The classic NES only comes with one controller so this is a must have. $10 isn't bad at all. That is if they still have them in stock!!

You have to get the original controller so there’s no lag input. Finally was able to grab this after the rerelease of the Classic NES.

Insanely rare but great price. Grabbed one quickly before they sold out. Now I can enjoy old school gaming with my family and buds!

Since the system only comes with one controller I needed to get another one. Works great and takes me back to the good ole’ days!

Really wish they made the cable longer. If you get it, you'll more than likely get extension cables, like I did. Just get one of the off brand with longer cables.

I bought to have a matching set. Honestly would prefer a wireless controller, but wanted OEM original style for this system.

Great additional controller

This is great. A must for 2-player games. Only down side, and the reason for the 4-star rating, is the chord length as it's exactly like the controller that comes with the NES. Extensions are a must for these.

The controller is as expected but the cable seems short, complaint that i have read a lot lately. However it is a great feeling to share the joy of the 90's back

Good but buttons are a little mushy

Even though this is a first party controller the buttons all feel quite a bit mushier than the buttons on the controller that actually came with my NES classic. A little disappointing but still very usable.

Must buy if you own the classic. Shame that it didn’t come with two controllers but for the price it’s not a huge deal.

I needed a second and original controller for my NES classic console. eBay had cheaper products but can’t trust their qualities

Purchased in store and got lucky with it being the last one. I didn’t want a third party controller. This works like it should.

NES Classic only comes with one controller so this was sort of required. Exactly the same as the one that comes with the console.

The range on these are better than I thought. My only problem would be that they do lose connection, sometimes during play.
