Hi, I have just bought my Oculus Go a few hours ago and so far I am very very pleased. Not sure if anyone here has got one but I have paired my Yuneec Breeze controller with it and so far it works flawlessly, almost went out to buy an Xbox one s controller but glad I decided to try out the yuneec one first :-) happy days :-)
Great to see this video to inform all these new VR owners with the Go. We've tested them with the exception of the Switch controller, didn't think of that one! Even if it doesn't work well, good to know we shouldn't recommend it to those playing our game KIN. Steelseries was the default option recommended by Oculus during development for Gear, so we mostly used that, but the XboX controller is quite nice too, although we don't have the perfect matchy-matchy matte grey one :) Thanks for posting this!
Does any of these controllers allow you to navigate through the home screen. My Oculus go controller has given up and is beyond repair so hoping to find an alternative. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Brilliant video!
I have the headset but not the controller. I do have the Stratus XL. However, it can't get past the set up screen of the app because it wants you to pair with the stock controller. How can you get around that?
Great video! Here from the podcast. I think after the original xbox controller microsoft spent all their R&D money on the new one lol. Paid off though, I love it! Looking forward to getting into VR.
On Amazon, it doesn't say XBox One S controller, so I don't know if there's a difference between a regular XBox One and Xbox One S controller, but I'm glad you included a link.
Thank you. OMG, I'm was googling X Box One S Wallace and couldn't find it...I misheard you, lol; you were saying wireless, lol. If I get this, I'm totally naming my controller Wallace, lol.
I tried my moga controller as well as nintendo switch pro controller. Moga didnt even connect to the app, Pro Controller was so laggy, and was giving me ghost inputs. Bit the bullet and got an xbox one S controller. Out of the box, instantly worked with my sideloaded retroarch and all cores ive tried thus far. The directional pad is also VERY good for classic games. happy retro gamer here :)
Sorry to ask a dumb question but I just got my Go today and the Steel controller and I don't see any menu options in the Go to pair the controller up with it. I saw where you pushed the button on the controller but couldn't tell where you were in the menu for it to recognize it.
So on your phone, in the Oculus app, goto settings and click on the paired Go headset. Then click on controller and add new controller. You should be good []-)
Hi Mike great vid got myself the xbox gamepad followed your instructions but cant get passed the scanning stage just keeps prompting to scan again in the botom blue bar on the app? can you assist plz cheers!
Make sure you got the right Xbox One controller as you need the one with Bluetooth enabled. It should connect through the Oculus app in settings under controllers []-)
Hi again Mike still no luck with this issue? heres what i do. settings-oculus nearby connected with wifi details underneath-controller-pair new controller-pair gamepad turn xbox gamepad on slow flashing hold bluetooth button at the front left fast blinking headset has small blinking blue light on then hit scan on app and nothing happensjust scan again? if you have a solution be very grateful cheers again!
Have you tried an iOS steel series? I have a spare one knocking around so it’d be handy if it worked. Don’t have a go yet - hoping retailers in the uk get them in soon
Go Xbox I have Steelseries and while it's nice the shoulder button have issues Do some research and you find lots of people have issues with gearvr apps that use the shoulder buttons such as Vendetta space sim ect. Basically you have to add in deadband or expo to soften the first 15 percent of buttons travel but this doesnt always work.
Patrick M ya it's bad. I am disappointed with mine. I should have listened to by buddy and bought an Xbox controller but I liked the 2 sticks being close together for flight sims
This is one of those questions that is possibly so stupid it’s painfull but I’m going to ask it anyway. Does the Xbox controller act as a pointer for selecting menu items as does the controller I received with my Go?
You can use the controller to navigate the menus, your head is the pointer and the A button on the controller is select. You can also use the thumbsticks to scroll the tiles []-)
Probably a silly question, but.. Is there a real need for an additional controller? Do some games require it? Are they just "better" than the included controller? Just wondering... Thanx..
Some of the games Mike showed in this video will require a gamepad controller and won't work with the single remote-like controller that comes included with the Go (like KIN and Arcade), others are better experienced with a gamepad but could be played with the standard included one (like Blaze Rush).
Thanx! As I don't have a gaming PC/laptop (or a PS4) and can't justify one currently just for VR, I am seriously starting to consider something like this. I have tried the google cardboard type of stuff (with my old phone) and thought it was entertaining, so I might be one of the target people for something like the Go. ;-)
Can you only use the xbox controller with certain games? I have connected mine to my Oculus Go as I can see it on the controller screen, but it doesn't seem to be working!! Does it not allow you to navigate the home menus?
Cant get it to work. i paired a brand new xbox one s controller successful via the Ios app but the the xbox logo on the controller just keeps flashing slowly and nothing happens. What must i do?
Virtual Reality Oasis I found out what was wrong. I unpaired it several times, nothing worked. The solution was to update the firmware of the Xbox controller. U can do it even without an Xbox, but u need windows 10. Download the Xbox accessories app, connect the controller via usb and start the update
I grabbed a Steel Series XL in feb in anticipation for the Go and used it this morning with Arcade. Totally awesome to use, I Prefer the button layout with the two joysticks that have the nice grippy edges. I bought this mainly to play Minecraft so looks like I’ll be attempting side loading. Got to dig up my old android phone to do this I understand
I can test it,but i dont think it will work with it using the specific dongle. Edit. Tested it. Doesnt detect it at all. With or without the dongle plugged into the headset and the phone. Didn't think it would. Only other option might be using it wired which ill test but i still doubt it.
Thanks for making the video I asked for. I cannot get most of these controllers to connect to my go for some reason. I would like to mention though that my 8bitdo nes30 pro controller connected quite easily the first time and works really good. I saw you failed to mention that one. Give that one a try too, if you have one.
Virtual Reality Oasis I am definitely trying to pair it on the app. Yeah, I definitely can’t get the switch controller, or the PlayStation four controller to pair to my GO. I think it might be because I’m using an IPhone X! What kind of cell phone are you using the oculus app on?
