@coolboymew This is why I don't trust wireless controllers on PC.

@coolboymew I just don't like having to correctly pair the two devices. If you also own the respective console, you need to make sure the controller doesn't turn the console on when using it with a PC.

@xianc78 but that's already what's happening. With the 8bit doh retro receiver, it didn't change the power button, it was still tied to the Wii U. Now it's completely tied to the PC
Corded controllers just have better latency and you don't have fiddle with 5 step Bluetooth setup.
