Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Beastron Classic Controller Pro - Console Gamepad/Joypad - Wired Controller for Nintendo Wii Wii U - White (1 Pack) by Corey Michaels

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A product of excellent quality, not exactly the same as the original version.

This controller arrived in excellent condition, nicely packaged. The material felt solid and high quality. I liked the light weight (no batteries compared to the Wiimote + Nunchuck) but to be honest the controller got uncomfortable in my hands after 30 minutes; It's probably because I'm not used to the classic X-Box/Playstation/etc controllers. It connected to my Wii remote with no problems and sat securely in the socket. The buttons responded well, bounced well, didn't stick and nothing like that. I would say that this controller is ideal for most games. I had a bit of an issue with it the week I was playing Mario Kart Wii and that was the only reason I bought it. About 4 times a week the accelerator button (which I held down for the entire race; 2-3 minutes) seemed to let go as long as I held it down. I found the joystick worked very well and was responsive to quick changes and jerky movements. The problem was that it lacked precision. I wasn't able to make small adjustments (arrangement for parking signs, etc.) as well as I could with a real Nintendo controller. For the most part (about 99% of its usage) the controller worked great and is worth it. 10 dollars. I ended up sending it back only because it lacked the precision I was used to.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine
