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 picked up one of these since the NES Classic only comes with one controller. The buttons are kinda sticky and precision movement with the D-pad is very difficult. It'll do in a pinch, but it's definitely not the best way to play.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
