Retro-Bit Sega Genesis 2.4 Ghz Wireless Controller for Sega Genesis Original/Mini, Switch, PC, Mac - Includes Controller, 2 Receivers & Storage Case (Black)

Very well made and comfortable to use . A nice experience for those of us who grow up with the Sega genesis/Megadrive

An ideal product. The 2.4-GHz version has less input lag than the Bluetooth version (I experienced no perceivable lag while using the 2.4-GHz version), and the controller just feels great. Exactly like the original, except wireless. Its nice that this version comes with the adapters as well, so you can use it with the original console or with newer compatible systems.

The cool thing about the Sega Genesis wireless controllers, that you can use it in without any cords. The battery life is more than superb, I think you can get up to about 100 hours off of one charge or something insane like that so I went and bought a iceberg blue one and the regular black one. It also has an adapter for if you wanted to plug it in to the original Sega Genesis console, thats if you still have one hahaha Ive been perfectly fine with my purchases you should get one too!

Made of a nice hard plastic, buttons are receptive to commands. Inputs happen with zero noticeable lag. Fantastic controller for any retro gamer who is tired of cables making the retro set up look like crap. Love these controllers!

Muy buen control y estoy satisfecho con el desempeño la verdad es muy recomendable

After trying out and buying the retrobit saturn bluetooth controller and being blown away at the build quality i bought a pair of these genesis 2.4 my mega retron hd. I will get a genesis mini during christmas and i can use these for that as well. Pairs up right away no hiccups, plays great. I play alot of shmups that require alot of accurate bullet dodging and these passed with flying colors. Recommended 100%.

I would rate it 3.5 stars if I could. It feels like an original genesis controller in terms of ergonomics and quality. The buttons and d-pad feel just as good as the original as well. The only issues are the controller charges via mini USB. I would have preferred USB-C but its not a big deal. The other issue is pairing. Sometimes it pairs on start up and sometimes it requires one of the three methods for pairing. It gets a little frustrating when you just want to power up and jump into a game but you have to take five minutes to get it connected.

Pros: Authentic style and feel, additional shoulder buttons, Genesis and USB bluetooth adapters included, good response time, decent battery life Cons: High cost Bottom Line: These are the best Bluetooth controllers available for the Genesis. These can also be used on the Genesis classic via the USB Bluetooth adapters thats included. The addition of shoulder buttons makes the controller more versatile as you can use it for retro gaming on several other consoles. I feel the pricepoint though is a bit high as there are better options out there for retro gaming at a cheaper rate. If you want a solid Genesis specific controller though, this is the way to go.

So recently I got the Mega SG from Analogue. Ive been using my official old wired 6 Button Genesis controller. But you know I wanted to try a wireless option. I saw that these were also officially licensed by Sega so I was like sure Ill give them a shot. And I must say Im extremely impressed. While the buttons and D-pad were slightly stiffer than a 25+ year old controller, the weight and feel of it were nearly identical. So much so I actually forgot I wasnt using my old wired controller and was using the new controller I bought. Just because it wasnt as loose as my original pad, doesnt mean it didnt perform just as well, and in a similar function. No D-pad issues, no button issues. No problems doing SRKs and Hadoukens in Street Fighter. It also is extremely fast to sync up. Over all Id give the controller a 10 out of 10. For being extremely faithful to the original, no input delay that I could tell, and it was extremely easy syncing up with the receivers. Though admittedly Ive only used the Genesis receiver, and not the usb one that also came with it. My only minor issue I had was trying to update the firmware in the Genesis Receiver. But it ended up working in the end, and was actually probably my computer, more so than the devices fault.

I purchased this wireless controller recently to use with my PC and I was hoping it would also work with my Atari. Great news! It works. So lets start with the good things: The look and the packaging are both outstanding. It comes with a nice case that holds the controller, the 2 dongles, USB cord and manual. It works with a wide variety of systems, including the Atari 2600 and 7800 (one-button only). I have yet to test on my Atari computer and original Genesis, but those should work fine with it too. Now for some not-so-good things: the controller is very light, which seems a bit odd. I never had this particular model of wired Genesis controller, so I cant really compare it though. Actually the only Genesis controller I have is a wired Hyperkin 6-button which is bigger and seems heavier. They could have put some weights in it. Just sayin. But the worst thing about this controller has to do with pairing. It should be automatic, and many times it is not. The controller and receiver lose their connection somewhat quickly when power is shut off to the system, then they need to be paired again by holding down buttons on both the dongle and controller. This is not so much of an issue on the PC, where you can switch games and emulators quickly without ever shuttling down the system, but with a console, you typically have to. I found that on the Atari 2600, if you swap out cartridges quickly (within 10 seconds or so) it will usually automatically re-pair itself. It didnt always do that on the Atari 7800 however and I had to fight with the pairing buttons again. Also, with emulators on the PC, you will have to go into the settings and manually configure some of them (for example, in Stella, you will have to set the inputs to move up or down manually). Anyway, for $35, I was expecting a little better. For a comparison, the Blue Lake wireless PS2 controllers, while not Genesis compatible, are half the price, work great with PCs, and always pair automatically.
