Since the NES comes with one control only, had to purchase the second one. Fun times!

The nes only comes with one controller so of course you need a 2nd controller for the 2 player games.

Works great, just as expected. Cords could be slightly longer but does not take away from playing.

Just like the old controller I remember. However, the cord is very short. Also, I forgot how much it hurt against your hand as opposed to newer more comfortable designs.

Wireless would be sweet too, but with todays big TV's, you need the 6' extensions to enjoy the NES Classic (only comes with 1 controller so don't forget the extra one!)

Add on for the NES to allow two player matches. Not expensive and definitely a must for the NES.

if you can find it buy it, you always can use extras, it's so cheap at 9.99 but impossible to find.

Previously I purchased an imitation NES controller but the buttons didn't work correctly and the directional cross was spongy and didn't work accurately.
The authentic controller that I purchased from Best Buy worked liked the original (when I was a young young kid), and it works like it supposed to with accurate tactile responses..

It is exactly what you see. A corded controller and it works. The cord is short so buy extensions.
