8Bitdo’s Pro 2 Switch, PC, and Mac Bluetooth Controller drops to $40 in all three colorways

Update: Amazon is also now offering the 8BitDo Sn30 Pro Bluetooth Gamepad in classic gray for Switch, PC, macOS, Android, Steam, and Raspberry Pi for $34.99 shipped. This one is geared towards the aforementioned as opposed to mobile cloud gaming like the model detailed immediately below. Regularly $45, this is the same 22% off and the lowest price we can find. 

Update: The official 8Bitdo Amazon store is now offering its Sn30 Pro for Xbox cloud gaming on Android with the smartphone clip included for $34.99 shipped. Regularly $45, this is 22% off, $1 under our previous mention, and a notable price drop for Xbox cloud gamers using an Android device. 

There’s still time to score a discounted 8Bitdo gamepad for your Switch or multi-platform gaming setup. Amazon is now offering the 8Bitdo Pro 2 Bluetooth Controller for $39.99 shipped in all three colorways. Regularly $50, it launched back in March of last year and is now at the lowest price we can find, matching both our previous mention and the best we have tracked. Not to be confused with the wired model at $35, this one features wireless Bluetooth connectivity to Nintendo Switch, PC, macOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi. The 8Bitdo Ultimate companion software can be leveraged to remap controls, adjust the hair triggers, and customize the vibration settings alongside built-in motion controls and a 20-hour rechargeable battery. Get a closer look in our launch coverage and head below for more. 

As we mentioned above you save a touch more with the wired model, but if you’re going to take that route something from PowerA will be even less. When it comes to wired extra Switch controllers, it is easy to recommend the popular options from PowerA that come in somewhere in the $24 Prime shipped range depending on the style you go for. 

While we are talking Switch, be sure to check out the new additions to the SEGA Switch Online library as well as the now live Nintendo holiday eShop sale. Just after we got another good look at the upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie, Nintendo launched a series of publisher events on the eShop with digital games starting from $2 including Star Wars, DRAGON QUEST, the Mana series, Sonic, and more.
