“Perfect for fighting games and other classics”
Another new Xbox controller from 8BitDo is on its way! The “8BitDo M30 Wired Controller” has been officially licensed by Microsoft. Pre-orders begin today, with a December 22nd, 2023 release date.
As you can see, it resembles the six-button variants of the old SEGA Mega Drive / SEGA Genesis controllers, and 8BitDo claims the M30 is specifically designed for “fighting games and other classics.”
In fact, it’s being marketed as “the greatest six-button controller ever made,” so there’s a lot of faith in it! The controller has a “virtually lag-free” USB-C wired connection, as well as a dedicated profile switch button that allows you to switch between three different profiles, as well as support for the 8BitDo Ultimate Software.
