Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the positive aspects of the NES Classic Edition controller, including its faithful recreation of the original design and feel, excellent compatibility with the system, and high-quality construction. Many appreciate its functionality for multiplayer gaming, making it ideal for two-player experiences. However, a common complaint centers around the short cord length. A few users also noted occasional lag, and some perceived the controller as slightly smaller than the original.

    The controller is perfect. It is much better than the knock off brand controllers for the Nintendo classic.

    I bought an extra control because I don't like to play alone. I works great. I enjoy all the games.

    Classic feel. Love the controller but who sits 2 ft from a flatscreen? It’s like they just want to sell extensions and make more money.

    This is a great controller--the feel is perfect and as close to the original as it could be IMO.

    What can you say, it is a controller and it works. The cord is short so expect to sit close to the console.

    System isn't nearly as fun without a second controller. Luckily, these are very reasonably priced..if you can find them.

    Perfect replica of the original NES controller. The cord is ridiculously short so get the extensions. It's not an exaggeration... VERY SHORT. That's the only downside.

    This has a very familiar feel and function, which is probably the design intent. The only issue is it is about 85% of the original size, so it take some getting used to.
