You warned NOT to buy the 1st version of the adapter, but that's the one you linked in your description FYI
thanks a lot. I changed the link. didn't see your comment :(
Bruh I clicked on the link and bought it
@@Fish9997 He commented and said he fixed the link over a month ago so ur probably good
Bruh, I click the link and got the wrong one
@@TiaoMW he changed it to the right one 4 months ago now… BRUH
A two minute video with perfect information and production. You make "Youtubing" seem easy with just how high quality and good flow your video has. Thank you.
Thanks, just ordered it to use my Elite Series 2!
Quick question though; on the switch pro controller, the A and B buttons are swapped. So will the A button on the Xbox controllers be mapped to B, or will A just map to the A button? Also the quality of your videos are top, keep it up, you deserve more subs!
Just saw your comment. The layout will be the same as a Nintendo controller. So, A on a xbox controller will be B in your game.
@@MaxDendy can it be remapped?

The button mapping button on the xbox one elite - does that work too if you have your presets saved to change on the quick. Or does that not get recognized?
Just tested this with an xbox one controller still works. I found It easier to remap the buttons on the Switch settings once connected compared to the PC software.
Hey, great video, do you know if the Xbox wireless steering wheel will connect to the switch?
Great review on the subject out of many I came across so far. Well done 👏!
Thankyou so much this helped me alot :)
Very helpful mate! Thanks!
how well is the responsiveness? is it practical for playing games like splatoon and such?
Has every information I looked for. Thank u very much sir.
the fact that i've had a bluetooth adapter this whole time and didn't even see that the switch docking station has usb ports!!! the cheap controller i've been using for the switch has started having some major stick drift and i was so sad i couldn't use my xbox one. i'll definitely be trying this later, you're a lifesaver! thank you so much!
Can I use the Xbox adaptor used for PC or does it have to be the specific Switch one?
that for the xbox elite controller series 2 what about the older series 1 xbox elite controllers? Is there a way to do it? even if i have the part that allows to connect wirelessly to my PC?
I'm more interested in the little cord you have connected to the switch what brand is that I would like to play in handheld mode with my controller
Hey are you able to connect multiple controllers in one?
Can you remap buttons of the xbox controller on the switch using this method? Does the remapping function still work?
Hey, yes, it works. Just tried it to be sure. I could remap A to A, B to B, Y to Y, X to X.
I know he already answered, I just want to add that when you map the buttons, it changes the software within the controller itself, so no matter which adapter you use, like the brook wingman XE 2 or this one, the remapping should work.
Excellent video, great explanation... I subscribe. Greetings bro ❤
Wow!! Im going to buy this one! I have elite controller I would live to use it on swtich
Hi sir, you are amazing! One quick question here, does motion control work in this case? Thanks alot!
Hello. Unfortunately, no. There is no motion control feature in Xbox controllers. Even on Xbox
Thank you so much
Would a D-Link Bluetooth adapter work too?
Love these vids keep up the great work max gr👍 😊.
Thank you so much 🥰
Hi, does it also work with Xbox One controllers?
Hi, just wondering if I use this method will i still be able to connect the xbox controller and other joycons at the same time for example like mario kart one player uses xbox controller while other uses joy cons?
Yes, you can
edit: now it works ty
I was looking for this. I got 3 Xbox controllers in the house!!
Does it work with multiple controllers?
Sir, is Logitech F710 works with the adapter? Or is there any way i can connect it to my Switch？
Thank you
Thank you ✨
Thank YOU! ☺️
@@MaxDendy 😊👍✨
Can you connect two xbox wireless controllers at the same time to the switch?
Can we connect two xbox controller to swtich (Using dock)? If its possible do I need two adapter?
Thank you i did get the right one
Oh that’s cool 🥳 I’m happy for you. With which Switch you are going to use it, btw?
@@MaxDendy the first switch.
i just have the first joycon that comes with it and I want something else if they start driving (thankfully not yeet)
but the prices are too high for a new one that with just third party company(risky too)
so adaptor was the perfect solution and I have Xbox controller already
Yeah you did everything right. Don’t bother with most expensive controllers and joy cons if you already have an Xbox controller.
Does it act like a pro controller on Mario games?
Gonna receive tomorrow 😉
Great video again. Keep it up. 👍🏻
Thanks a lot! ☺️ I will 💪
Everything is working fine for me except the vibration, is the vibration still supported, and if so how do i enable it?
Does it works if I just plug it with a just a cable, I mean not wirelessly.
