Help Connecting 8bitdo NES30 Pro Controller
-
@norbit2 just so you know it might not show up as an 8-bitdo controller. It might be just numbers and letters because it does that like 90% of the time. So try anything that shows up. And to sync you need to hold down both the power button and then the sync button next to the power to put it into sync mode.
-
@edmaul69 I wish anything would show up but I get "No devices found..."
-
@norbit2 did you read what i just said how to put it into sync mode because just hitting the power button doesnt put it into sync mode.
-
@norbit2 I should note the light sequence on controller is as follows: Blink, Blink, Off, Off, Blink, Blink, Off Off, ETC..... Thus pairing in Windows mode.
-
@edmaul69 I have already tried that.
-
@norbit2 that is not pairing mode. Pairing mode is after you power it on hold the sync button until the lights turn purple. Then it is slow blue blink on off on off.....
-
@edmaul69 Purple flash means Connection and pairing data has been reset.
-
@norbit2 and that is what you have to do to pair it. Trust me. I have paired a ton of these no problems.
-
@edmaul69 What is the button sequence for this? I have not gotten the purple lights yet. Also, I actually have an NES30 Pro but I believe it is the same just looks different.
-
@norbit2 hold down the power button until the lights come on. Then let go. Next hold the sync button that is next to the power button until the lights flash purple/pink
-
@norbit2 i dont have the nes version but it should be the same. However, just hold the sync button until it flashes a color if it happens to be a different color than purple/pink.
-
@edmaul69 I have done exactly that and it will quickly flash blue. As I stated, My computer can see them right away, the Pie will not find either of them.
-
@norbit2 well i just broke my right analog stick dropping this trying to make a one handed video, but here is a video.
-
@edmaul69 Mine definitely does not do that. Sorry to hear about the controller. I have been at this 2 hours.
-
@norbit2 thats odd. Everone i have ever done for me and my friends did this.

@edmaul69 http://download.8bitdo.com/Manual/Controller/N30pro+F30pro/N30pro+F30pro_Manual_V4.pdf.
Here is the latest instructions for what I have.
-
@norbit2 the android mode is probably the correct one for the pi. Definitely not the windows mode. On the plus side, i took my controller apart, pulled off the joystick cap and put it back on correctly and its fine. :)
-
@norbit2 the android mode is the same as what i was doing. Just follow those instructions.
-
@edmaul69 I have tried every mode. Not work. Something is wrong with the pie or programing I assume.
-
@norbit2 did you try just holding the sync for 3 seconds then just letting go if it doesnt flash purple?
