Hey There,

I pulled the trigger on some 8bitdo Ultimate controllers when they were on sale a week ago. It looks like I purchased the 2.4ghz version, which I thought was better, so I wouldn’t need to mess with bluetooth pairing, but after reading the posts here, perhaps this isn’t the correct one?

What’s better with Steam Deck? Bluetooth or 2.4ghz?

My version says “Ultimate 2.4G wireless Controller” on the box, and on the bottom it says “2.4G / USB.”

I want to be able to have two controllers on the Steam Deck at once. If I need to return this one and get a different one, I will.

Thank you!!

    They have a new controller that is 2.4ghz/ dongle that they advertised as compatible. I bought one but my Stream had a broke R1, waiting on its return.

    My thought process was that if Im going to use a controller, Im using it docked anyway. So the dongle doesnt matter.