Press and hold the pair button on the PS4 controller and pair it using the Oculus app. Although I wouldn't recommend the PS4 controller as the button mapping is off []-)
I showed how to do it in the video, I would suggest restarting your phone and your Go and try again. On your phone, in the Oculus app, goto settings and click on the paired Go headset. Then click on controller and add new controller. You should be good []-)
OK so how the hell do u get the ps4 controller to pair?? I have tried several times using the app scan for the controller and it doesn't find it any advice?? Thanks.
I showed how to pair it in the video. You have to press and hold the PlayStation button and the share button until the light starts flashing to put the controller into pairing mode []-)
Thanks for the video, it was a great help. Got myself an Xbox one controller in the Black Friday sale and I'm really happy with it. Do I have to pair the controller with the Go using the iPhone app every time I turn it on as seems to be the case? If so, is there any way around it as it's my partner's phone and I don't always have access to it, and the Oculus app won't work on my android tablet. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers
Great video! thanks for the info, I've just ordered my oculus go yesterday i just can't wait ! I'm wondering if there is gonna be more good games/ experience that works better with the x box controller ?
Cheers, for the Info. Alas my 8Bitdo SN30pro & SF30pro (tried in directinput,xinput and switch modes) suffer the misplaced buttons like the switch/ps4 did for you. My old IPEGA 9028 actually worked well, even its touchpad worked (though wasn't practical). Got another IPEGA that extends to hold a tablet, didn't test it, but guess it would work, if you really want I can check it. In the end of the day though, the IPEGA is OK, and OK dosn't cut it for me, so ordered up the XBOX bluetooth one you advise. TY
Hey Mike, I hope you see this and can help me. When I go to the link you provided to buy the Xbox one S controller from Amazon it just says it a Xbox one controller without putting the "S" next to it. Is it for sure the correct controller I should be buying to pair with the Oculus Go?
Yeah, the one I linked to in the description is the right one. The plastic that surrounds the centre xbox logo button should be the same as the rest of the controller. The one you don't want is the original xbox one controller which has black shiny plastic which surrounds the centre xbox logo button []-)
Awesome as usual. A quick question not quite related but nevertheless I’m struggling to find out. My Go is on its way and I was just wondering if the likes of Ultrawings and Drop Dead which I already own for my rift will work on the Go without having to buy them again? Thanks in advance mike you rock.
After doing some testing of my own the Moga Pro Power gamepad works fantastic and I am super excited that the Go doesn't have the input lag sound delay that my GearVR has on Oculus Arcade, but I had 1 question.... did you find a way to go back and pick new arcade cabinets once you are in? In the GearVR I would use the headset back button, but I couldn't figure out a way with only the gamepad.
Virtual Reality Oasis hopefully they are still working on it. I never noticed the reset button at your feet when playing so I guess they are still adding features.
Virtual Reality Oasis interesting... when I tried that I got booted out of Oculus Arcade. I wish they could do it like Blazerush where you can use select to go back one step.
hi i don't understand ,i live in france if i want to choose a gamepad xbox for my oculus go so i find only with a dongle at 70 euros did the link with amazon uk has dongle bluetooth or the BT is inclued inside the gamepad?
Great video thanks. I purchased the XBox1 S controller and I paired it to the Go. Now I can't get it to work. When I turn it on I get the flashing Xbox logo but none of the buttons work in any game. Am I missing a step? I see the controller is paired on the Oculus app on my iPhone, but that's it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
hi like i don"t have any answer i bought the xbox controller , i success to paired on oculus phone app but i don't see it in oculus go ? the x touch blink without connexion can you help me please:(? thanx alot
Super cool Go videos! Great to watch while I get mine (it's on its way). Really hoping it'll work with my older iPega phone controller. It should, but you never know.
Darn, only have the PS4 controller :P guess i'll have to deal with the weird controls or try to find some solution...Probably going to end up getting an Xbox controller, as I planned on getting one for PC games anyways. Great video Mike, i'm loving the GO coverage so far! (by the way I really want a Mike eating popcorn in VR pillow)
Can you do this without a phone? (using oculus touch) I just went to my store to buy a gamepad and had the sudden realisation that the controllers don't come with a bluetooth connector or cables.. I am using a PC, does it just automatically connect just like the touch controllers or what?
Every Time I try to connect to the PS4 controller or the Nintendo controller doesn’t work said something went wrong is it because I did i did it on iphone
Hello, I can not use my "xbox one s": no key works sometimes there is a key (A) that works, but that's it. I tried with VR RALLY for example. does it depend on the games? what is the name of the game (car race) that we see on the screen? thank you for helping me Christian
The song names is Hotshot 2 - Niklas Ahlström in case anyone wanted to know, sick video BTW, i own 2 of the controllers you reviewed, i use one called a beboncool. Its pretty cool.
Just lost my Oculus Go Original Controller... Will have another look, otherwise it's £25 for a new one from the store, or I may just go try one of these recommended controllers... If anyone sees this, can you control the whole Oculus Go system with one of these, (or use menu screens, browser, etc) or do I need the original controller for this ?
When I pair my Xbox One, or Switch Pro to my GO, I get mixed results. is there anyway to fix the issues? I get LAG with the PRO, and some buttons not working (LT RT) on the Xbox controller.
8BitDo Thanks for this helpful video! It'd be great if you could update this for the popular SF30 Pro and SN30 Pro 8BitDo third party controllers. Cheers
This channel deserves more subs. Share this guy. Let’s give him more motivation to upload daily
Thanks very much for the support Benny []-)
Would this replace the actual controller of oculus go. So I can use it as controller and to have fun as well.
Question, I don't have the original Oculus Go controller anymore and would like to initialize it with some other controller, is it possible?
Do the controllers work on pressing the oculus button at the start. I lost my OculusGo controller and am looking for a replacement
Very timely show for all of us new Oculus Go users. Exactly what I was hoping for. Thanks again!
Thanks mate []-)

