Hi,

8BitDo finally announced a new switch controller with the xbox / switch analog stick layout. I'm was waiting for this for some time now. actually I couldn't wait anymore and got a gulikit kingkong 2 pro. now I'm again in a dilemma because the gulikit is actually very good and I might skip the 8BitDo this time, because there isn't really an upgrade, 8BitDo is just more beautiful. I think 8Bitdo is even using gulikit hall sensors.

the new ultimate 8BitDo controller resembles the wired one but with an 8BitDo logo instead of xbox. frankly dispite being an xbox style controller, withouth the asynchron analog sticks, it would actually more resemble a dualsense controller (the grip and shoulder buttons). this time they going with 3 versions at the same time:

switch version with bluetooth, 2,4ghz mode with dongle and a stand / charging station and all features of the older pro 2 series.

xbox wireless version with only 2,4ghz withouth gyro and a smaller battery.

xbox wired but without xbox logo, not sure why they release this one, if they already got the xbox ultimate controller. the only difference is propably the direct input mode.

I wish they would make an xbox version still with switch connectivity and gyro. because I prefer the xbox layout and I play more pc games than switch.

Now we have a competitor for the KingKong 2 Pro with those Hall Effect Sensor Joysticks, but the KingKong 2 Pro also has two analog Hall Effect Sensing shoulder buttons though.

But anyway, the black 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller looks very nice!

Can't decide if I should get one or not.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
