Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about the SEGA Genesis 6-Button Arcade Pad's quality, button layout, and compatibility with various systems including PC, Mac, and consoles. Many appreciate the controller's comfortable feel, reminiscent of the original Genesis controller, and its long cord. While some found it slightly smaller than expected, the positive feedback on its functionality and design outweighs this minor concern. The ease of use and USB connectivity are also frequently praised.

    Forget wasting money on cheap imitations. If you're into retro gaming, on a computer or otherwise this is the way to go. The controller is the perfect copy of the old 6-button for the Genesis, which was required for some games, but works just as well in 3-button configurations too. Note: Some people complained about the location of the "mode" button (on the shoulder) but unless you're that accustomed to resting your fingers there, it shouldn't be an issue.
