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.

    Recently purchased a NES Classic. Wanted a longer cord on our wired controller. We purchased this one. Happy with it so far.

    So everything is good except.... down button is sketchy. Mario wouldn’t stay crouched and running and sliding under blocks was a PAIN. Seemed to get a little better after use. Noticed this issue with both insignia controllers I bought. Pro: Super long cord, good sale price of $12.99

    Works as expected. The cord is nice and long which is nice considering the one that comes with the NES Classic is so short.

    This controller works great on the NES Classic and does not require a cord extender like the original controller supplied with the console.

    I noticed the length of the cord is great, but the buttons tend to get stuck sometimes and it can definitely hurt your game in that crucial moment. Playing Super Mario Brothers was tricky since the buttons are slightly more raised than the original and the button pressure sometimes gets stuck.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    The long cable helps you to play away from the TV. The regular controller that comes with the console is very short.

    Works as good as the one that comes with the system. The cord is much longer so I prefer this one over the original one.

    Great product and its good to see that bestbuy took into account how short the length of the cable on the original is and made it longer!

    This controller is easier to use, when you consider that the control that came with the NES Classic only had a cable that was 2ft long.
