8Bitdo Sn30 2.4G Wireless Gamepad for Original SNES/Sfc (Transparent Edition)

This game controller worked great right out of the box. Seem to be no latency issues and is a great solid wireless game controller. Everything works great on it and it charges up very quickly and easily and I played for 5 hours straight and seems to still work without needing to be charged yet. It's a great game controller for the SNES console. Also all the buttons and the navigation control all seem built with great quality.

What can I say besides this is the best wireless controller I’ve ever used with a retro console!! So happy with this controller I’m tempted to buy several and hoard em lol. I’ve tried so many wireless controllers in the past years, mainly Bluetooth and they all suck with the lag!! These being 2.4 ghz i believe make all the difference!! These are very good quality and if you’re looking for a good controller, they are well worth the money and the battery life is great. These also charge via USB-C so very convenient! You won’t be looking for a charger any time soon anyway unless you’re playing 24/7. Pairing is instant! Just press the button to turn it on and boom you’re done, no having to press a sync button or anything. I paired mine with Hyperkin’s Retron 5 console and it’s amazing!! I’d always heard these 8bitDo controllers were the best and now I’m a true believer! If you’re looking for a good one, look no further. No sense in buying two or three of something else only to trash them and come back here, save yourself the time and money and get one of these, you won’t be sorry! Highly recommend!

Having purchased the Genesis controller in the past I already knew the quality of the product and this is no different. The weight and overall feel is exactly like an original SNES controller. There isn't any noticeable input delay, the buttons feel good and its really a 10/10 wireless experience. Big fan of 8Bitdos work and quality.

I am a really big fan of this controller. It feels nearly identical to an OEM SNES controller but it's new and it's wireless. It's really easy to use, you just plug the receiver into your Super Nintendo and press the start button on the controller. Mine paired up right away with no issues. The console recognizes it exactly as if it were an original controller. Button layout is the same and everything. I love the throwback look of the translucent plastic, I hope 8Bitdo eventually makes it in more colors as well. This uses a 2.4GHz wireless connection, which has almost no input delay. I had tried 8Bitdo's Bluetooth SNES controllers before, and there was a slightly noticeable delay, and pairing was sometimes challenging. With this, both of those issues are resolved. The other problem with their Bluetooth version was for some reason the d-pad didn't feel quite right, it was kind of mushy and wouldn't always feel right when trying to change directions quickly like in Street Fighter 2 or making corners in Super Bomberman. As far as I can tell, this revision has solved those issues as well, so the eliminated input lag and the better d-pad means the inputs feel precise like they should. My only very minor gripe is that these recharge via micro-USB. I wish it was USB-C to be consistent with most of my other devices, however it works and feels so good that I can deal with that, because it's breathed new life into my SNES collection now that I can enjoy it without running cords all the way from my TV to my couch.

I can’t believe how well this works. Highly recommend. It feels and responds like the OEM controllers, but it’s wireless! Also the controller synced up immediately, no issues.

This controller is great! Looks awesome, works great, and keeps the room looking less messy.

This product is amazing. I can play cord-free now. All buttons/shoulder pads work great. Comes with everything you need, charges just fine in about 1 1/2 hrs. Recommend this product.

I have been, for almost 10 years now, looking for the best ways to modernize my retro console setups. I have slowly, over the years, accepted that CRT displays are only becoming more and more rare. And that our wired controllers will degrade, and even with new parts and upkeep, still eventually stop feeling right or correct, and become ultimately obsolete. The biggest issue for me playing and loving these retro consoles, is lag with modern displays and wireless tech. Playing games like Mega Man X, and other precision platformers, is simply a pain in the ass with lag, especially for the tried and true retro gamers that play them a LOT and feel even the tiniest lag, like myself. It can make these games feel unplayable. Even official re-releases have these lag issues. Look no further, friend. I have tried many displays and wireless controllers. 8bitdo never disappoints. The SN30 Pro and Pro 2 have long been in my hands, and I picked this SN30 up for my SNES... I am impressed. I DID have to update the firmware. Initially, I had a good feel of lag on the controller. I was playing this, hooked into an original US NES, running via HD Retrovision Component cables to my RetroTink 4K, into my LG B4 OLED. I felt the lag, just slight, but it was there. AFTER updating the firmware, it is much better, if not eliminated. THE UPDATE IS IMPORTANT. It is the best feeling third party controller I have found to date. It is hard to pick a favorite between 8bitdo, Retrobit, and Retrofighters, as all have their pros and cons. But out of them all, 8bitdo is always my first choice when it's available - I own 4 of their controllers now, and I love them all.

Exactly as described. I charged them up, plugged the receivers into my 33 year old SNES and away it went. No stuffing around with anything… just instant connection and instant play with no noticeable lag. They feel like very decent quality too so I’m hoping they last quite a while. I would hesitate to purchase more of these or even look at what other products this company has.

Está EXCELENTE…!!! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 Se siente de muy buena calidad, los botones súper bien. Se conecta de inmediato, funciona perfectamente, sin retrasos de nada. Me encantó. Muchas gracias 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

excelente qualidade, 8bitdo é perfeito Conecta super de boa e funciona perfeitamente, mais confortável que os originais

Amazing product. Feels and plays like the oem controller. The colours are cool too. Never felt lag and the battery life is good to go for a few days. Would buy again any days.

If you are reading this review, buy this controller. Feels just like the original, i can't feel any lag at all. Just played through donkey kong country 2 and mega man x and didn't notice any lag. 8bitdo, if you are reading this, please sell an N64 version just like this!
