So far so good. Also works on Atari 2600 and Retron 5!

So far, so good. The controller works well, although it feels a bit cheap. The PAIRING was an issue until I realized the directions were wrong. After connecting the receiver to the console port and pressing the start button on your controller (turning it on), you need to PRESS AND HOLD THE SYNC BUTTON ON THE RECEIVER AND THEN PRESS THE START BUTTON ON THE CONTROLLER. The biggest plus about this controller (which I've been waiting for) is that you can use the controller with your original Segaโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

An essential item for your Genesis or Genesis mini.

I love this controller. Works great with my Genesis mini and my original Genesis 1. I updated the firmware for both receivers before getting started. It should be noted that on the Genesis mini you normally press and hold the start button for a few seconds to exit the game you are playing and get into the Genesis mini menu. With this controller, you can just press the select button, which is easier. If you're using Project Lunar with Genesis mini in games where you're using a different coreโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

Do you need a button mapping for Nintendo Switch

I do not recommend this if you are buying it to use with Switch like I did. I have a collection of Sega classics and it's completely useless for these games. There is no in-game button mapping option, nor can you map this controller through the Switch settings. That means you're stuck with a crappy layout for this collection. There are other Sega Ages games I've been wanting to buy but can't seem to place them correctly. The "C" and "Z" keys are mapped to "ZL" and "RL" making the standard Segaโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Weak Set

Works great on a custom Neo Geo MVS

I recently purchased a custom Neo Geo MVS console in stainless steel. It has controller ports for the original Neo Geo, Sega Saturn, Sega Genesis, and PlayStation 2. I can't find any Neo Geo wireless controllers and highly doubt they ever existed. I used PlayStation 2 wireless controllers a few years ago, but everything I could find now runs on two AAA batteries. I wanted a solution that would work with my ports and reload. This gave me a choice of retro-bit Sega Genesis (this model) orโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Can't remember exactly

Not great but not terrible

I recently bought this wireless controller for my PC and was hoping it would work with my Atari too. Great news! It works. So let's start with the good things: the visuals and packaging are superb. It comes with a nice case that contains the controller, 2 keys, USB cable and manual. It works with a variety of systems including the Atari 2600 and 7800 (with just one button). I have yet to test on my Atari computer and the original Genesis, but they should work fine on them too. Now for someโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Quality
