    HORI, a manufacturer of popular gaming accessories

    if they’re so popular why have I never heard of them? especially as I’ve very recently researched PC gamepads and settled on an 8BitDo.

    HORI sounds like a bullshit throwaway Amazon brand.

    That said, I am very very eager for a gamepad which can do gyro aiming, have back buttons that actually function as additional buttons (as opposed to merely copies of other buttons), and do so over better-than-bluetooth wireless. Doesn’t look like this is that, though, so whatever

      HORI is a household name for fighting sticks btw, there’s some degree of quality asurance there. But for regular controllers I do think there are better alternatives.

      8BitDo is absolutely fantastic, loved using my Pro 2 because of the back buttons

      PC

      There’s your problem. They’ve been pretty well known in the console marketplace for a long time, and have peripherals dating back to the Super Nintendo.

      HORI has been around for a good whole, and they make what are arguably the best aftermarket Nintendo switch controllers.
