Stadia is shutting down in January of next year and people are getting refunds for their software and hardware purchases. If you bought a Stadia controller does the shutdown mean the controller is now trash? Let's talk about it!

*UPDATE!*
Google released a firmware update for the Stadia controller that enables Bluetooth connectivity. I have a video available on the (incredibly easy) process via the link below.

If you're wondering if this works via. Bluetooth on the Nintendo Switch, it doesn't. At least not natively. You'll need something like the 8bitdo USB-bluetooth adapter (v2) which has a beta firmware that has proven to be very promising with connecting the Stadia controller with the Switch.
