Not really. 8BitDo really blew it with the Ultimate. They confusingly have two different "versions" of it, and neither have the full range of device compatibility that previous 8BitDo controllers had. The most egregious exclusion from the Ultimate was Xinput over Bluetooth. I still have no idea why they decided to drop that.
If this new controller has Xinput over Bluetooth, all of the compatibility from above, and a strong battery life, it might be a day 1 buy. It will have hall effect sticks, so this sounds like everything I wanted the 8BD Ultimate to be. I hope there aren't any showstoppers once reviews start coming out.
