Retro-Bit Official Sega Genesis USB Controller 6-Button Arcade Pad for Sega Genesis Mini, PS3, PC, Mac, Steam, Switch - USB Port - (Black)

The controller feels good and works great with the new genesis mini system The construction could be a little stronger like the original controllers but for the price its a very nice alternative

Just like the original Sega Genesis Controllers back in the day.

Had to get one since price dropped recently from 25 down to 16 dollars. The Hyperkin one is decent for 13 bucks but this one is top notch for only 3 bucks more. First controller was DOA but sent back and few days later got one that works. It makes playing Castlevania Lecarde Chronicles 2 so much better with the way better d-pad and smoother buttons.

Feels just like an original Sega controler

Feel like a legit sega controler. Love it. Get one I recommend

From a former Genesis gamer, this gamepad is awesome. Looks and feels just like the original, and the d-pad works perfectly with the corners, unless other cheap copies out there. If you like playing Genesis games, is the gamepad to get.

It goes back to when I purchased the Super Retro-Cade console, mainly because it contained a few games Id always wanted a licensed copy of for my collection. A budget emulator console with some flaws and limitations one of which is that it didnt work with a lot of popular controllers. So I took a gamble and got these. Comparing them to my actual vintage 6 button Sega Genesis controllers they are virtually indistinguishable (havent taken them apart to compare the guts) other than the cord. They feel great in your hands, especially if you had nostalgia for the ergonomic Sega style controllers (far superior to anything Nintendo had at the time, yes, even the SNES). The only downside of using these with the Retro-cade is that they dont seem to respond to re-configuring of the buttons. Of course you can use them on your PC which is how most will use them, for emulation. Some have complained about the floating d-pad of these controllers, but honestly it is the same as my vintage 6 button pads for Sega Genesis from the 1990s. I would personally always prefer to plug in my vintage controllers to a real vintage console (or retro console that uses cartridges and not emulation) on my crt tv, but when I am using the Retro-cade these I prefer to the ones that came with it (those hybrid sega/nintendo thingies). The lack of proper reconfiguration is a limitation of the console not the controller. The cord length is just right (many retro consoles get bashed on because they tend to be shorter than their North American counterparts, I guess because Japanese consoles tended to be smaller and had shorter cords I guess so you would be sitting closer to a smaller screen, thats my guess). I also was able to plug them into a USB multi-port hub (self powered) and they still worked.

Very good product for Sega genesis emulator, so far they have done the job.

This controller feels great, it reminds me very much of the original 6 btn controller though with less weight but good quality, it does not feel cheap and you can play SF II on the mini genesis very well. Would buy it again.

This controller broke down on me within a few months. Im a retro streamer on Twitch, and it malfunctioned in the middle of a stream, causing me to have to end the stream. Upon taking it apart, I was appalled to find that the rubber buttons had completely separated from the rubber block, causing the controller to jam on particular buttons whenever they were pressed, as they had no spring-back to go from the pressed position back to the ready position. Terrible, sub-par product.
