  • While I love 8bitdo, unfortunately I just dont find the Ultimate to be comfortable to use, and that will be the same with the sequel. I do, however, absolutely love my Pro 2. Its shaped like a SNES controller with handles and it is somehow the most comfortable controller I’ve ever used. it is the only controller with both analog sticks low that I find comfortable and yet it is more comfortable than all x-box styled controllers I’ve used. If they made a new version of that with 2.4ghz, TMR sticks, and updated all of their controllers to actually provide every function available in d-input mode at once for better customization, then it would be the perfect controller for me.

    I did recently get the gamesir cyclone 2, and that is also an incredible controller. All it is missing feature-wise is that fully featured d-input mode, and an easy Bluetooth mode switch like the pro 2 has. The analog sticks are outstanding on it, but unfortunately the dpad just can’t compete with 8bitdo. Again though, the cyclone 2 and pro 2 are overall incredible controllers for different reasons.

    I go into ranked modes to chill with games I enjoy. Why? I am (in games with a good ranking system) placed into games with others who play at about my skill level, which makes the game more fun - and I can usually play a full game in ranked, whereas people are more likely to quit early or just not try at all in quick play modes. Do people complain if I’m not meta? Sometimes, sure - but I just think about how they’re still the same rank as me anyways and I don’t sweat it too much. Its fun.





  • PineTime has been the only watch I’ve liked since my pebble, but it is a downgrade to my overall experience. If I want a good battery life (great, even) I can’t have an always on screen, and I miss the physical buttons for interacting without looking. The vibration motor is solid, though.

    I will miss my 28 day long battery when I leave it. Hopefully a new pebble can achieve a similar battery life.
