8BitDo has built a name for itself, being behind some of the best controllers for the Nintendo Switch, and beyond, that anyone can get their hands on. But the Nintendo Switch 8BitDo Wireless Adapter 2 is my instant go-to when thinking about the brand's impressive back catalog. The compact and easy-to-miss accessory plugs right into one of the USB ports on your official Switch dock and turns your old Bluetooth controllers, which are likely collecting dust, into your next favorite Switch accessory.

The 8BitDo Adapter is currently available for $19 on Amazon , and the Switch accessory hasn't budged away from its MSRP over the years, unlike 8BitDo's Ultimate Controllers. Its original price is a good bargain in its own right, especially as the adaptor can transform your old gamepads enough to rival even that of the best Nintendo Switch controllers . However, with Black Friday just around the corner, I'm holding out that the adapter will see a notable discount so more Switch fans can fall in love with the tiny, but impressive accessory, just like I have.



With the Switch 2 right around the corner, not all of us may feel inclined to spend a ton on even more controllers. However, with the notorious dreaded Joy-Con drift being just as prevalent as ever, even at the tail-end of the Switch's lifespan, investment in a new controller is likely a necessity. Especially if you're eager to take your friends down a peg in the recently released Mario Party Jamboree.

If, unlike myself, you don't .
