Do not waste your money. It doesn't work its been stuck doing this for hours.
One of my favorite collabs from the last few years, the Genki x 8BitDo Pocket Pro is a compact SNES-inspired controller that feels premium, responsive, and is just really fun to use. This edition has a retro clear but foggy shell with buttons in Genki's brand pastel colors with labels throughout. All together it's just beautiful 😍 The buttons are snappy, the d-pad is old school, chunky but responsive, and the analog sticks are full sized, buttery smooth and use hall effect sensors, so no drift. It's got those rubber select and start buttons down the middle, rounded L and R buttons up top along with triggers with a medium travel distance. But sadly, the triggers are digital, not analog 😭 In 8bitdo fashion, it's multi platform compatible so you can easily jump from the Switch to Android to Steam Deck. Battery life has been solid, about 18hrs+ and it charges via USB-C. You also get gyro/motion controls, rumble, and a turbo function but it sadly doesn't work on the Switch because it's also the screenshot button. Pros: ➕ Beautiful clear shell design with labels throughout ➕ Smooth driftless hall effect sticks ➕ Multi-platform compatible ➕ Pocket Sized yet ergonomic Cons: ➖ Digital triggers (comes down to preference) ➖ Turbo doesn’t work on Switch (screenshot button conflict) ➖ Not compatible with 8bitdo's Ultimate Software
I like this upgraded version for the Nintendo Switch and came in two days. I like the discounted price buying used. Came like new condition
Sent this as a gift to my niece for Christmas. I wrapped it up and gave it to her. She opened the gift and the game cartridge was missing. Highly recommend buying Instore never buy online. Will never buy a physical game on akiya-switch.com ever again! (It forced me to submit a star rating )
Great price! Item arrived TODAY exactly as I expected from my preorder.
Almost everything about these items were great! The only issue I have is that there is a gap in the right joy con cover, as you can see. The cover still stays on just fine, but I really wish it fit perfectly. You have a good product, FANPL, but it would be great if you fixed this flaw. Please fix it!
The game is fun for sure. I do like it and the script is a cool piece to have but when it advertises what it comes with and they don’t include it, it sucks. It never came with the behind the scenes booklet. When I buy these items I expect to get what I pay for. That’s like me only paying $40 when I’m supposed to give the $60. They would want the extra $20, just like I want the booklet. I’m definitely not keeping this. I’d rather buy something where you get everything that’s advertised. akiya-switch.com is pretty good about making things right.
So prior to this I bought a snackbox micro because of the ps5 compatibility and it’s cool, I like it. But if I knew this controller existed I wouldn’t have bothered tbh. this thing has much nicer build quality and customization options than the snack box and if you take some time to update the firmware and mess with the settings, you can get it working with ps5 with no issues without needing an additional dongle 👀 if you’re looking to get into leverless controllers you can’t do much better than this. EDIT: so no, ps5 compatibility isn’t possible without a separate dongle after all, but it’s still a great product
It’s great
arrived late and broken. please refund.
Awesome product. Could be a little cheaper though...
I got this for my 16 yr old niece. She LOVES it! Good quality.
As a N64 owner , I can say these are excellent reproductions of the original style Joy sticks . The size weight and feel are perfect and they are wireless. To connect with the switch is super easy , the instructions to do it are simple and easy to execute. Battery life seems good so far and everything is recognized on the switch console !! IMO great quality for value !!
Thanks for reading my review! Likes about this case: It holds my Pro controller comfortably and I no longer have to pack this separately. The amount of storage for games is also an added plus. The strap is a bonus when you've got other things to hold in your hands and you can wear this over your shoulder. I'm not sure how the artwork was printed on the front but it feels high quality and I don't expect that it'll start coming off with usage. Dislikes: Not many dislikes to share. Although it feels rugged enough, I wouldn't go placing any sort of weight on top of the case for an extended period of time. Bottom line: Very roomy, is lightweight and stylish and easy to carry around. The clam-shell design lends itself nicely to accessing multiple items with the same amount of time. In other words, you spend little time digging around to get to one thing. The design also lends itself to great visual organization. It may sound ridiculous to point this out but the zipper is top-notch! For the price point, this is a winner!
It was a good controller, until the right stick started getting clunky, and yesterday fully broke. Never has been dropped, just regular use for a month.
