This controller almost matches the original SNES controller in terms of performance
4/5

While playing analogue games on the SNES or when using the Analogue Super NT, this controller is the best. It does not appear to be a lag from my perspective. There are also some games that benefit from an analog stick was worried the sticks would make it difficult to enjoy the classic experience, so I'm glad to hear that. Having a USB port and having a decent battery life makes the device appealing This controller has the C that should be expected and which is something not all controllers have, so I'm glad to see one with this feature. In terms of functionality, only downside is that this feels very light, which makes it feel cheap in the hand. is made out of plastic, and that gives it the idea of being a fast food toy, but the performance of the controller is not affected. It makes no sense to use the 8bitdo controller since they are unavailable. Play safely and enjoy the game! The buttons feel accurate, and everything works well.

An excellent controller, but with a few limitations
3/5

In terms of the controller itself, I like it. There are just a few things that bother me.

1. I was thinking of buying this game for my daughter, but she gave me a discount. A switch is needed to turn it on and off. It doesn't matter if you turn off your Switch the controller itself will remain on. A USB cable must be yanked out of the stand. On a PC it will time out, but not as easily as a USB cable. 2.

The experience of using the controller on my PC was a bit inconsistent. My only way to get it to work was to use Steam as the medium (it works with Steam). Apparently, it is a problem common to controllers that use switch pro technology the computer thinks I press a bunch of buttons at once. I installed BetterJoyforCemu, but it didn't resolve the problem as it often had lag and some strange clicks that seemed to appear by themselves. My original intention was to use it as a stand-in for a PS2 style controller with a prominent D pad for emulated games, but I have had to cut that idea short.

I'm satisfied with the way things are going so far
5/5

Although I've only used the controller for a couple hours, I can already tell it works great with an I was able to connect it quickly Despite not reading the instructions, I still did it. As with the SNES, I like how the left analog stick acts as a dpad, and how ZR and ZL act as R and L respectively. Like the original controller for the SNES, the dpad feels nice.

The first few weeks have been great
5/5

For more than a year, I have awaited the release of We are expecting to receive stock of the 4GHz soon. This is what I did when I was tired of waiting. Aside from working well, it also has a good I've tested it on my SNES and Switch and it's fine. If they make a version with no analog that works only with the SNES, I will be buying.

A great controller for the SNES
5/5

I use the Legacy 16 as my wireless controller for my Super Famicom and SNES, and it works flawlessly. Despite the fact that I wish they offered a wireless controller without the extra buttons as I'll never use this controller on anything other than the original console I never found the analog sticks, or extra buttons to be a hazard. As opposed to the 8bitdo SN30 Pro I was using, it does not register false diagonals in normal operation. There are only two things I wish were different about the wireless receiver the size and the extremely bright red LED.

A 4GHZ radio has an advantage over a Bluetooth one
5/5

As a heavy user of a raspberry pi setup using batocera/retropie, I find this controller absolutely In the past, when I used the bluetooth adapter for other controllers, such as the Sn30, there was noticeable lag. In this controller, I can play without lag and it is The second has been on my mind for a while now. I have had my eye on a USB 4Ghz solution for awhile now, and I'm really In addition to the Sega Genesis controllers, I would love to get my hands on those as well. We can only hope that one day they will make an 8-bit NES-inspired controller like this. It would be a no-brainer for me to purchase that.

I am not able to make it Does not connect to Nintendo so it runs in the 8 bit mode (so it cannot be used with any regular Nintendo, only Super Nintendo)

It works on some level, but on the whole it's really Because it said it could be used on the Raspberry Pi, I bought them
3/5

It's a bit like that. However, the joy sticks will not work despite what has been set up. Also, it does not allow you to press start and select to exit the game, so I am unable to select another game to play, so the controller is pretty much Truth be told, I am pretty pissed off.
