A Sony DualSense makes for a great Switch 2 controller.
8BitDo recently launched updated firmware for a batch of its controllers, including its USB Adapter 2. Now, you can plug that dongle into a Switch 2, and it recognizes anything from Sony’s DualSense to old wireless Wii U controllers as a native input device. The adapters are $18.99 a pop on Amazon.
The DualSense doesn’t have the same buttons as the Switch 2’s Joy-Con or a Pro Controller, but you can easily remap controls in the Accessibility options. For my purposes, clicking its touchpad launches GameChat.
