Retroflag Classic Wired USB Gaming Controller Support XINPUT, DINPUT Mode and Turbo Function Compatible with Raspberry Pi, Windows, Switch J Pad

I can't emphasize it enough, but this controller from Retroflag is the best and most comfortable I've tried yet. I've bought many third party controllers before and a lot of them are subpar to practically worthless, but this is by far the closest I've felt compared to a real SNES controller. The weight is perfect, the d-pad is perfectly textured with the proper beveled edges, and the buttons push exactly the way that they're designed to push. I will admit that the face buttons sound a tad bit clicky when pressed, but I'm not that peeved by it. They're comfortable to press, and that's really all that matters to me.This is the end-all third party USB SNES controller to pick up, and it's great for the RetroPie. Forget those iBuffalos, I used to think they were the best.. but this conquers the iBuffalo.PS: If anyone was curious, the controller is read as a Microsoft XBOX 360 controller when plugged into the RetroPie.

Purchased the Jpad. Sturdy construction and nice weight. The buttons and dpad of the controller i received feel exactly like an original Super Famicom controller. This has, I believe a 6 foot cable, alot better than the 2.5 ft of the original. L and R buttons are sturdy, which is one of the first things I notice in a cheap snes clone controller. I use this on a raspberry pi 3b running recalbox, and everything works flawlessly. No accidental inputs, and very responsive. An ABSOLUTELY GREAT controller for the price.

I was looking for a good SNES controller for emulation and I had heard great things about this Retroflag one so I purchased it and WOW! It's almost exactly like the original SNES controllers and even feels a little bit heavier! The weight is great, the buttons and the d-pad are excellent (I was amazed at how well it handled games like Contra 3...gameplay was just awesome with this Retroflag SNES controller).The Retroflag SNES controller came in a nice little box and you can select between DINPUT or XINPUT so make sure you read the back of the box for the directions on how to switch between the two (which is a nice feature being able to switch).I highly recommend this controller if you're looking for the best SNES controller for emulation (or just gaming period!).

Playing Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Classic Ninja Gaiden games was nearly flawless. This controller is better then the overpriced "Buffalo classic pad" that's for sure. I would place this controller in 3rd place almost a tie with the iNNEXT one's.These are my favorite retro controllers and are the best in my opinion.8Bitdo SN30 Pro+ Bluetooth capable and a great D-pad.For a cheaper alternative and the D-pad is also great, the iNNEXT 2 Pack SNES Retro USB Super gamepad.

The iBuffalo classic has been my go-to gamepad for SNES games for years now. They are solid, well-built, have a nice feel to the buttons and d-pad, and work well with most games and emulators. I came across this guy, and when I saw the concave Y+X buttons, font, and colors like the OG NA SNES controller I grew up with, I knew it had to be mine.This is a great controller. The buttons and d-pad are solid, it has a good weight and material feel, and the looks are spot on. Besides that, it has both xinput and dinput modes and is automatically recognized and mapped correctly in more games and emulators than the iBuffalo (and the layout is a little more intuitive than say the Retrobit Genesis controllers which also support xinput and dinput). Is it better? That depends. the iBuffalo's buttons have a much lighter press, almost too light (I've had them for years though, maybe they are just broken-in?). But, for my little arthritis hands, I do find it somewhat more comfortable for longer play sessions. But, the retroflag's buttons do feel a little more solid and direct (dare I say more accurate to the original), but they do require a little more force to actuate. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either controller. If you want a bit lighter touch, the iBuffalo may be the better option. But, if you want incredible out-of-the-box plug-n-play game compatibility, the aesthetics of the North American SNES controller, and a bit heavier press, you can't go wrong with the Retroflag.

The controller itself is extremely close to the original. It has a good weight and the feel is top notch.However the D-pad is overly sensitive and will get you killed in game with inputs you're not pressing.This is especially bad with UP/DOWN when pressing LEFT/RIGHT.Eventually your controller will stop working. The USB will connect and reconnect in a loop. This is NOT the controller.It is the cord.And it is NOT the connection inside the controller (like from tugging). It is the ACTUAL cord that fails.DO NOT WRAP YOUR CORD AROUND THE CONTROLLER WHEN YOU'RE NOT USING IT -- THIS WILL EXPEDITE CORD FAILURE (from wire crimping, I'm assuming)It's too bad the D-pad sucks, this is a great controller otherwise (while it works)

i game tested it and works well, pressing inputs from the buttons, shoulder buttons, and directional pad perform awesome so far. the form and shape fit comfortably, it is a great value for the cost. easy plug and play on the computer, i recommend this
