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.

    Bought it so second player isn't stuck with a 3rd party controller. Only the best for the poor fools who challenge me!

    Bought this for my grandson so he could experience what we had as our game controllers back in the day. He likes it.

    Love the controller and the mini nintendo set, but the controller is also mini and thus the cord is very short. Have to sit very close to the TV

    Great if you have a NES Classic; it will bring back the nostalgic memories for those old enough to remember the NES.

    I finally found one and it's great. You can't beat playing with an original game pad (if you're lucky to find one)!!

    With the 2p games that come with the classic you have to grab one of these to get the benefit. Drawback - short cord

    Since the Classic NES only comes with one controller you kind of have to buy it if you want to play 2 player games.

    Don't bother with the cheap knock-offs floating around. The official controller made by Nintendo is the one to get.

    This is needed for the system. Many of the games can use 2 controllers and 2 players. Make the most of the system!

    Great in every way EXCEPT the cable length is so short you’ll find yourself sitting right up next to your screen. Buy the extension cables!!!