Question. Can I only connect 1 controller or will I be able to use both usb slots to connect 2 controllers ?
One controller per adapter. So, you would two adapters for two controllers
Is ir possible to wake up the switch with this method? Great video btw, thanks!
Thanks. Just saw your comment. No, you can wake up your switch with Nintendo Pro Controller.
Thanks! Now I can play with my XBOX Controller on the Switch! 🎉
Can you use your headphones too?does it work?
I recently bought the adapter but I wanted to know if any usb to usb-c cable will work with the bare switch, your videos are so short but filled with information keeps it up man.
Thanks ☺️ you will need an adapter that transfers data
@@MaxDendy thanks!!
hi i want to ask if xbox official adapter works or not. and if it is, will it better than 8bitdo wireless adapter on switch or not because im a pc gamer too and i want to connect my xbox controller to my pc through xbox wireless adapter because i think it is better and more stable than bluetooth connection.
Did it work?
i have the 8BitDo Ultimate with the 8bit adapter it comes with but its not working with the switch xD
I have the xbox buttons layout version. shouldnt it work?
Whats the button mapping software called???
Would i need more than one dongle to set up multiple multiple xbox controllers at once?
Yes
Can you connect a generic Bluetooth Controller using this adapter? I have a Flydigi Vader 2 with Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz (XInput) support.
I don't wanna buy a new controller x.x
Is it possible to connect the gamepad directly to the console?
Can I use 3.5mm headphone jack on xbox controller with vibration same time?
Can you also play it wired?
Does this work for multiple xbox controllers?
thanks
The collab we didn't know existed
this is probs a silly question as think i seen it at beginning i have no dock with my Switch as broke can i still use the Adapter plugged into the Switch to configure like i would if i had the dock? Thank you very much. Good Work
Yes you can. However you'll need the female USB to type C adapter seen at 1:32
This way I can connect a headset to the Xbox controller and the audio and microphone functions will work on fortnite, for example?
Did it worked?
Does it work with every version of the switch? mine is nearly six year old, but I do have the latest software version
Can you usr KX adaptor?
Can you connect more than one controller at a time?
Did you find an answer to this?
8bitdo now make an orange colored one, similar to the 1st version.
Can you connect multiple (2) controllers the same way on a single Switch?
I'm guessing how it works is the connector on the switch end believes that the device connected is a pro controller, while the xbox controller side makes the controllers believe that the device they are connected to is an xbox. Considering there is only one physical connection it could only count as one, but technically speaking an xbox can connect to two controllers at once so aside from possibly the console determining that there is only one device connected, there should be no issue with connecting two. If you purchase two ports and connect them both separately, there definitely should not be an issue, however that does obviously require purchasing two ports which can be expensive, and you can only use this method attached to the dock or something similar.
Unfortunately no. One adapter - one Xbox/ps controller.
@@JRTO_ Yeah, that's what I was thinking about. And of course, I kept it in mind that I need each adapter for each controller.
And even tho it's expensive (+$20), it's worth it. Can't wait to feel the Xbox controller! :3
@@MaxDendy I actually meant 2 controllers and 2 adapters.
Hi. Please tell me the name of the song you used in this video. Thank you in advance.
Particle House - Infected Ground (Instrumental version) 😉
@@MaxDendy Thank you so much.
Do you need a charging thing
Does it work? I just need to know if it works for an Xbox Elite 2 Core controller in July 2024
Does it work with nintendo switch lite
I have had pro controller wired connection on, and i used a usb to usb-c adapter to plug in my controller but it would not work
can i combine with joycon? i mean player 1 using xbox controller, and player 2 using two joycon, thanks
Yes
Hey need some help with something. I'm playing legend of Zelda totk, it's working fine but just one small issue I wanna use gyro controls. If anyone knows or can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
Did you encounter issues where it vibrates but doesn’t connect
Will this work nin lite and where do you get adapter what the name of it thx.
I have a link in the discripiton. You will need to buy a black one. 8bitdo wireless adapter 2
Can you use multiple xbox controllers or just one?
One xbox controller per adapter. So, you will need 2 adapters for 2 controller, unfortunately. :(((
I still wonder if analog trigger will work.
Question does this actually? Have to connect to hub switch thing at home all the time. What I mean is, can I take my Xbox controller with my switch out with me and the Xbox controller will work with the switch
Does vibration work on Xbox Series controller on Switch? I'm wondering whether to buy the Nyxi Wizard or this adapter :/ I'm interested in playing Splatoon 3, Mario kart 8 Deluxe and Mario party superstars especially.
