It's a bit of a mind-melter to consider, but this console generation is already at least halfway done – the PlayStation 5 came out all the way back in 2020, and the PS5 Pro in 2024, meaning we're likely much closer to the PS6 than you might first assume. While rumours abound about what it'll change on the technical side, and how it'll move things forward in terms of fidelity and possible portability, I've been testing a new 8BitDo controller that shines a small light on one important feature.
The 8BitDo Pro 3 is the latest version of 8BitDo's retro-inspired controller lineup, and it's a bit of a barnstormer if you want a Bluetooth controller for your PC or Nintendo Switch (or indeed Switch 2). It has really fun stylings that make it look like exactly what it is – a retro controller with all the modern mod cons that you'd hope for.
