      Wired but really cheap. :)

      Let me know how good are these 8BitDo when you get them. :)

        I got the 8Bitdo pro back in November from Amazon, its a lovely little controller and compliments the raspberry pi and retropie

        I may get another soon for multiplayer, I currently use a ps2 adaptor for player 2

          Apologies for the nero bump, just wanted to add that I'm an official reseller of 8bitdo in the UK.

          We've setup a voucher for 10% off for forum members.

          Thanks!

                I'll wait for an admin / mod to chime in before creating a new thread. Just to make sure it's Okay. The offer is live on the site and is unlimited time-wise. thasnk again.

                  @leeroy1981 where's the firmware for these controllers on your site?

                  and is this a genuine 8bitdo? as they don't appear on your site -

                          I would suggest that people only buy from authorised resellers on the 8bitdo.com website.
                          I tend to get mine from 8bitdo eBay account.

                          I think Lee is in discussion with 8bitdo.com now, so lets wait until that is resolved.

                          Please read the Docs before asking a new question.

                            HI, yeah you caught my ninja edit! I copied in the email from the suppliers at .com, but then wondered if it gave away too much personal information.

                            I've emailed them again and asked for a link from teh official distributors page. Will update you once we have it and post back. Thanks again for your understanding. We'll also have some review / freebies to give away as well. :)
