8BitDo’s All-Button Arcade Controllers for Nintendo Switch 1/2, PC, and Xbox consoles are currently available at great prices. The wireless retro-style model for Switch 1/2 and PC is priced at $70.68 (down from $90), while the officially licensed Xbox and PC version is now $80 (originally $100). The Xbox deal is exclusive to Prime members, but anyone can snag the discount on the Switch 1/2 version. These controllers were launched last July and were part of Amazon’s Black Friday sale; the Xbox version was at the same price then, but the Nintendo version was pricier during that event. If you’re looking for a classic wireless fight stick, the 8BitDo Arcade Stick for Xbox and PC is available for $90 (was $120) for Prime members, and the 8BitDo Bluetooth Arcade Stick for Switch 1/2 and PC is $83 (was $90).
Before purchasing the NES-inspired All-Button Controller for Switch, consider the upcoming transparent purple Signature Edition. Created in collaboration with fighting game experts Zhen and Vxbao, this Signature Edition is available for preorder at $95, set to launch on January 31. Note that Nintendo Switch 2 users may need to update the All-Button Arcade Controller’s firmware for wireless connectivity. This can be done using Ultimate Software V2 or the 8BitDo Firmware Updater app. Similarly, if you choose the 8BitDo Arcade Stick, you can update it for Switch 2 using the Firmware Updater app or the original Ultimate Software desktop app.
8BitDo’s Arcade Sticks are also on sale. The version for Nintendo Switch 1/2 and PC is priced at $83 (was $90). This wireless fight stick, inspired by NES and SNES color schemes, features hot-swappable components and connects wirelessly to Switch 1/2 via Bluetooth and to PC using the included 2.4GHz dongle. It boasts a high-quality arcade stick, eight action buttons, and the same dials and configuration buttons found on the All-Button Arcade Controller. The 8BitDo Arcade Stick offers up to 30 hours of battery life over Bluetooth and 40 hours over 2.4GHz between charges. The included USB-C charging cable can also be used in wired mode, with the charging port conveniently located next to the storage compartment for the 2.4GHz dongle. You can keep the compartment closed while charging to avoid accidental disconnections.
The Xbox version of the 8BitDo Arcade Stick features a hot-swappable design and comes in white or black. The white edition is on sale for $90 (was $120), while the black model is currently priced slightly above MSRP, as it’s only available from third-party sellers. This officially licensed Xbox edition supports both 2.4GHz wireless and wired connections, and like the All-Button Controller, it includes a 3.5mm audio jack for wired headphones. Battery life for this model ranges from 20 to 30 hours between charges.
