Customers are saying

Customers highly value the wireless functionality and extended range of this SNES/NES Classic controller, frequently praising its ease of use and compatibility with both systems. While some users noted occasional connection or responsiveness issues, many found the battery life to be satisfactory and the price reasonable. The bulkier size compared to the original controllers was also a point of discussion among some users.

    Must-have for NES/SNES Classics

    I picked up one of these to go along with the Classic systems purchased for Christmas (ostensibly for the kids but really wound up being for me). Tried the wired controllers first which worked fine but as most everyone notes, the wires are not long enough for most situations. This worked so well that I purchased a second the next day.

    Delayed Response

    Returned this product to Best Buy today. I've had other 3rd party wireless controllers for other systems that had a small lag in button-to-screen response, but not anywhere near as bad as this controller. Tried it on both my NES Classic and SNES Classic systems. The delay in response made games on both systems unplayable. I want to like this product as the OEM controller cords are not long enough as we all know, but I cannot recommend this wireless controller.

    This thing worked for about a week but now has trouble connecting if I’m more than a few feet from the SNES classic. Second Insignia product in a row that has had defects.

    Avoid third party controllers

    Avoid third party controllers. They usually break and are of inferior quality to first party controllers.
