8BitDo says its controllers are now compatible with Steam/SteamOS. The announcement specifically mentions three models and advises users to update their controllers and Steam client to the latest version.
I had no idea there were existing compatibility issues to be honest. If anything I’ve had better luck using my 8BitDo controllers with the Steam Deck versus my Windows machines. My SNES30 (yes, SNES30, not SN30) always had issues co-existing with other controllers on Windows, but it’s never been a problem on the Steam Deck.
What does “compatibility” mean? I have a bunch of their controllers, of different models, paired to different operating systems, and they all work great.
