Retro-Bit Official Sega Genesis USB Controller 8-Button Arcade Pad for Sega Genesis Mini, Switch, PC, Mac, Steam, RetroPie, Raspberry Pi - USB Port - Black

Ive tried a lot of so-called Sega USB gamepads, and none of them match the quality of this product. It is exactly what you have been missing, you will remember immediately the feel of a real Sega Genesis game pad. The size is right, the cable is super long with a very thick gauge that wont likely fall apart, even the weight is right, they did everything correctly with this product, and the price is reasonable. Make sure you enable XINPUT for better compatibility. Just hold START + B for 5 seconds. Works well with Sonic Mania for PC, and Kega Fusion.

The cord is a bit longer than I thought but still it works well!

Dont bother playing Contra Hard Corps because its impossible to shoot up without moving left or right. If you try to duck you will just move and stand up, which will make you lose your prone position. It was foolish of me to buy the USB one for emulator practice after the console version of this controller had the same exact problem. It does look great and its still a good backup controller. The buttons all feel good and work well, and the d-pad is ok for some games that dont require super precision.

EXCELLENT controller!! My computer recognized it immediately and the buttons were automatically mapped to default configuration. Also was very easy to change the mapping!

A controller that feels authentic for your genesis games. This is the real deal. -Amazing D-pad. -Responsive buttons -Great shape -Authentic genesis controller size & weight Theres a reason Sega put their seal of quality on this. Plugs in via USB and is perfect for your genesis mini (plus works on PC, Switch, etc.) The added L and R shoulder buttons are a great option to have, as well as the mode button which can act as a SELECT stand-in for certain games. Cord length is generous, and made of a flexible material. Overall? Incredible recreation of this classic design, strongly recommended for classic Sega fans. MY ONLY COMPLAINT: One of the two controllers I ordered (got one black and one clear blue) arrived with shipping labels straight on the packaging for the controller itself. No outer box, no bag, just the controller box with labels stuck right on the face of it. With some patience I was able to peel it off with nothing left ruining the box art, but that certainly wasnt ideal. More of a warehouse issue than anything to do with this controller, really. The other controller I received arrived in a bag, in perfect condition. The product itself, and retro-bit in general are definitely worthy purchases. Game on, gamers.

I was a bit hesitant to buying this controller at first due to Retro-Bit being the manufacturer (lets just say they normally dont make the best quality stuff), but after spending some time with this, I have to say that Im impressed. The buttons and the D-pad are nice and responsive. My only real nitpicks are the USB cord being a bit too long for my liking (its about ten feet long, personally wouldve been fine if it was six feet) and that the new shoulder buttons they added are a bit too sensitive but your millage may vary.

Really liked this controller

If you had a Sega 6 button back in the day and you love playing retro games or modern fighting games, you need this controller. Ive been using it on my PC with Mednafin Saturn, reDream and RetroArch. It works perfectly for what I need and takes me back to the good old days. Highly recommended. -Retro Ryu-

Great product with a very long cord. Quick tip, the mode button will reset the genesis mini back to the game select screen.

Works very well. Love the original look with a few extra buttons to assign to my emulators menu and state save/load functions. When playing NBA Jam, its easy to find the diagonal directions when I want to move that way. Highly recommend. If you dont like the extra buttons and want an even more original look, they are releasing a version without the extra buttons when the genesis mini is released.
