The perfect retro controller for your emulator

This is the perfect companion for your Raspberry Pi with RetroPie or Recal Box. Exact height and width of the SNES controller but slightly thicker to accommodate L2 and R2. The analog sticks aren't as tall as their Dual Shock or Xbox One counterparts, but they're really good. Also very well built. I rarely had to charge it either. The battery life is very good. The only thing I wish it had was six buttons on the face and four buttons on the shoulder so it could be the perfect Sega Genesis…

Pros
  • Enjoy
Cons
  • Reliability

Not suitable for PC gaming

If you plan to use it as a Bluetooth controller for your PC, don't worry. There is something called X-Input that your computer requires and it doesn't work over bluetooth with this controller. This should have been explained loud and clear in the item description, but it's missing - I think it's intended to trick people into buying. When connected via Bluetooth, all your buttons don't show up properly and you'll need to download third-party software to remap the buttons to mimic X typing so…

Pros
  • Hands-free
Cons
  • Volume

is this a bad joke?

Button labeled A sends B. Button labeled B sends A. Button labeled X sends Y. Button labeled Y sends X. Currently there is NO WAY to fix this. Some posts on Reddit say it's because the XBox controller only has button labels. I checked the XBox controller and the button labeled A sends A and the button labeled B sends B. The buttons should send codes corresponding to their LABELs. Everything else looks fine. Pairs easily with my computer in X mode. When paired with a computer in Android mode…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Nothing

My new favorite controller

Pros: Amazing, fun, cool, RetroCon :D Pad is a bit cheesy (see penultimate paragraph for details, it's not that bad) This controller is phenomenal! I've tried too many third-party controllers over the years to count. Most of the time they worked fine. However, they always had a feature that I really wanted but was missing elsewhere. Be it button response, ergonomics, joystick tension, connection reliability, there was always something annoying, 8BITDO really nailed it with this one! It has all…

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Only available in white

95% fidelity

Excellent controller. I use it for all my retro games. Input lag is practically zero and the controller feels great in your hands. The XYAB buttons look just as amazing as they did on the first Nintendo controller. The joysticks are a bit too high for my liking, but I mostly use the SNES controller, so that's not a problem. My only complaints relate to the cross. The D-Pad sits higher on the gamepad than the actual SNES controller, which might seem a bit strange. The second complaint is that…

Pros
  • Wide compatibility
Cons
  • Socket required

Not perfect, but perfect for the Switch.

Well I've had a couple of these controllers for a few weeks - I've tested them. For the most part, the SN30 Pro is a fantastic controller, especially when paired with the Switch. Pros:* The form factor is a proven winner. If you like the SNES controller, the SN30 Pro is a great addition to the compact and efficient SNES controller that hit the market in the early '90s. It's the right weight and feels good in your hand.* The most portable and comprehensive controller I've ever used. Pop it in…

I love this controller. I was excited to buy this controller for two reasons: 1) because it looks like a Super Nintendo controller, which is one of my favorite designs for retro gaming, and 2) because it looked like a great all-around controller to play with could work different devices. I'd like to first discuss the design and then explain how it works with all of my devices, but if you want a quick overview this is a great controller that works well with all of my devices and is a joy to use.

Pros
  • Retro design
Cons
  • So far so good
