As of Firmware v3, you can use your **wired** STRIKEPACK™ Eliminator-enabled Xbox® controller with your **Switch™** or **Switch 2™** console!

* Fully supported; both in **Tournament Mode** & <mark style="color:green;">**New Experience M.O.D. Mode**</mark>.
  * **Map** the **Action Buttons** in **Mapping Mode**.
  * Use **any** included **M.O.D.s** (**M**acros **O**n **D**emand), including features like **Macro Editor**.
* Stick inputs have been optimized for smooth controls.
* Works in Switch™ 1 or 2 games that support the Switch™ Pro controller.
* 3.5mm headset audio through your Xbox® controller.
* There are limitations of course, like an Xbox® controller doesn't have HD Rumble or Motion Control.

{% step %}
To use the Strikepack Eliminator in **Switch™ 1 & 2 Mode**, you must first go to your Switch™ 1 or 2 console's **System Settings**, then make sure **Controller and Sensors > Pro Controller Wired Communication** is set to **On**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <img src="/files/WKxGM5nEvfMbZOqHLzmA" alt="" data-size="line"><mark style="color:$danger;">**Hold**</mark>**&#x20;Action Buttons 1** & **3&#x20;**<mark style="color:$danger;">**together**</mark> while connecting the cable to your Switch™ 1 or 2 console or dock.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
You should now be able to control your Switch™ 1 or 2 console with your STRIKEPACK™-enabled Xbox® controller.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Alternatively, if the Strikepack is plugged in already, you can restart it for Switch™ 1 & 2 Mode use without re-plugging. See below:

While <img src="/files/WKxGM5nEvfMbZOqHLzmA" alt="" data-size="line"><mark style="color:$danger;">**holding**</mark> **Action Buttons 1** & **3&#x20;**<mark style="color:$danger;">**together**</mark>, <img src="/files/WKxGM5nEvfMbZOqHLzmA" alt="" data-size="line"><mark style="color:$danger;">**hold**</mark> the **Restart** button (top-right-hand unlabeled button) for <mark style="color:$danger;">**500ms+**</mark>. When your controller turns off, release the Restart button.
2. Wait a moment until the Gearhead Eyes cycle, and the STRIKEPACK™ Eliminator restarts into **Tournament Mode**, then release the Action Buttons.
3. <img src="/files/WKxGM5nEvfMbZOqHLzmA" alt="" data-size="line"><mark style="color:$danger;">**Hold**</mark> the <img src="/files/S62hVIAQ7xHSFUFPYR6S" alt="" data-size="line"> **Home&#x20;**<mark style="color:$info;">**(Xbox®)**</mark> button until your controller turns back on.
4. You should now be able to control your Switch™ 1 or 2 console with your STRIKEPACK™-enabled Xbox® controller.
5. If desired, <img src="/files/FTIPMMo2lFVsDuBcyTX7" alt="" data-size="line">**press & release** the **top 2 unlabeled buttons simultaneously** to switch to <mark style="color:green;">**M.O.D. Mode**</mark>.
6. If you experience any noticeable drift, you can use your console's **Controller and Sensors > Calibrate Control Sticks** feature. Happy gaming!
