The GameSir Super Nova gaming controller supports PC, Nintendo Switch, and iOS/Android smartphones and tablets. It offers three connection options: wireless Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and wired via USB Type-C. For optimal performance, use the wired or 2.4GHz wireless modes, which provide ultra-low latency and a 1000Hz polling rate.

Super Nova Compatibility with Switch 2

The Super Nova works with the Switch 2 console through both wired and wireless connections. However, it does not support amiibo functionality and cannot wake the console from sleep. You may also notice that the button layout follows the Xbox standard, meaning the "X and Y" and "A and B" buttons are reversed compared to a Joy-Con. This isn't an issue, as the button caps are interchangeable.

Unlike many standard controllers, including first-party options, the GameSir Super Nova features Hall-Effect joysticks and triggers to prevent stick drift. The thumbsticks come with anti-friction rings, and the triggers have two travel length settings (short and long) that can be switched instantly. The back buttons are programmable, and the ABXY layout can be customized to your preference. Powered by a 1,000mAh battery (though exact battery life is unspecified), the controller includes a dock with pogo pins for effortless charging—no cables needed.

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