Thanks for posting. I need to try this as soon as i get home. It was driving freaking crazy wondering if i was doing something wrong to the point i just gave up.
Weird but nice that you found it! The Ali express hucards also work with a trick...run a normal game, switch to the Ali card and run the last game again from the library!
Yeah, the firmware update to the controller is required for it to work. I made a video showing how to update it. Good luck! th-cam.com/video/HcYLyRPPB9Q/w-d-xo.html
Does both the TGFX & PCE Turbo 'Mini console' wired USB controllers work now with the Duo? I read that there was a firmware update that does in fact support them(Then again, I've heard people still have been having issues with comptability), and that they just under 2ms of latency, where as using either the 8BitDo PCE 2.4g or TG 2.4g wireless controller will have around 7ms. Also, supposedly you can connect something like a 10ft mini micro USB A cable from your 8BitDo TG 2.4g controller and connect it to the Duo's USB for just under 2ms of latency as well. Options Options! :P
I don't have a way to measure the latency myself, but I have also read that the USB wired controllers are the lowest latency option. Next time I sit down and test controllers, I will be sure to focus some more on wired controllers. Thanks for watching!
Hello, I have the pc engine mini and the 8bitdo controller for pc engine. I currently have the controller with the official firmware. I'm about to buy the analogue duo, if I want the controller to work on both consoles, how should I do? Because I understand if I update the firmware for analogue, then it won't work with the USB dongle, right? I wonder if the USB dongle that includes the controller would work with analogue duo to leave the original firmware and use the controller with both consoles. Thank you
Hey! You are correct: your best bet is to just use the dongle on both consoles. It will work 95% the same. There are some slight changes to how the controllers work between dongle and firmware update. I made a video about exactly that, please have a look: th-cam.com/video/bZkpG0mvVkc/w-d-xo.html
I dont understand why anyone would even wanna use that controller, its to small and it has rapid fire instead of turbo switches. Doesnt make sense why 8bitdo made this controller completely different from the original
Both of your videos about this controller were lifesavers for me. Thank you!
You're welcome! I'm glad I could help.
It worked. Thanks a lot : )

Did you end up getting it working?

Thanks for the tip!
You are a genius. Thanks!
If this helped at least one person with that problem, I'm happy! You're welcome!
I was having this exact issue. Thank you. Now if you can kindly post a video on how to update the duo firmware that would be great.
I'll see what I can do!
Thanks for the video. I faced the same issue but it didnt work.. so I try out the firmware update

Originally, I thought the same. I have been using them with the TG16 Mini, and shockingly they work really well! I like them now.
