Should I just stick with using Dualsense on my deck or get something like the 8bitdo ultimate/king kong controller?
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.
The touchpad is pretty useful on PC. Don’t really have any idea why you need it for ps5 stuff, but for PC desktop its great.
It has analog triggers. On windows you can even adjust the haptic trigger feedback manually. Plugged in you can even get the inbuilt mic to work through your PC.
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 really up to personal preference. If you’re happy with your Dualsense it’s perfectly fine and is a great controller
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.
