8Bitdo Ultimate Wired Controller

Update: Amazon just knocked the black mode down to a new all-time low at $28.69, matching our previous mention not he white variant. 

Amazon is now offering the 8Bitdo Ultimate Wired Controller in white black for $28.69 shipped. Regularly $35, this is nearly 20% off the going rate and the best we can find. Today’s deal is slightly below our previous mention and the lowest we have tracked on Amazon for the white model – this comes within cents of the best on the black variant. Not to be confused with the older Pro 2 Wired Controller that is also now on sale, the Ultimate model on tap here today launched last summer at $35 and has only seen a few price drops since. Features include the usual thumbsticks, D-Pad, face buttons, and triggers alongside a pair of pro back paddle buttons and compatibility with Windows 10 and up, Android, Nintendo Switch, and more. From within the Ultimate software, users can adjust the hair trigger sensitivity, vibration amount, and save custom button maps across three profiles. More details right here and down below. 

If the 8Bitdo pedigree and customization options aren’t getting you excited, something like this basic PowerA Wired Controller for Nintendo Switch can save you some cash. It’s hard to imagine it feeling as nice in your hands as the 8Bitdo model above, but at $17 Prime shipped, if you’re not overly picky about the details here and are just looking for a spare gamepad, it is less pricey.
