Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the long cord length and the functionality as positive aspects of the Wired Controller for NES Classic Edition, finding it to be a good, affordable option that works well for multiplayer gaming and provides a familiar feel. However, some customers express concerns about the controller's perceived lower quality compared to the original and report experiencing occasional lag or response time issues. The overall experience appears to be a mixed bag, with strong opinions on both sides.

    I bought 2 of them because the original ones were small. This 10' long is great because you don't need a extension cord. Its durabale and feels like the original one.

    Bought this because of the long cord. Even though its perfect, I should have just bought an extra original controller and gotten the extenders anyways...

    This is how video game controllers should be - simple and easy to use. This one was easy and should be a no brainer for anyone who owns an NES Classic.

    Bought this for the long cord factor and actually bought two for optimum usage! Both work great and quality seems so good do far. Buy this as you need the long cord!

    I’ve got the regular Nintendo controller and this one, and this one sees to have occasional issues (for example: I’m pressing right and jump and the character jumps straight up instead of up and right). It works well 99% of the time, but that 1% annoyed me so badly I ordered a second official Nintendo controller.

    The controller was perfect as a second controller for our NES system. The controller response time was excellent and the long cord made it easy to use the system.

    The console only comes with one controller so a second is a must for two player games. The cords are short so I also recommend purchasing the extension cords which come two to a pack. My kids wished the controllers matched (missing the red on this one) but it is a needed item for lots of entertainment.

    This gives you an extra controller for Nintendo Classic. Doesn't look exactly the same but works the same and all buttons are in the same spot.
