> 3 dayDefinitely a must-have for the Genesis Mini, or other games on an emulation machine. Mine works great and I’m happy it’s out there for purchase.

> 3 dayI bought this controller fof use with my Steam Mega Drive & Genesis Collection and works perfectly. The quality was good and the buttons are responsive. My first reason to bought a pair is for use with the next Sega Genesis Mini and play the fighting games that requires a six button controller. The international shipment was fast.

> 3 dayThis controller is perfect. It feels just like the original, the materials are of premium quality, the 10ft/3m cable is fantastic, I hate short cables. The D-pad works great, even better than what I expected. The only thing I didnt expect is that when using it on PC it always resets to the default state (D-input) each time you connect it, but its just a matter of pressing start 5 seconds and it goes to X-input, nothing really bad.

> 3 dayI picked recently on retro gaming and become huge Sega fan. I have never had experience with original Sega gamepad so from my novice perspective those gamepad offered great experience. Especially Dpad looks like feels like semi-analogue controller. For those used to Nintendo pads, there is some learning curve. If you really into Sega Genesis games I would definitely recommend this pad.

> 3 dayDont 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.

Greater than one weekThe buttons seem responsive and the controller feels right. Great cord length and I love that it still features an ability to return to the home menu on Genesis Mini. Although I likely wont utilize this feature, I like that the controller can be used with other platforms such as PC and more. The controllers are also officially licensed by Sega, so you can buy with confidence rather than the crapshoot that is usually buying 3rd party controllers for your systems! Highly recommend!

Greater than one weekI bought this so I could play all the Sega Genesis games I downloaded off Steam…with a little bit of configuration in the Steam system…it works like magic…feels just like the old 6 button controllers but has bumper buttons too…can’t wait for the dual analog 10 button Genesis controller to come out…till then…this’ll due just fine

Greater than one weekYup, feels like a Genesis controller to me. Right now its my fightpad of choice. Theres some driver weirdness with my PC - if the pc starts with the controller plugged in, its recognized as a Switch Pro controller, but if I remove it and plug it back in its just a generic D-Input controller. This is annoying, because I have to have different controller bindings for each one. However, if I just leave it plugged in things are right as rain. Definitely worth the money, it makes retro games and fighting games much more enjoyable.
