8BitDo Ultimate Software 4+

I ordered the ultimate wired xbox controller because it appeared to be the ultimate in customization & also featured custom Macro settings…. The custom macros feature is not featured in the ultimate wired for xbox. The ability to adjust the dead zone on both sticks should be really handy when stick drift eventually strikes & will extend the controllers life span. So far it’s holding up well with roughly 60hrs in game time, knocked off the couch onto the floor by my dogs more times than I wanna count without issue. One of the greatest features is the design of the wire itself… 6in from the USB connector is a barrel connector & it has saved my xbox from being jolted or pulled of the self by two dogs that seem to have difficulty lifting their paws high enough to recent the wire from getting hung up on a leg or two.
It really woulda been nice to have the macro feature when I’m playing MS flight simulator thou.

The basic functionality seems to be done easily. Three profiles for different games is nice and the information gets transferred to the controller quickly.
However looking past the trigger/joystick/vibration settings the rest is just boring. No updates, no turbo ability, no macros. Not even the ability to pick different buttons not a standard Xbox controller when playing a pc game that requires a few more buttons.
I would love as many options as the steam deck remapping. Or to export/import settings for when I visit friends.

The couple reviews I read said it’s not working for their 8bitdo sn30pro plus. This software is designed to only work with the new, not yet released 8bitdo pro 2. The sn30pro + you still need software on your pc.

That being said, it’s the same design, same functionality, just for a new controller. If you have/will have an 8bitdo pro2, this is a great tool to fine tune sticks, triggers (no trigger sensitivity for switch mode), back button programming and dead zone tuning. Highly recommend.