Does it work on the setup when it says hold the oculus button. Because my controller doesn't work so am looking for a replacement

This is my problem too, any luck?
You’re killing it, Mike. Great video, mate.
Cheers bro!! []-)
What!? Call the police!
Always going above and beyond! Awesome job Mike!
Cheers PD!! []-)
That’s easy. The Xbox controller is always known for being the best controller hands down. Best in durability, design, and comfort.
Exactly! It's a fantastic controller []-)
Personally I find the s controller a step down from the 360 one in build quality and durability.
I have the headset but not the controller. I do have the Stratus XL. However, it can't get past the set up screen of the app because it wants you to pair with the stock controller. How can you get around that?
I'm still watching... ordered a Steelseries earlier today since you mentioned one on Saturday... hoping it is the winner....
Hey Mike, This may be a really dense question, but I can't figure out how to redeem a key on the Go. Do you know how to do so?
Nevermind. Found it on the webpage account.
Great video! Here from the podcast. I think after the original xbox controller microsoft spent all their R&D money on the new one lol. Paid off though, I love it! Looking forward to getting into VR.
Exactly! The xbox one s controller is great []-)
On Amazon, it doesn't say XBox One S controller, so I don't know if there's a difference between a regular XBox One and Xbox One S controller, but I'm glad you included a link.
The bluetooth one is the S controller. Previously xbox controllers had either a dongle or a xbox proprietary signal.
Thank you. OMG, I'm was googling X Box One S Wallace and couldn't find it...I misheard you, lol; you were saying wireless, lol. If I get this, I'm totally naming my controller Wallace, lol.

