Should I just stick with using Dualsense on my deck or get something like the 8bitdo ultimate/king kong controller?
I would keep with what you have. If you don’t have a compelling reason to get something new it’s not really worth it. That is how I try to look at it. Helps me save money and the planet
Unless you need back buttons or drift resistance of 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth, I’d stick with Dualsense
I got my 8bitdo controller for the very same reasons, my Dualshock 4 (with back button attachment) started drifting and I just got tired with adjusting deadzones to combat this lol
Only a bit related: does anyone know where in the UK I can get the XBox layout buttons for the 8bitdo Ultimate?
They’re on the US website for like $3 but I don’t know where to get them in the UK.
It’s your preference, however in the event the Dualsense ages too old and needs replacement, assuming you have a PS5 you’ll need to replace it to continue playing on PS5
My main platform is PC, I have various consoles and I keep a unique controller for each because on PC I play enough to burn through controllers, If I use my one Dualsense that would risk my ability to play on my PS5 until I replace it and limit my next controller option to just the Dualsense.
Try the Dualsense. If it works well for you, save the money and buy a game instead. If it doesn’t, get an 8bitdo controller.
