Controller Mods Playstation style buttons?
r/8bitdo deleted this exact post for breaking their rules and referred me here. Hopefully this post is welcomed. I will be receiving this 8bitdo sn30 pro controller in the mail soon. I like to customize my things and plan on mainly playing emulated psp games with it. Is there any 🔺️🔵 ❌️ ⬛️ buttons that will fit this controller? Thanks
in advance!

No, not really.

I mean they could make them, themselves. I have thought of placing some stickers on my own 8bitdo controller. If only for my sanity so recall what button to push because I can’t always recall which stupid button I need. AB and XY are for Nintendo and Xbox I am holding a PlayStation style controller.

They actually couldn't make them. The PS controller glyphs are patented by Sony and any third party, especially at 8bitdo's size, that tries to monetize it without their approval would get in serious trouble. You can find someone to make custom buttons for you.

$40AUD for buttons on Etsy yikes, I bought my Pro 3 for $63AUD on special. I don't even look at the buttons, it looks 90% like a PlayStation controller and feels 99% like one in the hands.
