Questions & Answers

You can wow this guy with a shoryuken, can't you?

There is no comparison to this gamepad since it is faster than the ps4, xbox x, and 8bitdo controllers wirelessly or wired out there, and it even beats the original NES

Can you tell me how long the USB cable is? (I don't know anything about Japanese, so I am unable to find it on either Amazon or Buffalo's site). ?

It is about six feet long, but I do not have a measuring tape in front of me.

Can anyone tell me if it works on an Android emulator?

I can confirm that Android works perfectly. On my GS6 with an OTG hub, I used it a lot. Whenever I use RetroArch and any emulators/games I throw at it, it always works as expected. The software works well on Windows 10 as well as

What is the maximum amount of dust this can hold before it fails to hold any more Does it function?

There is no right or wrong answer since it all depends on the type of Dorito you are eating. If you choose the Cool Ranch formulation, you should be able to get more mileage out of it than if you choose the more traditional Nacho formulation.

Selected User Reviews For Buffalo iBuffalo Classic USB Gamepad for PC

This is a great solution for Raspberry Pi and RetroPie (see my "Tips for RetroPie" article)
5/5

Originally published in 2016, this review has been updated in 2017. The information contained in it is no longer accurate, so I will be re-editing it. I feel the same way about the product It is no longer relevant to use the technical information I gave. The new version of RetroPie is smarter and doesn't require configuration file fiddling. All of you are appreciated for the Helpful votes and It does not matter if you are using a Linux or Mac. This had to be a Raspberry Pi that I The cons are In all the instructions, there are a number of things to consider The Japanese language. Nevertheless, they don't have any relevance for you, so what's the point? Among the Pros It's tough out there. Despite being dropped so many times, there isn't a scratch on it. It feels sturdy and won't break apart if you torque it heavily during aggressive gameplay. This is going to weigh you down. You don't have to carry too much, and not too little either. It doesn't need to be installed with Good length cord. Good button feel when you press them. I like the way the buttons feel. It has the same layout as the Super NES controller, so it should be familiar to you. It's at a decent price. Here are some tips A total of 10 buttons are present, but only 8 are labelled Because Turbo and Clear work as modifier buttons, not as action buttons, you cannot use the so-called "button" gamepad. There is no evidence that these buttons are visible to the operating system. Whenever you try to configure a gamepad in EmulationStation or any other configuration tool, you will not see the Turbo and Clear buttons. In the controller itself are the turbo and clear functions. You can apply turbo by pressing the following buttons To apply Turbo, press the button to which you want it to go. Thus, you need to enable acceleration for button A by pressing For A, you clear + A to turn off turbo. If you have chosen adaptive turbo, you can apply it independently, so you can have it on for A and X, but turn it off for B and In order to operate this (and all) controller, you need to take two actions Playing games requires two separate emulators, one for EmualtionStation (the menu system). It's easy to do the first one since you're guided by a graphical tool. In order to modify the settings, you have to edit a text file. If you already have it configured for games, some emulators - such as the SNES emulator - will have messed up buttons. A different driver needs to be used to fix this issue. Therefore, to fix BOTH issues, you need to take the following steps (1) Exit EmulationStation to the console, then optionally launch LX (startx)(2) Add The input_player1_down_axis must be "1" and the input_player1_left_axis must be "-" In the left-hand corner of By pressing the front button, you will exit out of a game and be taken back to the EmulationStation main You can access the in-depth information by clicking the right button Although up/down on the gamepad doesn't change menu items, up/down on the gamepad changes the main menu. A side effect of using the above linuxraw driver might be that. If you want to make some changes to the linuxraw line, comment it out, or focus on changing the other in-lining lines A menu appears when the game is started. This was a labor of love for me, so I'm hoping this will save others lots of time if they have trouble figuring it out.

This product has exceptional quality and a superb You won't find a better tribute to the original! An original SNES usb controller I bought for 50 bucks from Infinite Nes Lives is with me
5/5

Despite the exceptional quality of that controller, the price tag proved to be rather steep. I was looking for a second SNES pad for 2 player action, but I couldn't justify paying another $50, so I decided to do some research and discovered just how popular Buffalo is among new and old gamers alike. I couldn't resist the price, and I bought one right away. br>br>I'm glad to report that this product is flawless and extremely satisfying to use. Based on side-by-side comparisons with the original Japan controller (as noted by numerous reviewers on this site), the Buffalo controller is slightly lighter, slightly thinner, and compared with the original Famicom pad, the dpad is slightly elevated on the Buffalo It is very marginal in comparison and the buffalo controller is noticeably lighter in weight. It is the only real difference that I can notice with my seasoned retro gaming hands. A roll of lead tape has been ordered, I will weigh out a strip of that and apply it to the inside wall of the back half of the controller so that it matches the weight of the original. The only small thing I would change is It is difficult to find anything to complain about in terms of picking. I would move the turbo buttons a bit higher up on the centre of the game pad, if I had to change anything. Since they're easy to press instead of start/select, I might remove all of them. I don't actually use the buttons, so I may just decide to remove them them all. Please find attached several photos comparing the weight of the 2 game pads and the thickness of the controller at various points. If you want a replica that is remarkably close to the dimensions of the original Super Famicom game pad, this is the one to get. Although there are minor differences between a real one and this one in terms of price, the difference is FAR beyond what you'd consider diminishing returns, unless you are a collector, and in that case, you most likely already own one or more of the originals.

Inputs that look like ghosts or phantoms on Retropie
3/5

As much as I regret writing this mediocre Buffalo review, I can't help myself. You can feel how well constructed this controller is in your hands, responsive, and feels great in your hands. Soon after connecting the controller to my retropie, it would start randomly moving up/down/left/right through the menus every minute or two. You can find the Fox controller online by looking up "ghost input" or "phantom input". The problem I face is not unique to me. Despite unplugging and plugging back in, I could not get it to work. Lastly, I tried using the other controller in the hope that just the one was faulty, but that was unsuccessful as well. I would steer clear of this controller if you are planning on using it with a retropie.
