Support NeoGAF

[wwm0nkey]

Someone tested it out with dolphin, works over bluetooth with no USB required.

With this having a huge battery life, I am happy I pre-ordered

 

[RobotHaus]

Might have to get a second one now.

Hopefully steam doesn't take as long as they did with ds4 to add support.

 

[Sylverstone14]

I'm happy, but I'm also sad because I got a Steam Controller the other day...

 

[kaioshade]

This will be great to try with my mac. Should end up being my emulator controller of choice.

 

[Kouriozan]

Purchase (even more) reedemed, time to switch that Xbox 360 controller I had for too long now.

 

[forknknife]

Just saw this on reddit. I was going to hold of from the pro but this might change that if the dpad is good. The 360 dpad is worthless.

 

[JetSetRadio]

This is a real positive thread. No spins available.

 

[Skeletos311]

Does it work with USB at all? I think the only BT adapter I have for PC is my Wii U Pro Controller adapter.

 

[Sylas]

Well, shit. Gotta find one now.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Hopefully steam doesn't take as long as they did with ds4 to add support.

Even if it isn't officially added, you can remap any controller now.

 

[Toni]

Good stuff, but I'm good with my DS4.

 

[moltonasty]

damn that's awesome, wonder if it works with the steam link too

 

[Fliesen]

This is great.

I'm using my PS4 Gold headset and my DS4 on the PC. I always disliked the redundancy of having multiple peripherals of the same type for multiple devices.

 

[Vitacat]

Definitely a nice perk.

Too bad about the digital triggers, but that 40 hour battery life is bonkers.

Good stuff, but I'm good with my DS4.

Worst controller of this generation. I say that as a PS4, XB1, PC and soon Switch owner.

Also have the WiiU Pro controller, which is superb, so I'm expecting the Switch Pro to be as good or better.

 

[Imp the Dimp]

Huh that's nice and came out of nowhere lol

70 BUCKS AND I CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE




;]

 

[Triforce141]

..... slowly regretting not getting a Pro Controller now....

 

[phanphare]

RIP Wii U Pro

hopefully PC will be able to take advantage of the gyro because that would be lovely

 

[Sanjuro]

Might be the greatest controller of all time.

 

[L~A]

Well, well, well...

Will wait for more feedback before ordering one, but this would pretty much seal the deal for me.

 

[zroid]

Huh, neat

 

[TheBeebs]

Hmm... does this mean I can connect the DualShock 4 to the Switch?

 

[sixteen-bit]

That's cool, but I'm more interested in the Joycons tbh for that split controller experience.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Definitely a nice perk.

Too bad about the digital triggers, but that 40 hour battery life is bonkers.

Perfect for fighting games which is my number one reason for wanting to use it on PC.

Funtastico!

 

[MUnited83]

They already added support for generic Dinput controllers, which this is probably is recognized as, so it should work right now.

 

[Vitacat]

You make a good point. Won't be great for racers, but for fighters, yes! Also, it would basically be a hair trigger for shooters as well.

 

[forrest]

If only we could get controller standardization for button names and labelling, so that in game prompts would correspond correctly.

Glad to hear the Pro is supported natively. Between 2 DS4, 2 wireless 360 and a Wii U pro controller, I'm amassing a small pc controller army.

 

[enbred]

For people looking, Amazon Japan still has them and they ship worldwide. Shipped to US it's cheaper than local price with tax.

 

[MarkRenton]

For 70 I would hope it did

 

[E_Darkness]

That's pretty great, especially considering the price.

 

[Peterc]

Hope I could replace my xbox one controller with this one for unity.

 

[PeterOliver]

Bluetooth is laggy for game controllers, but I'm glad it at least works here. What we really need are more pc compatible wireless dongled controllers. Gamesir t1s is looking like the best pc controller at the moment when it comes to compatability and robustness of features.

 

[Gestault]

I love that this is becoming pretty standard now. I still tend to just play wired USB on PC, but the option for wireless is a no-brainer if the interface is already there (or would mean pennies in the grand scheme of things).

 

[lyrick]

I know OP said Dolphin, but has it been tried with an native Xbox Controller game?

Are the buttons still mapped to the letter? Where the on screen icons are correct, but the placement is inverted.

 

[bomblord1]

I might have to try to pick one of these up on launch since I couldn't find one to pre-order.

 

[Elfteiroh]

Won't make me stop using my Wii U pro controller with the Mayflash adapter, as I really like the symmetrical sticks, but cool!

 

[Bony Manifesto]

What's the rumble situation on PC? I'm guessing the APIs available now probably won't work with the haptic feedback in the Switch controller.

With the Steam mapping, this doesn't really matter

 

[Regiruler]

Call me when they get it to work with DMC4.

 

[Dinjoralo]

So... That kinda confirms the Switch connects to the different controllers using Bluetooth, right?

Either way, I'd really need to get a gander at the controller before I'd put down that serious money on it. The thing looks rooough.

Its honestly all legit subjective.

I hate the clicky RB/LT or whatever sboulder buttons of Xbox controllers, plus they got asymetrical sticks. Im not on board with that. And furthermore, they dont hold a candle the dualshock's directional pads.

Now the switch Pro controller follows suit with the same asymetrical design and has an even worse d-pad than Xbox One.

Dualshock 4 is almost perfect.

 

[CO_Andy]

does the gyro work?

 

[CarbonFire]

That's nice, but with digital triggers, no thanks.

 

[Fancolors]

I was going to get a ds4, but I guess I'm getting the pro controller

 

[Gestault]

I just realized, this makes the lack of analog triggers hurt that much more.

 

[OricWindstar]

 

[pinkurocket]

Music to my ears.
Though I'll stick to the Wii U Pro controller for PC control for now.

 

[Outrun]

Might be the greatest controller of all time.

Got to knock off the Elite...
