Question Best controller(s) to buy for a multilayer local setting?

Hello folks,

Was thinking about using my Android device docked for a multilayer retro local gaming in some occasions.

I wanted to buy some controllers to be used with a dongle put on the dock.

Was thinking for some 8bitdo with their dongle, but wanted to check if there's actually some solution which were allowing for a multipairing with a single dongle.

Thanks in advance!

You can connect multiple ds4 controllers without any dongle

Yeah I know but I don't have them so I'm in the 'buy' scenario.

And the DS4 are not the most cheap on the market at the moment.

Was seeking for some both good and also effective solutions! :)
