The well-known retro-style gamepad company, 8BitDo , has released another product that solves the common problem with all the miniature classic consoles manufacturers have been releasing in recent years: wired controllers. Given that the consoles retain their original essence, it was expected that with the launch of the PlayStation Classic and its 20 games, they would introduce an adapter like the ones they designed for the Nintendo Classic Mini.
PlayStation Classic with wireless controllers
Reminiscing about the good old days by replaying old games is priceless, but you have to admit that wired gaming isn't particularly comfortable these days. If you have a piece of furniture where you organize all your multimedia devices, these devices break your scheme to the point of not being able to use them, so this type of solution saves more than one life.
The adapter is a simple USB device similar to a USB memory that we can connect directly to the port of the small PlayStation. Once connected, we can pair the device with a large number of wireless controls, such as the following:
- PS4 Dual Shock
- PS3 Dual Shock
- Xbox One Bluetooth Controller
- Switch Pro Controller
- Wii u pro
- Wiimote
- Joy-Cons
- Any official 8BitDo controller (except those that work with 2.4g radio)
As you can imagine, the adapter makes use of Bluetooth connectivity to link the gamepads with the console, including support for vibration on the Dualshock 4, 6-axis movement on the Switch, all without any lag thanks to wireless connectivity.
Cut the wires to your PlayStation Classic for $20
Although the list of included games was limited to 20 titles from the entire PlayStation collection, there are already methods that allow you to run games from a USB drive on the PlayStation Classic , so some will spend more hours than they expected in front of the console, and will therefore need a little more freedom when playing.
Buy 8BitDo products on AmazonFor these cases, this wireless adapter for PlayStation Classic is perfect, so if you are one of them you should know that it can be reserved right now on Amazon at a price of $19,99, having to wait only until the next 31 of December to be able to receive it at home. Unfortunately, for now the product is not shipped to Spain (at least on Amazon), so we will have to wait until Amazon Spain offers it in its catalog (you can currently find several 8BitDo products).