I love how you showed how to pair each one 👍🏿
My dualshock wont connect.
It shows itself ready for pairing, but when clicking on it: „something went wrong“ ???
Same
What about the Ouya controller? 🤔
Sorry bro, I don't have that controller []-)
It works in games, using it now, still need oculus remote to get back to home screen though.
7531monkey Are you serious? I was only joking about that. Lol.
This video helped me a lot because I just clicked on it to find out how to connect a controller but I also found out which controller to use

If it's a bluetooth controller then it should be fine. Please let me know if you have success with it []-)
Go Xbox
I have Steelseries and while it's nice the shoulder button have issues
Do some research and you find lots of people have issues with gearvr apps that use the shoulder buttons such as Vendetta space sim ect.
Basically you have to add in deadband or expo to soften the first 15 percent of buttons travel but this doesnt always work.
I can no longer use my Steelseries since I have not been able to adjust the deadband after the triggers stayed always on.
Thanks for letting me know mate []-)

I am disappointed with mine.
I should have listened to by buddy and bought an Xbox controller but I liked the 2 sticks being close together for flight sims
thank you, as usual that was a very helpful video. Happy New Year!
any chance tested the steelseries nimbus controller
Sorry bro, only these four I had []-)
Thank you for doing this. I was able to connect the Steelseries, but I think I will get the XBox 1s, I like the feel of that one more.
Great job!

Thanks! can you do a video about best gamepad games for the go? I hear good things about Witchblood
Yeah, I might do a video covering that soon []-)
Can you make zooming out with any of this controllers when you are viewing a video? with te oculus go controller there is no option.. i think...
I don't think so mate []-)
Can you only use the xbox controller with certain games? I have connected mine to my Oculus Go as I can see it on the controller screen, but it doesn't seem to be working!! Does it not allow you to navigate the home menus?
You can navigate the menus with it, you have to look with your head to move the cursor and use the A button to confirm []-)
Sorted. I've got it working now.
Great video. Super informative and just what I was looking for. Xbox 1S controller it is!
Cant get it to work. i paired a brand new xbox one s controller successful via the Ios app but the the xbox logo on the controller just keeps flashing slowly and nothing happens. What must i do?

