  • Love this controller.
First I'll call out the only negative aspect I found that doesn't really affect my use - the analog stick placement is weird. I don't use the sticks so it doesn't bother me, but I wouldn't recommend this controller if the games you are playing require analog sticks. That said, this controller works great! I play NES, SNES, Genesis, GBA, and PS1 games with it and the controls feel responsive on all platforms. D-pad feels good, ABXY buttons feel good, R and L buttons feel good. The controller weight is light but the build doesn't feel cheap. I also own a pair of wired 8bitdo controllers that cost more and I prefer these over the feel of the 8bitdo controller. I found the d-pad on the 8bitdo controllers to be hard and uncomfortable. ... show more

  • Great concept but lacking quality.
The media could not be loaded. The design is very similar to the original SNES controller. But the controller is made with very cheap materials. Definitely not worth 35 dollars. Over all it works good with my SNES and there no latency. I like the fact that it come with its own dongle for SNES and USB. ... show more

  • Worth it
I was initially hesitant with the mixed reviews, but I have had a great experience with these remotes. My scenario might be a little niche, but I'm sure some could relate. I've been doing retro gaming through my raspberry pi4. Initially I used the 8bitdo remotes. Don't get me wrong, those are fantastic remotes, however as finicky as the pi can be the system kept forgetting the 8bitdo remotes and I had to hop back into the Bluetooth menu to reconnect them, which is a huge hassle especially when you're trying to jump into retro game night with company. Finally I decided to cut corners and get remotes that hook up via USB dongle. After some light research I came across these. The mixed reviews left me hesitant, but as with most Amazon items you never really know until you experience it yourself. The packaging came intact and the remotes appeared to be in good condition. The hardware itself feels light, but the buttons are clicky and responsive. The stick feels tight and bounces back into the center no issues. An added bonus are the bumpers and triggers having their own rows as opposed to some models that line them up. My only nitpick are my big dumb adult fingers that crowd a little when trying to occupy all four buttons. But I know that's a common thing when you're going for this type of shape for a remote. The remotes arrived with some charge and I wasted no time plugging in the dongle and powering on the pi. After hitting the sync button on the dongle, the remote connected with zero issues. After configuring the inputs I hopped into several games. When testing remotes I like to hop into fighting games, and sure enough I felt no lag input which was something I had adjusted to with the 8bitdo remotes. The inputs were solid enough to land an ultra combo and so I spent the rest of the week putting in some gaming time. As for the battery life I can't say if the 6 or so hours are true. I've got a busy schedule that allows me an hour or 2 max of gaming per day, but they last those sessions no problem. I final note my pi is using the argon case. With 2 dongles and a third USB, its a little crowded but everything is reading perfectly. These remotes are absolutely fantastic and at this point I hope I can get a few years of use out them. ... show more

  • No problems here.
I'm running Batocera Linux(retro emulating Linux) on a Beelink mini computer that has an AMD Apu inside of it and that controller sinks up no problem. Great retro fun!

  • Works well with Super Console X Pro
I've had a little trouble finding controllers compatible with the Super Console X Pro but these work great! It's not in the directions so, if you have this console, here is the way to pair your new controller up; Plug the USB dongle in, press 'start' on the gamepad so that the light starts flashinh and then press the little button on the side of the USB dongle...it's not noticeable at first glance but it is there. Once you do this your controller should pair with the console almost instantly. Good quality pads for the price. ... show more

  • Absolute trash. Do Not Work.
I purchased two, Retro-Bit Legacy 16 Wireless 2.4GHz Controller for SNES and they do not work at all. I have tried updating the firmware and still nothing. The controllers will connect to the sensor but they do not register any button presses at all. I was attempting to use them with my Retro-Bit Super Retro Trio HD Plus so I would be able to play my games wirelessly. I contacted retro-bit customer service through their website and received an initial response and sent them an email reply and I have heard nothing back all week. So I will be spending part of my day off packaging these controllers to ship them back. This was the fourth time I have purchased a retro-bit product and the first time I have had to contact customer service for help. Due to their lack of response, this will be the last time I use retro-bit for any of my retro gaming needs. ... show more

  • Feels like it was built to last
Got this to play N64 and Dreamcast joystick games on my retropie build. So far it’s perfect; the sticks and buttons all feel right and responsiveness is great. It looks sleek, and it also fits in just fine with my other stickless SNES usb controllers on the shelf. Would recommend, and I’m probably going to purchase another to round out my controller count to 4. ... show more

  • Not perfect
In general, this is good. The quality is typical Retro-Bit: generally well made but with a slight feeling of cheapness. But two things are killing me. The analog sticks are too slippery and the A, B, X, Y buttons do not have enough height! The second is the biggest problem. The comparison with the original is in the shots. As we can see, the Legacy has slightly lower buttons. But when pressed, they do not protrude above the surface. I can't play comfortably with any game where I need to press A+B or B+Y. I hope in the next revision the height of the A, B, X, Y buttons gets fixed. ... show more
