8Bitdo N30 2.4Ghz Wireless Mouse for PC Windows and macOS

Awesome retro product, our IT son loves this.

This mouse while not extremely comfortable, which it doesn't look in the pictures anyway, is very cool and performs very well. All my friends thought it looked cheaply made, but after holding it and pushing the buttons appreciated its glory. Upon telling them the scroll wheel was touch, it put the icing on the cake for them. The reason I upped it to a 5 star from a 4 because of it being uncomfortable, is because I dropped mine outside coming in from my car last night and unfortunately it rained last night. The mouse didn't care, I got all the water out of the main body and tried some movement to make sure it wasn't dead and she acted like it was never wet at all. If you like the feel of old game controllers, which we all know were not perfectly designed for human hands (looking at you nintendo) then this is the mouse for you. The tactile feel of the right and left click and convenience of the Dpad have made it my daily driver for anything but the hardiest of gaming.

I have mixed feelings about it. It looks great on my desk, but I can't tolerate using it for long. It functions just fine, and the scroll feature works great. Yet, it just feels odd in my hand. Edit: 12/22/2025, I am adding an additional star after giving this another chance. The more I use it, the more I like it. The awkwardness of its shape seems to become less of an issue over time. I think that my biggest issue with it now is that sometimes the scroll feature is unreliable; it may be either too responsive or not responsive enough. When I have trouble with the scroll feature, I just switch over to using the d-pad. My favorite thing about this mouse is the clicker buttons that provide a neat push tactile experience.

8Bitdo if you read this - I think this is an incredible first step. Is it perffect? Nah not all. Definitely room to grow and I hope this isn't a one time thing (I personally would love to see an SNES inspired version). Plain and simple this is a fun nostalgic mouse meant to be an everyday consumer fun doodad trinket to have. If you have HIGH expectations for the mouse and it's capabilities you will be disappointed. When I saw this I was stoked! There is so much potential for them to do this and do it even better! Could you imagine if they went with a PMW3330 or 3360 sensor? Added a start and select button for DPI and Profiles? Maybe even made an 8Bit - 8Bitdo UI where you could change polling rates to 1k? - Assign macros? What I see is potential for bringing jam up nostalgia like 8Bitdo always does - to a slightly different market. The capacitive scroll wheel is an excellent idea but it falls a little short in practical use. Often it misses and doesn't register the scroll - but more often it over or under scrolls. The hard edge design to keep with the feel of the NES controller is at times not very comfortable - but worth it. I won't mark it less than 5 because they need all the kudos and props to keep this journey up. DO IT 8Bitdo!

Let me just start by acknowledging that this is NOT a gaming mouse. It is gaming-inspired, but not suitable for gaming at all. The main reason for this distinction comes down to the overall functionality of the mouse. While the d-pad on the side is decent for Page Up/Down, and Forward/Back navigation, the issue comes down to the buttons. They work for a video game controller but are very hit-and-miss when you're used to a typical mouse. It also feels a little off for those with shorter fingers, as the design doesn't feel comfortable at all. To add insult to injury, the touch panel scroll wheel seems like a novel concept, until you realize that you can not tap the area as a middle button. There isn't any middle mouse button at all, which cuts into the overall functionality of the mouse. While it may not be seen as a major issue, it is becoming more and more utilized by various programs. This wouldn't be much of a problem if there was a way to remap one of the d-pad buttons, but that does not seem to be the case. This is quite the oversight, as 8bitdo creates quality controllers and peripherals that often feature additional functionality and customizability in some way. Hopefully, they'll look into how to improve the feel and the functionality of the mouse, as it would be nice to use alongside their retro keyboard.

This is by far the best mouse I've ever used for anywhere near this price point. Let me tackle a few key points. A lot of other reviews say the buttons are small and awkward, and while that is true, it only bothered me for a minute or two. After that, I barely even noticed they were different. BUT, since the buttons are smaller and don't wrap over the front like most mice, I have significantly less accidental clicks, and don't get accidental clicks from just bumping things. I don't see this mentioned anywhere in the description, but this is a "use anywhere" mouse. I was using it on a pillow with a very rough texture and it was still tracking perfectly. Not as precise as my dark field primary mouse obviously, but that's a $100+ mouse. The touch pad between the buttons works well in place of the mouse wheel. It definitely feels different, but like the buttons, it didn't take long for me to adjust. Also, the up and down buttons on the d pad on the side are page up and page down, so they make scrolling through web pages easy. I haven't tried anything that needed the Mouse 3 button, so I don't know if it has that functionality. I don't think I would recommend this as a primary mouse unless it's all you can afford. But between the use-anywhere capability, lack of accidental clicks, light weight, properly having a slot for the USB receiver inside the battery compartment, and freaking cool factor, this is a perfect travel mouse. And like I said at the beginning, by FAR the best mouse I've seen at this price point.

I love this. When I first pushed the red buttons I didn’t think I’d like it, no clicks, the shape feels funny at first, so does the directional pad. The sensor portion between the red buttons works perfectly. After an hour or so I realized I was using seamlessly. The A / B buttons are perfect, I used the d-pad more than I thought I would. I use it at work, so it gets a good workout. I love the NES vibe. I have several of 8Bitdo controllers as well, they never strikeout!

Very cool looking mouse, but almost unusable. Touch "scroll wheel" works as poorly as you would expect. It would have worked better if the side d-pad scrolled rather than page up/down.

If you love retro styling like I do and grew up with Nintendo, then this mouse looks absolutely superb. It's also very functional, but really more suited to casual/less frequent users. If you spend all day using a mouse or you want a mouse for PC gaming, then this mouse will fail the ergonomic test badly, hence why I'm dropping a star. I love this mouse because it controls a desktop PC that I only use to start a movie, watch Youtube or maybe look up something on the web while I'm working on my other desktop PC. There was an adjustment period getting use to using buttons for the left and right mouse click instead of having a whole left and right clickable area. But I absolutely love the look of this mouse, especially when it's next to my 8BitDo Retro 108 NES-themed Mechanical Keyboard. If you're a heavy user of the mouse and want a mouse with NES theming, I'd probably consider shelling out for the 8BitDo Retro R8 Mouse N Edition. The price differential is painful, but I think you'll probably be better off in the long run. That mouse seems much more ergonomic and functional for heavy users. But for casual users, this mouse is definitely 5-Star if you like retro NES theming.

Tenho vários produtos da 8bitdo. Esse mouse é apenas retrô, com modelo inspirado no nintendinho, pois não é confortável nem funcional. Quem comprar deve estar ciente disso.

Is limited to 1000dpi, but is very nice great for old schoolers 🤪

This mouse has mixed reviews so I didn't pick it up for a long time, but finally I caved because I didn't want it to disappear because I'd feel like I missed out. Right out of the box, you can tell it's well made, especially for the price. And it looks killer next to the NES themed keyboard - which is really why I bought it. Is it an amazing $200 gaming mouse? No. Is it better than a lot of mice in it's price range? Absolutely. Does it look boss? You better believe it.
