The 8BitDo Micro Bluetooth gamepad drops to $15 ahead of Prime Day

Amazon Prime Day deals are already popping up online, and one of the best ones we've found so far is on a teeny, tiny 8BitDo controller. The 8BitDo Micro Bluetooth gamepad is on sale for only $15 right now, which is $10 off its usual price and a record low. It comes in green and blue, but the discount only applies to the former.

While designed for the Nintendo Switch and Android devices, the Micro should also work well with devices like iPhones and even in the Steam Deck. The company also released a firmware update for Switch 2 compatibility, so that should work too

This is an extremely tiny gamepad that still manages to pack in 16 buttons. It's a near-perfect way to play retro-tinged 2D platformers. Did we mention it's small? This thing will easily fit in a pocket or just about anywhere else. The company wasn't kidding around when they named it Micro.

There's one caveat. The diminutive size of the 8BitDo Micro doesn't allow for actual joysticks and there's no haptic engine for rumble or anything like that. This isn't the best controller for brand-new AAA games, so just keep that in mind.
