I tried doing a joystick swap on my SN30 Pro. The joystick caps fit the joystick modules just fine, but they didn't fit through the controller casing properly.
My solution was to add these caps instead. They work fine for preventing wear on the joystick caps. I've used a set on my new Pro+ as well, and they fit on that controller as well.
That said, I'd still be more comfortable with a full stick mod if someone can provide pictures of a working one. Have you tried these joysticks?
> as for me AA batteries, similarly to the Xbox 360 is a no-no.

> I loved the Sn30 Pro integrated rechargeable battery on the other hand.
Many people don't realize how crazy it is to WANT to be chained to the wall with proprietary non-replaceable batteries (NRB's) that force you to buy a new device when they fail on a predetermined schedule. You can either play, or you can charge. Which would you rather pay to do? You can be either wireless without wires, or wireless with wires. Which would you rather pay to have?
Rechargeable AA batteries exist. I recommend you get these ones:
Get this package first to get the highest quality charger on the market:
You need that charger to get the full life out of Eneloops. If you take care of them, Eneloops will last at least a decade, maybe longer.
So, I got these sticks from Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00UCXKA78?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_image
I put them into my SN30 Pro+, and this is what it all looks like:
https://i.imgur.com/BSa6JVX.jpg
They actually work quite well, but yeah, there is some rubbing up on the controller on the inside, specifically whenever I'm moving the sticks down and to the left. (Originally, they got stuck so much that they were unusable, but rotating them 180 degrees allowed them to function.) I love having them in there, enough that I don't think that I'm going to go back to the stock plastic/rubber ones, but just keep in mind that they're not perfect. It's SO close, too; if I click the sticks in to press L3 or R3 and then move them all around, there's no rubbing at all. If only there were a way of dropping the board in the controller down by half a millimeter or so, everything would be perfect.
You could get the older version of the SF30 Pro, it's still available on Amazon:
​
SF30 Pro:
https://www.amazon.com/8Bitdo-SF30-Controller-Windows-macOS-Android/dp/B0748S3GXG/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=sf30+pro&qid=1557440311&s=gateway&sr=8-3
​
SN30 Pro:
https://www.amazon.com/8Bitdo-SN30-Controller-Windows-macOS-Android/dp/B0748S1VDC/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=sn30+pro&qid=1557440468&s=gateway&sr=8-3
​
Both of these models were the first controllers I bought from 8bitdo. They both work great, though I did have to do the tape fix in order to make the D-pad do diagonal directions properly. (Pretty much all 8bitdo controllers do this. I had to do it to my SN30 controllers as well.)
​
I'm still waiting for the SN30 Pro+ to come out, but their website says that was supposed to release over five months ago. Instead of waiting for newer models, I say just find what looks good to you and buy now.
If you are going to be exclusively using it as an Xbox controller, I'd recommend just picking up a regular Xbox controller, as it's much easier and has proper triggers. The Xbox Wireless Controller also now has Bluetooth so you don't need dongles.
The FC/NES30 Pro is only really useful as a portable controller for your phone and for retro games.
Thank you for your reply. I am currently using this one. I just ordered the one you linked me too though so hopefully I'll have luck with it. Thank you for your reply.
Pre-ordered a black one; it's been great! Never had any issues on PC or Shield & didn't even use that tiny 1000mAh battery, went for externally charged eneloop batteries right out of the box.
Granted, I still prefer my DS4's (minus the non-removable battery) but the Pro+ been great thus far with everything I've thrown at it, no matter what gaming genre it is.
Sure, for a powered hub, I would probably recommend this guy:
USB Hub 3.0 Powered RSHTECH 4 Port USB Splitter Portable Aluminum Data Hub with Individual On/Off Switch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HMZSRS7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_fw-IDb175ZHY5
There's also an AmazonBasics equivalent too if he prefers a cheaper option :) I have heard they both work.
This one seems to fit pretty well.
Switch Pro Controller Case - Keten Protective Hard
Amazon Link
Thanks for your response. That sounds like it may be a good workaround, though I don't have access to a Wiimote at the moment, so that's an additional expense... But it's a good idea.
I'm thinking it actually looks like this version of the controller is the one I'm looking for?
Seems to be a slightly older model that isn't on their website, but is marketed as being PC bluetooth compatible, so maybe I'll give it a try. Hopefully it will work with a superNT in the future, I'm considering getting one.
Edit: I'm going to give this method a go with the newer 2.4G model and see if I can fool Windows into thinking it is a WiiController... I'll report back my findings for science.
I used this Qi receiver from Amazon for the mod: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D7TF28D/
The fit is a little tight, but it’s still easy enough to close the controller after installation.
EDIT: This receiver allows pass through, so you can still charge or connect via USB.

