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.

    Got the controller on sale for $4.99. I don't believe it is worth anymore than that. Does the job and is much longer than the original controller that comes with the NES classic.

    I purchase this as a secondary game pad for my NES Classic because it was fairly inexpensive and had a longer cable, unlike the Original offering by Nintendo. However, as the saying goes “You get what you paid for”. The quality is poor and the controls do not register the entries properly... Stay away from this product and buy a Authentic Nintendo pad and extension instead.

    This controller is better than most of the other third-party controllers I've tried but it still feels different than the Nintendo one. Not too bad considering the price.
