Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work with the Nintendo Switch 2?

Yes. Switch 2 compatibility is supported, but you must first update the adapter to the latest firmware using 8BitDo's updater before it will work.

Can I use my PS5 DualSense controller on a Switch with this?

Yes. The adapter supports PS5, PS4, and PS3 controllers, along with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One Bluetooth, Switch Pro, Wii Remote, and Wii U Pro pads.

Does gyro aiming and rumble still work through the adapter?

Both are supported. The adapter passes 6-axis motion controls on Switch and vibration in X-input mode, so gyro aiming and rumble carry over.

Yes. Listed system compatibility covers Switch, Switch 2, Windows, macOS, Steam Deck, and Raspberry Pi, making it a fit for emulation builds.
