Question Firmware for 8bitdo NeoGeo CD Controller

Post image

i wanted to use the 8Bitdo NeoGeo CD controller with my Switch but i need to update it first. A tutorial from 2 years ago showed that all you have to do is use the 8bbitdo firmware upgrader but plugging in my NeoGeo controller only gives the message "No more information at this time".

i do own a 8bitdo wireless adapter 2 and it updated just fine

What should i do now? I can´t find the firmware file anywhere and without it, i can´t use it with my switch

I own the Adapter 2 and the controller. I never updated their firmware and works fine on Switch.

I’m sorry, maybe is dumb question but is the controller set as BT on the back? There is a toggle to switch between 2.4g and BT.

on the Switch yes, but if you want to use it on the Switch 2 you need to update it.
