I love Anthony, he's so comfortable and good in videos now. I remember one of the very first videos he was in and you could tell how stressed, nervous and uncomfortable he was at first glance 😅

Anthony almost, ALMOST, says "i run arch, btw"

[TheOnlyTwitchR]

I Own almost the entire 8BitDo lineup. They're very 1st party feeling controllers. Its a VERY Rare thing.

[WDCallahan]

20 hours of play, 4 hour charge.. perfect! That's the day.

[TRXtushar]

Two Anthony videos in a day, it must be Christmas

7:06 It says 0 because you're not setting a deadzone. You're scaling the range by moving the zero-point.

"I'm sure I can find something that would make him upset about it."
Lol. Everyone at LMG mocks their boss.

Closed captions: Capacity is a thousand million powers.
Me: Sounds about right.

Pre-ordered back when it first launched. Worth it, hands down best controller I've ever used in over 30 years of gaming.

"I am not a fan boy or anything, I run Linux" damn

[MadSpacePig]

0:47 Putting Steam on the box isn't redundant. Steam has a list of controllers that it supports for full remapping.

[AssailantLF]

12:44 Linus: "Not all my B's are going through..." (while he's trying to swim out of the water)

This just in: Linus doesn't know how to play Super Mario World and blames his controller.

[FrickDude]

This thing looks sweet! Thank you very much for showing these. I've been very curious about the 8BitDo controllers but they are expensive so I didn't want to pull the trigger on purchasing without a quality review like this. Thank you!

12:09 The controller can hold 3 custom profiles + the default profile, standard, out of the box. That means you can change profiles on the fly without the software. The button in between the sticks is the profile button. The lights above it show which profile you are using. No lights = Default profile.

[vdfritzz]

12:19 there are 3 profiles for each mode, you can do what you just said you wanted to do, the little button in the midle does that

[Originalimoc]

Their general wireless receiver is awesome too, can interchangeably use any controller on any USB gamepad supported devices.

[Hotlog]

I really like the plastic texture on my Pro+ GB version. Feels like the 90's to me. For $50 you get a pretty good controller that has caveats, but it's all about the D-pad!

[timathypotato]

I have the pro plus and it is by far my favorite modern controller. Anthony's comments about the analog sticks are weird because they are the exact same modules as the xbox and playstation controllers. The difference in feel is entirely due to the stick cap (the part you touch). It's pretty easy to swap in xbox or playstation sticks if you want.
