8Bitdo Zero 2 Bluetooth Gamepad Keychain Sized Mini Controller for Switch, Windows, Android, macOS & Raspberry Pi(Turquoise Edition)

This is a really great, tiny controller! I got this specifically for Mariokart on my Switch Lite. It’s so nice to be able to play another way. I still need to figure out how to pair multiple controllers at the same time, but I do believe that it’s possible. The controller is so small that it fits inside my case for my Switch Lite, so it takes up almost no space at all. It’s just as easy to bring it with me on the go as it is to just bring the Switch. It’s very easy to pair, and it typically stays paired after you set it up. Despite its small size, I don’t think that it’s any more difficult to use than the controls on the Switch itself. It’s also a cute color, I have the teal one as well. It doesn’t have all of the controls that the Switch has, so it won’t work well with certain games, but it definitely works well for Mariokart. I would recommend this to anyone who loves gaming and wants a super portable alternative controller.

***Update at the end!*** I was a little skeptical about the size but then I realized that this is about the width of my cellphone when held vertically. If you are looking for a physical controller to play emulators with, this is great. The controls are comfortable if your expectations are set. Pairs great with android and my phone remembers it (turn it on and it reconnects in seconds.) Battery life is great. I currently use it pretty frequently as I am revisit Gameboy Advanced games and it lasts a good long time. I am charging it about once a week. The strap is soft silicon. Update: My spouse and I finally bought a switch and this thing works great for that too! It's important to note that there is a combination of buttons to press (start + y i think) to switch from android/pc to switch mode. The instructions make it clear and once it is paired to the switch console it's a snap to use. It is roughly the size of a joy con and trades an analog stick for a dpad, which i personally prefer for platformers like Ultimate Chicken Horse. I would still recommend this to add a controller to your arsenal. Works well for any games you could play with a single joy con.

I bought the 8BitDo Zero 2 fully expecting it to be a novelty — something cute, unnecessary, and destined to live in a drawer. Instead, it has become one of the most used study tools I own. If you do Anki (especially if you’re a med student), this thing is dangerous in the best way. Here’s why: clicking spacebar 800 times a day is a fast track to wrist pain and existential dread. This tiny controller lets me lean back, dissociate slightly, and still absolutely demolish my reviews. No desk posture. No laptop hunch. Just buttons, vibes, and spaced repetition. It connects easily via Bluetooth, maps cleanly to Anki, and somehow feels shockingly responsive for something that could disappear into a coat pocket. Once it’s set up, it’s seamless — I forget I’m using it until I realize I’ve done hundreds of cards without wanting to scream. The size is deceptive. Yes, it’s small. Yes, your hands will question it for about five minutes. And then your brain adapts and suddenly this feels correct. I can review while standing, pacing, lying on the floor, or staring into the void after missing yet another “easy” question. If you’re thinking: “I can just use my keyboard” “This seems unnecessary” “I don’t need another gadget” That’s what I said too. And I was wrong. This doesn’t replace studying — it removes friction, which is half the battle. Anything that makes Anki easier to start, easier to finish, and less physically annoying is worth it. Tiny. Mighty. Joy-inducing. 5/5 — would absolutely buy again, and would recommend to anyone who lives in Anki.

It’s hard to not like this. It’s tiny and functional. Great for playing older games on emulators, but not for all games. Like, great for Civilization or a turn-based rpg. Not great for Street Fighter II or Super Mario World or games that required speed and precision. I love this brand. I have one of their Xbox controllers and it’s amazing. I also got rid of this one and bought a more expensive one that’s shaped like a snes controller but with analog sticks. That thing is great. Great for RPG’s, not so great for platformers or fighting games.

Terrible! Always get discounted when I’m playing games on Nintendo switch. Also it is missing SL and SR buttons, but instead it has L and R. For multiplayer in switch only SL and SR is useful. There’s not motion control

Excellent. Goods arrived fast.

Très utile pour Anki. Confortable même pour les grandes mains. Je ne l’utilise pour comme manette de jeux vidéo donc je ne sais commenter la dessus

Perfecto para jugar con Android, PC, Fire tv, etc... Se conecta a la primera y los controles son precisos, sin lag, no se ha desconectado ni una sola vez. Cabe en la palma de la mano pero al jugar ni lo notas, no pesa más y se puede llevar tranquilamente en el bolsillo.

I have been using it for the past year, so far so good. Easy to charge, easy to use. I bought it for my Anki Application which came pretty handy.
