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.

    This is a suitable extra controller for the NES mini system, but the first one I had would stop working. Even unplugging and replugging wouldn’t fix it. Exchanged it for a new one, and so far the replacement has been fine. Keep your receipt!