the red circle one pretty fit on my 8bitdo sn30 pro+
Geek Theory 8Bitdo SN30 Pro Bluetooth Controller (SN Edition) Bundle - Includes Bonus Carrying Case - for Nintendo Switch, PC, Mac OS & Android https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HGK27M4/ref=cm_sw_r_other_taa_kHwWDbZACKPC5
Comes in original packaging with case.
Here are pictures of all 3 planned one right now with the system they are based off of.
I'm debating between the Gameboy and SNES one myself, if the SNES one had the two different color buttons like SN30 Pro, i would have bought it for sure.
if I'm bringing lots of controllers and my whole setup, I put it in a hard shell case that used to be for a pair of headphones I have (similar to this ), or I put it in my backpack inside a balled up jacket so it has some padding and isn't squished too hard against other stuff.
You could also look into a generic game controller case like this or get one made for PS4 controllers, it's probably similar enough in size that it would fit the 8bitdo
>. Still the same button shapes and Dpad shapes as OEM, but maybe like a hair's difference on the Dpad ball or something.
So.. of these two
https://www.amazon.com/8Bitdo-SF30-Controller-Windows-macOS-Android/dp/B0748S3GXG/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=8bitdo%2Bsf30&qid=1554184991&s=gateway&sr=8-3&th=1
https://www.amazon.com/Geek-Theory-8Bitdo-Bluetooth-Controller/dp/B07HGK27M4/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=8bitdo+sf30&qid=1554224288&refinements=p_36%3A3000-4200&rnid=386453011&s=videogames&sr=1-6
Which do you think I should get?
For some reason, the old version - which I think would be of higher demand - is cheaper than the new version.
For wired, it has to be the Xbox 360 to PS4 converter or Xbox 360/Xbox One to PS4, both of them are green.

Make sure you install the latest firmware
Yeah I have another PS4 controller. I have this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0786JC6VW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Another user said these will fit SN30PRO and I assume Plus, without the rubber coming off over time.

I just got these today and tossed them onto my OG SN30 Pro. The fit like a glove and work well. I tried contacting 8bitdo but I have no idea how long it'd take. From here I heard between 6-8 weeks. I reached out to them on May 22 and still haven't gotten any yet. You could probably go cheaper or stretch your money further with a pack of about 6. If i'd have, known i'd have replaced them months ago. But I read that DS4 sticks wont fit due to sitting higher or something and you'd have to file the stick down or something.
I have this type:
8Bitdo SF30 Pro Controller Windows, macOS, & Android - Nintendo Switch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0748S3GXG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_gbcXBbYA3R6R8
And this one:
8Bitdo Sn30 Pro Bluetooth Gamepad (G Classic Edition) - Nintendo Switch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GKLG3ZP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_xccXBb2MB5XSP
It is this one: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0748S3GXG
Model: 80DB
It is NOT possible to pair it with the retro receiver currently available.
The 80DB variant is discontinued (due to legal reasons) and unsupported (due to being discontinued) anyways.
The adapter is working properly (was able to pair other 8ButDo controlers) and the SF30 Pro is working, too, because I was able to pair it with a Raspberry Pi running RetroPie (horrible input lag, though).
