

Edit: above image suggests otherwise, hopefully!

Lunarwhale · Jun 13, 2017

SFC Pro looks like a hot mess, but the arcade stick looks kinda nifty. Would hop on an SFC or SNES inspired version.

Shouldn't be - I got a normal SFC30 recently and they're convex like the other buttons (and, as an aside, the controller and SNES wireless adapter are both fantastic).

Rain City Gamer · Jun 13, 2017

I am still bummed about my N64 8bitdo controller not being patched to work with Switch.

Will add to OP. Thanks!

Mista Koo · Jun 13, 2017

I wonder which would be more comfortable this or NES30/FC30 Pro. Shoulder buttons especially.

Adam_Roman · Jun 13, 2017

Good lord I need that.

wanders · Jun 13, 2017

Fuck I just bought some nes30 pro controllers.

I like the details in the battery indicator, synch button etc are like the switch

Heavy Iron Industries · Jun 13, 2017

Cheaper than the official Pro controller? if so, im coppin.

Dinjoralo · Jun 13, 2017

That SNES30 Pro looks simultaneously beautifully nostalgic, and disgustingly disjointed at the same time. I want it.

I also want that arcade stick... Damn, that looks pretty.

Entropia · Jun 13, 2017

Damn those SNES ones look kind of slick.

Curious what they actually feel like.

ADS · Jun 13, 2017

Any word if they've fixed the d-pad on these?

The old ones had poorly designed contacts which caused them to be really sensitive on the diagonals:

http://forum.8bitdo.com/thread-446-1-1.html

I own one of the older ones and really regret buying it, but I'm totally on board with a new one if they fix this.

Rodney McKay · Jun 13, 2017

I'll be interested if these have improved the buttons and d-pad over the FC30 Pro I used to own.

That thing had really unsatisfying feedback on the dpad and buttons, so much so I ended up returning it not long after getting it.

Thats too bad to hear. My pro controller has an overly sensitive dpad and I was thinking this might be good to get a decent dpad.

Thread isn't working on my end - any word on which controllers were affected by this?

Danneee · Jun 13, 2017

God damn at that beautiful stick! Shame I really don't need one, that SNES PRO though...

Slayven · Jun 13, 2017

I wonder how these will work for modern games, I kinda of want to get one for the PC replace this old 360 controller

RobotHaus · Jun 13, 2017

In it for my RetroPi setup. These look perfect. Any pricing announced?

Nope. As for release date, all I've found says they're coming around the holiday.

The hyperkin 6 button genesis wired pad is doing alright for me at the moment. I'm waiting for 8bit to make one too

katsubento · Jun 13, 2017

I just bought the SNES ones.

Sonic Rift · Jun 13, 2017

I like the addition of a home button for the Switch. Very smart move.

Astarte · Jun 13, 2017

That stick is just a reskinned venom stick tho

Fancolors · Jun 13, 2017

This is good news. I have the FC30pro and was considering ordering a second for MP. I will wait for the SNES30pro then because the triggers look a lot more comfortable on it.

Mihael Mello Keehl · Jun 13, 2017

Definitely buying that SNES one. These things have motion control in them!

ADS · Jun 13, 2017

It looks like their forums are down or they've been removed entirely, I can't hit it either now.

Not sure which of their controllers are affected, I only know the SNES30 I own definitely has the problem, some games are fine but anything that relies on precise diagonals (Contra especially) is really tough to play without inadvertent inputs.

Foxy the Fox · Jun 13, 2017

>tfw yesterday you bought two Pro 8bitdo controller for your switch.

Feels bad, man.

WordAssassin · Jun 13, 2017

Shit.

Please, please bring out a new NES controller like this. They need to be updated with the shoulder buttons and home buttons. I like the SNES controller and all but the NES is the color scheme and design I like the most.