Does the remote that comes with the oculus suck so bad that I must buy the xbox remote or is it just preference?
After doing some testing of my own the Moga Pro Power gamepad works fantastic and I am super excited that the Go doesn't have the input lag sound delay that my GearVR has on Oculus Arcade, but I had 1 question.... did you find a way to go back and pick new arcade cabinets once you are in?

So Xbox one controller connects or one s since I have a one
Thanks for the video. Would I also need to buy a Microsoft Xbox Wireless adapter for Windows 10?
not with the S controller, it has bluetooth

Am I missing a step? I see the controller is paired on the Oculus app on my iPhone, but that's it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
Does it have to be an “S” controller? Can I use a Xbox one controller?

Virtual Reality Oasis they suspect nothing the ramapge movie one elevator to the Moon dead and buried and blade runner all look interesting
I may have a 'They Suspect Nothing' video coming soon ;)
Virtual Reality Oasis awesome!
Super cool Go videos! Great to watch while I get mine (it's on its way). Really hoping it'll work with my older iPega phone controller. It should, but you never know.
I hope it arrives soon Marcus! The hype is real []-)
for the stratuse x L series, how much $
i need help I have a sn30 pro 8 bit do a steel series a ps4 and a switch pro i dont mind the swapped button config i just want to play emulators
Darn, only have the PS4 controller :P guess i'll have to deal with the weird controls or try to find some solution...Probably going to end up getting an Xbox controller, as I planned on getting one for PC games anyways. Great video Mike, i'm loving the GO coverage so far!
(by the way I really want a Mike eating popcorn in VR pillow)
Hahaha maybe one day your dreams will come true []-)
where is the pair newgamepadd option ??
Can you do this without a phone? (using oculus touch) I just went to my store to buy a gamepad and had the sudden realisation that the controllers don't come with a bluetooth connector or cables.. I am using a PC, does it just automatically connect just like the touch controllers or what?
Every Time I try to connect to the PS4 controller or the Nintendo controller doesn’t work said something went wrong is it because I did i did it on iphone
Does the 8-Bit do controller work
duke doo yes but you have to do Start+A to pair it
Hello,
I can not use my "xbox one s": no key works
sometimes there is a key (A) that works, but that's it.
I tried with VR RALLY for example.
does it depend on the games?
what is the name of the game (car race) that we see on the screen?
thank you for helping me
Christian
does this work for the oculus quest
The song names is Hotshot 2 - Niklas Ahlström in case anyone wanted to know, sick video BTW, i own 2 of the controllers you reviewed, i use one called a beboncool. Its pretty cool.
Good spot! []-)
Thanks for this
You're welcome dude! []-)
If I lost my hand controller to my VR , am I sol ?
Very helpful, thanks.
Just lost my Oculus Go Original Controller... Will have another look, otherwise it's £25 for a new one from the store, or I may just go try one of these recommended controllers... If anyone sees this, can you control the whole Oculus Go system with one of these, (or use menu screens, browser, etc) or do I need the original controller for this ?
No, you will need a replacement Oculus Go controller I'm afraid as you can't use the control pad for every game []-)
I'm guessing you still need the original controller for stuff like altspace and Oculus rooms...
KIN looks gorgeous!
It’s quite hard but very fun. I’d totally recommend it []-)
When I pair my Xbox One, or Switch Pro to my GO, I get mixed results. is there anyway to fix the issues? I get LAG with the PRO, and some buttons not working (LT RT) on the Xbox controller.
Great vid again. Thank you
Thanks dude! []-)
What games were you playing?
8BitDo
Thanks for this helpful video! It'd be great if you could update this for the popular SF30 Pro and SN30 Pro 8BitDo third party controllers. Cheers
Thanks for the suggestions mate []-)
Ordering my stealseries now, ty Mike, u rock 😎
Have fun Mike! Great name btw []-)
