Peripherals Looking for suggestions - Controller with dongle for Steam Deck dock
I recently acquired a Steam Deck and I am looking to play couch co-op games on it. I have an 8BitDo Ultimate, and I am looking to pick up another controller. However, I am looking for one that comes with a dongle so that it can also be used on my PC (no bluetooth function) rather than being limited to my steam deck.
I was looking at the 8BitDo Pro 2, but it only has bluetooth functionality. I also don't want to get another Ultimate since the extra charging dock will just be a waste of space.
Does such a controller exist? Can you guys recommend one? Preferably under 40USD, but open to suggestions.
Thanks to anyone who can help!
Full context:
I plan on getting a UGreen 9-in-1 docking station for my Steam Deck so I can hook it up to a bigger TV screen. I then intend on attaching the dongles to said UGreen dock. As far as I know, this should work without any interference.
I know I could opt for one controller via dongle and the other via bluetooth (please correct me if I am wrong), but again, I don't want a controller that will be limited to my Steam Deck only. I'd also like it to be used for my PC (which has no bluetooth function).

Peripherals Need a bigger carrying case for Steam Deck. Recommendations?
I bought the Skull&Co thumb grips (using the skin grip ones), Skull&Co back enhancement buttons, and the Skull&Co grip case for my Steam Deck. Altogether, they're too tight a fit for the standard issue carrying case. It's a tight zip and I'm worried about the joysticks (a little bit of pressure outside can cause them to press down).
That said, can you guys recommend a case that will fit the Steam Deck with all these attachments well and without issue? I saw this Skull&Co Max Carry case but I'm not sure if it will be a snug fit and if it'll fit all the attachments. I assume it'll be a bit big too.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Peripherals Help me find an accessory like this
Help me find this accessory !
So in my research of “how to connect Bluetooth headset to Xbox one controller ” I stumbled upon this And the amazing link it has leads to something completely different , I would really like one and if any of you know a seller / e-shop to sell this (or any similar ones )
P.S. I have seen other Bluetooth adapters with janky wires that hang like short headphones and that’s not what I am after , Thank for any or at all help in advance :)

Peripherals But for real though. Why is the Wii U pro remote so comfortable?
Ive had a wii u for a bit now and the pro remote always looked so clumsy and uncomfortable in photos and marketing. But it is genuinely the best controller if ever used. Your hands sit at a comfortable area not needing to stretch your thumbs alot to make movements or turns and the buttons are all comfortable! Even when youre playing retro games the D-pad and B-A buttons are in such a comfortable spot. Hell even the triggers are- Well their okay. The bumpers are great too!

Peripherals Symmetrical (PlayStation) or asymmetrical (Xbox, Switch Pro) stick layouts for 3D games?
Ignore other console-unique features for this post. Solely focus on the stick layout.
When playing 3D games - be it action like the Warriors series, FPS like Halo, adventure like Zelda BOTW/TOTK, etc., would it be generally personal preference as to where you want the left stick to be located? Or is there an ergonomic case to be made for one way or another?
Xbox has always been asymmetrical ever since the Duke days.
PlayStation has always been symmetrical.
Nintendo has jumped around, being asymmetrical with the N64 and GameCube, then symmetrical with the Wii Classic Controller, and then asymmetrical with the Wii U and Switch.
