The incredible Hulk version, officially licensed, costs $80 ($100) at Wal-Mart. The controller is sold by boats from Gamesir and Walmart.

The face buttons have an Xbox controller layout, so A/B and X/Y are flipped. By default, Nintendo consoles will register button When they are markedwhich may confuse some players.

There are several potential drawbacks when using the G8 Plus with the Switch 2. Although the Grip securely holds the switch 2 in place and has a rubber bridge and mat on each side to prevent scratches, it won't connect to the console like a Joy-Con controller does. When carrying the console with you, you may want to make sure to hold the switch 2 itself, not just the grip. Due to the size of the switch 2, the edge extends to the top and bottom of the grip, exposing it. You might want Add protective case in switch 2 When using the controller. Also, remember that you need to remove Switch 2 from the cradle to dock.

I often use the G8 Plus when gaming on iPhone. Platform versatility is the main benefit here.

So even if you end up buying another controller or Add ergonomic grip on consoleG8 Plus does not need to collect dust.
