For me, the big winner available under $50 is the original 8BitDo Ultimate, which has dropped to a value-beating $44.99 (was $69.99) at Amazon, and includes a carrying case. Or, for a few dollars more, you can get the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 for just $47.99 (was $59.99), though sadly, there’s no carry case here. Can’t win ’em all.

Elsewhere, the GameSir Kaleid, one of my favorite Xbox and PC controllers, has plummeted to a record low of $39.99 (was $59.99). Naturally, you can’t count out ol’ reliable; the Xbox Wireless Controller is available for $39.99 (was $64.99), too.
