The GameSir Super Nova is a versatile controller for PC, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android devices. It supports tri-mode connectivity: Bluetooth, a low-latency 2.4GHz wireless dongle, or a wired USB-C connection. For competitive gaming, the wired and 2.4GHz modes are ideal, delivering ultra-low latency with a 1000Hz polling rate.

Super Nova Compatibility with Switch 2

The Super Nova controller is fully compatible with the Nintendo Switch 2 via both wired and wireless connections. Please note it does not support amiibo functionality and cannot wake the console from sleep. The button layout follows the Xbox convention, meaning the 'A/B' and 'X/Y' positions are swapped compared to a standard Joy-Con. This is easily remedied, as the magnetic button caps are interchangeable.

The GameSir Super Nova sets itself apart with Hall-Effect technology in its joysticks and triggers, virtually eliminating stick drift. The thumbsticks feature anti-friction rings, and the triggers have a switch to toggle between short and long travel distances. It includes programmable back buttons and customizable ABXY button layouts. Powered by a 1000mAh battery, the controller conveniently charges on its included dock via pogo pins.

Additional premium features include quiet membrane buttons for late-night sessions, rubberized grips, interchangeable faceplates, RGB lighting, adjustable dual vibration motors, a 6-axis gyroscope, and dead zone customization.
