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.

    I bought an extra controller for my wife so we would each have our own controllers instead of constantly handing off one controller. The controller has the same look and feel as it did back in "85" when it was first released. Definitely worth the $10 to pick up the extra controller if you have multiple people playing.

    The controller works just like the original controller for NES. The cord needs to be longer, though. You really can't use it without the extender.
