I can't imagine a better way to pair them with Retropie. Everything works out beautifully with the bindings. As well as testing these controllers on a PC, I also tested Nestopia on the machine-- Keys bind great, all keys work as expected. Eventually, I ended up buying a second pair for use with a Raspberry Pi/NES project.

How I appreciate these controllers is the fact that they have wiring. In the long run, the wireless controllers will ultimately be a crutch if you lose the controller after playing for a long period, and you will have to stop everything you're doing to recharge Despite the many positives of these controllers, they have one significant drawback they're NES controllers were a lot more stiff than the originals. As a result, you may not be as accurate in certain situations, such as when running or jumping in Mario games, as you would be There is such a limited market for NES/Pi/Retropie controllers, and they're neglected to the point where your options are few and far between, and you're stuck with what you have. Read this if you use Retropie! Note that you will need a separate controller (such as a PS4/XBOX controller) to plug into the player 2 spot in order to function past the key bindings screen if you're looking to make an NES emulator with these controllers. If you do not, you will bind to all keys on your controller, and you will not be able to proceed past the remainder of the button types, since "hold any button to skip" instructions do not work when used You'll be able to scroll all the way to the bottom of that game using the second controller so you don't have to worry about these other worthless keybinds. It took me a lot of trial and error to discover all of this, and I wanted to share it with you.

You should be able to plug it in and start using it. I don't believe that is true.

Although I'm not a novice when it comes to computers, I'm new to trying to figure out how to set up and configure emulators and control pads under windows and Linux. Higan was easy to install and run games with, and the documentation was quite thorough. Google searches and trial and error led to a painful result. (Even after mapping the inputs in the emulator settings and the well documented 2 step process of mapping these controllers), I was unable to get them to work. I still cannot get the program to It was only then that I realised

He has to map the individual buttons and the direction of the gamepad controller in the input settings (initial setting
is none, but afterward shows up like a I will then do y). While I felt foolish that I didn't realize this earlier, I was close to returning my items thinking they were defective. Therefore, I thought I would share it with you. This works beautiful now and is way cheaper than an NES Mini, as Higan and the games are available for.

Furthermore, the price is much lower than original controllers, so there is no complaint there.

Wireless Bluetooth connectivity usually results in minimal lag response time while playing RetroPie/Emulationstation games with 8bitdo Pro controllers, but most retro games are still playable even with that technology. A noticeable delay has been observed for at least one game The Kung-Fu A game made for NES called Fu. I decided to purchase these wired controllers because it is so bad. As a result, I'm happy to report that the lag response time has been drastically reduced! Although not completely gone, it's significantly more responsive to quick movements sides to sides. Side movements, jumps, and punches and kicks are easier to control with this controller than with the wireless 8bitdo. The 8bitdo Pro wireless controllers would be my preferred choice for most retro games. I can easily justify the price. I would recommend these wired controllers. If I run across any other NES titles with noticeable lag response, I will gladly switch to these wired USB controllers.

I like it because it feels the same.

I use these controllers to control my retro game station I built out of a Raspberry Pi. They are very inexpensive, easy to use, and work well with the Raspberry Pi. Furthermore, it can emulate games for the Game Boy Advance as well as play a few arcade titles. Since the game controllers have only four buttons, not including the AB button, they are limited in their functionality. You will not find any trigger buttons or other controls. There is similarity in the feel of the controller to the original controller, except it feels lighter and cheaper in some ways. I would say that this cable would not reach your couch from your TV because it is too short. Plug and play is pretty much what it is. Although I have found the default controls to work for me, you can tweak them to fit your preferences. I regret the fact that these controllers don't work for the NES classic, and their plugs are different from what the classic has, which is The SNES classic did work with it, but the number of buttons was limited. This controller looks similar to the originals, but it lacks the user interface of a USB-connected controller. Overall, they are great for simulations or games that involve more than one player.

It seems that these controllers work really well with pc jnes emulators
They seem to be great controllers for the money.