Vibration works)
@@MaxDendy Thank you! How does this control behave to play splatoon 3?
@sofiam141 I haven’t tried Splatoon. I guess it’s fine if you don’t need motion controls.
Hi Max, could you please let me know if i could connect the XBOX series 2 core controller with switch oled using the 8Bitdo 2 adpater?
I tried connecting the controller with the switch and the "paired" icon showed up on the switch, but when i use the buttons, nothing works
Hi, Chris! Yes, you can. Did you updated your adapter to the last firmware?
@@MaxDendy yes its on the latest version
@@MaxDendy I followed all the steps you taught in the video(using the 8bitdo 2 adapter and switching on the control setting on switch). It just doesn't work from 2:00 of the video, clicking the controller does not have any response:(
Which adapter do you have exactly?
@@MaxDendy 8bitdo USB wireless adpater 2, the black one with a number "2" under the logo 8bitdo
My favorite show lol
Could you just plug a controller directly into it, with USB c to USB c
whats the cord you plugged the adapter into?
The adapter for the portable switch mode. It comes with the 8bitdo 2
Ok I tried it - my Xbox elite controller series 2 shows connected but none of the buttons work and can’t navigate on the switch ? What would be the issue ?
so can you use an xbox controller on the switch lite?
Why can't we just do bluetooth like on iPhone
Fr tho
because its nintendo they don't care about their fans
Any input lag?
But it doesn't have the motion control, right? Like to play mario using the controller as a wheel
So which do i buy, there’s 2 links.
You can use more than one controller with this adapter?
You can connect 8 xbox computer?
You can use more than one, however if you want to connect 8 xbox controller you'll need a Microsoft adapter
@@MaxDendy hey thanks for the replay.
Do you have link how to do it?
I want to buy switch but only if i can use my xbox controllers because I'm pc gamer.
It's ok if i can use 4 xbox controls.
I can't find video or documentation if it's possible.
I’m sorry. I made a mistake. I thought you are talking about connecting them to PC.
With Switch you can connect only one Xbox controller. So, one controller per adapter. If you want more, you will need joy cons or pro controllers. I tried connecting two Xbox controllers and it didn’t work.
@@MaxDendy thanks your a life saver 💙💙💙
Can one adapter be used to pair multiple xbox controllers?
Unfortunately, no. One controller per adapter
Have a like and a subscribe. You just saved me some money.
Thank you so much ☺️ I’m glad I helped you!
Does the adapter work the on the switch oled?
Of course
Can you use 2 controllers on the wirelles one ?
Nope
Does it still work
No way! Holy crap
do i need an adapter
After firmware update of xBox S Controller, the 8bitdo Adapter does not support the connection to Switch.
how to connect with cable?
Does anyone know if you can use this to connect multiple controllers? For Mario kart or other multiplayer games.
I came here to ask the same question, so if anybody knows, help us out!
@@Ryan-is-me well fellow Ryan I decided to buy it and the answer is you can connect multiple controllers, but sadly only one can be used at a time (on the bright side, though, you can use your joy, cons as controllers, with your Xbox controller so you technically still have two good controllers, or one good controller, and two small controllers)
Sorry 😞 I didn’t see your comment. Yes, it’s one controller per adapter. P.S.: I already answered it multiple times in the comments, so you could see other comments. Anyway, you bought it and tested yourself. How is it? Do you like it? Do you regret? 🥹
@@MaxDendy thanks/personally I like it quite a bit and definitely don't regret buying it (the only down side is the letters on the switch and Xbox controllers are slightly different so it took some time until my brain got used to it)
@@ryanwinters9375 hey so I have a question. Can you still use the switch controller? I really want to play Mario party with my friends and I need to know if it works😅
Are the a and b buttons switched
Probably
is there input lag when using this device?
+1 to this question, I have the same doubt
nope, totally fine
Will it connect that fast if it’s already connected to something
Yes it will. If I understand you correctly. When you press the button it goes to the “connection mode”. No matter was it already connected to Nintendo, xbox or pc.
@@MaxDendy ok thanks I appreciate it
regular bluetooth dongle not working?
I got my XBox Series 2 Controller connected to my Switch (it indicates USB) but no input is accepted.. what I’m I supposed to do?
Can u connect
Multiple Xbox controllers for PS4 controllers ?
One controller per adapter
