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.

    It's smaller than expected but does the job. This is a must for Street fighter 2.

    I was excited to see they had made this controller for the Genesis mini. I exclusively played with controller as a kid and it just brings back so many memories.

    If you plan on playing fighting games like Street Fight II or Mortal Combat you really should get the six button controller. Feel just like the original very nice quality would recommend in a heartbeat.

    this is basically for the fighting games in the sega genesis mini and its just amazing to have the option to use a classic 6 button control pad! but not necessarily a must because not all games utilize 6 buttons

    Great controller and great price if you can grab it on sale. Wish Sega included these with the Genesis Mini but I guess the 3-buttons can be a backup. Recommend for any Genesis Mini owner.

    I got this to use on my classic mini consoles, the Playstation Classic to be specific. Some games need the buttons to be remapped but works great after, especially for fighting games.

    A fun item to speed up your game, but unfortunately I am not a good enough player to make full use of it. I bought it for a original NES and it worked perfect.

    I have to admit, at first I thought this was an 8bitdo controller but it isnt, I guess I was in such a hurry to buy it that I didnt notice it was from a different company. It still works great on the sega genesis mini

    Works great with the Genesis mini. They should have included this in the box, not the 3 button one. One complaint is the "mode" button is in an inopportune spot (where modern controller's right shoulder button is). I hit it more than a few times by mistake.

    Looks and feels good. It gives me to feel I was wanting playing my retro games. That said it doesn't not work well with Laaka on Raspberry Pi 4. I have to reset the controls after each games / restart.
