Just what my relaxing escapist hobby needed, debt.

If everybody has to finance their purchases, something might be fundamentally wrong with the economy…

Putting everything on credit is a great plan if you expect the world to end very soon.

Ganbat,

So it’s a great plan, then! Let’s go!

ech,

Only if you’re right.

The era of financing gooner skins for your waifu has arrived

It always existed with credit cards.

I’ll ask their support about what exactly they mean by steamos support (fully rebindable in steam, or just “the buttons work”) and edit my comment to show the answer.

NuXCOM_90Percent,

Ultimate 2 is fully bindable in Steam (even gyro if you do directinput over bluetooth).

Valve gonna Valve but there isn’t a reason to assume a regression on that. But, like everything, don’t preorder things.

LiveLM,

Ultimate 2 also does Gyro over the 2.4 dongle (At least in the Wireless version).
Update the firmware of the controller and the dongle and hold B when turning on.

I have an Ultimate 2 and I haven’t been able to figure out how to do that so I can’t remap the back buttons with Steam input.

What’s the trick?

dualpad,

Right now has to be the 8bitdo Ultimate 2 wireless. Not the bluetooth switch one. Need to update the dongle and controller to the latest beta firmware and launch it in dinput mode by turning it on while holding the B button. Then all the extra buttons can be mapped along with using gyro with analog triggers, which couldn’t be done before.

There is a bug that needs to be fixed where rumble can cause the controller to stop working in game, so for now need to use it with rumble off until that is fixed. But, everything else works when it comes to binding through Steam Input.

idogoodjob,

Is Dinput mode limited to Bluetooth only or can it be used on the 2.4ghz as well?

Edit: nevermind, just saw the other comment below mine that mentions it working in both connection modes

NuXCOM_90Percent,
  1. Update the firmware of the controller and dongle (technically the dongle isn’t necessary if you are using bluetooth). I did this in a VM because Linux
  2. Fully power down the controller. Switch to the connectivity mode you want
  3. Hold the Circle/B button and power on the controller to enable directinput mode
  4. Update Steam to the Beta branch
  5. Open Steam’s controller remapper
  6. Regardless of connectivity, you should have mappable L4/R4/BackPaddles. If you are using bluetooth you will also have the gyro

Thank you. It looks like this is sort of working in that I can get the additional buttons to show up in Steam now but I’m hitting what I think is a bug where the ‘Enable Extended Buttons’ toggle doesn’t stay enabled. After searching a bit it seems like I’m not the only one but maybe that will get worked out soon.

I already have four of the predecessors and only use one of them 99.9 % of the time. But.

Very nice of them to add hall effect triggers for improved longevity so that you can trash it even sooner than the Pro 2 once the non-replaceable battery dies out.

Thassodar,

Are you talking about the battery in the Pro 2? My understanding is they use TMR sticks that use less battery. And even if/when the battery dies I’ve been having no issues using it wired.

tomalley8342,

The Pro 2 was notable for having an easily replaceable battery pack which was also compatible with standard AA batteries, and now the Pro 3 will be removing this feature in favor of an internal battery. I was implying that although the Pro 3 includes a new hall effect sensor for the triggers which would marginally increase its lifespan, the Pro 3 will likely need to be thrown away sooner than a Pro 2 because of its new irreplaceable battery design.

Hadriscus,

You should still be able to disassemble it and solder on a new battery if you have the tools, the time and the knowledge

Thassodar,

I was thinking about my Ultimate 2 anyway, so my comment didn’t matter. Maybe I’ll get a Pro one, some day.

I have 3 of their controllers and never had issues with the battery

tomalley8342,

I have 1 of their controller, the Pro 2, and I never had issues with the battery, and will never have issues with the battery, because it takes standard rechargeable AA batteries. Unfortunately I can’t say the same about the Pro 3.

brisk,

It’s not replaceable? That’s disappointing. I expected better of controller manufacturers since they’re not space constrained.

ISolox,

I can’t speak for this controller specifically, but all of the 8bitdo controllers I’ve had seem to been fairly easy to get into and repair.

Although it’s not as convient as the Pro 2, I wouldn’t say it’s not replaceable.

I love everything about the ultimate pro 2 but the ergo. Sn30pro2 is my go to but miss the dock and back buttons. So this might be what I have been looking for
