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.
