     @coolboymew This is why I don't trust wireless controllers on PC.

     @coolboymew@shitposter.club that's actually dope? That controller is fucking comfy to hold and I haven't did anything with it emulation wise yet

     @koimoa it works super great and even better than when I had to use the 8bit doh retro adapter

     @coolboymew I just don't like having to correctly pair the two devices. If you also own the respective console, you need to make sure the controller doesn't turn the console on when using it with a PC.

     @xianc78 but that's already what's happening. With the 8bit doh retro receiver, it didn't change the power button, it was still tied to the Wii U. Now it's completely tied to the PC

     Corded controllers just have better latency and you don't have fiddle with 5 step Bluetooth setup.

     Remind me again, does the Wii U controller have gyro? It's been a while

     @coolboymew @koimoa The Wii U gamepad definitely had gyro, I used it a lot in games like Wind Waker HD and Star Fox Zero.

     @koimoa @ChristiJunior oh yeah the battery life is insane. You can basically go through a 40-50 hours game and never have to charge it
