I’ve been eyeing this controller for quite a while and before jumping the gun I saw that it wasn’t advertised as being compatible with Android for some reason despite having bluetooth.

Upon looking around I saw this post that said the bluetooth controller does not support D-Input, only X-Input. So it’s partially compatible with Android as long as the game uses X-input.

Any thoughts on this? Does the Guilikit have the same problem?

    That’s the manual for Pro 2. Not Ultimate.

    The official page doesn’t mention Android as a compatible OS to work on.

      Oh sorry, I forgot they’re different. The 8bitdo naming scheme is a little dumb.

      Yeah the Ultimate controller doesn’t have a D-input mode, so you’ll have to get the Pro 2 if you’re interested in playing on Android. I don’t know if there’s X-Input --> D-Input software on Android but it sounds like it would be a hassle.
